The space is beautiful, warm and welcoming. Jez was so helpful. Can't wait to do another event in this wonderful space again.
Spacious, comfortable, warm, good decor, clean. Already had table and chairs that we needed. Sound system and speakers in venue too. Host was excellent.
Very communicative host, and very helpful on arrival and set up. The venue was warm, spacious and calm, with good self-catering facilities. Close to tube (5 minutes) and close to supermarkets and cafes. I will definitely use it again.
