50th Birthday Party · 30 guests · November 2025
The venue is gorgeous, and so were the platters of food we ordered for my 50th Birthday last Saturday. It is also worth mentioning the staff were excellent and VERY attentive to our attendees on the night. Can't recommend enough 10/10 on everything!
Nothing to dislike only positive feedback.
