Absolutely great. Was a last minute booking in the same week, but Susan and all were very helpful and accommodating. Bar staff were really useful at helping with our event and the projector/sound worked well. Really appreciate how easy it all was - thanks!

Lovely venue, staff were great

projector broke midway through our last presentation. The staff were great and tried to help get it fixed but in the end the speaker just held his laptop in the air

Great flexible staff, nice big space that was perfect value for money for what we needed.

It would have been nice to clear some of the tables and chairs out the room but there wasn't anywhere to put them. Not a deal breaker at all though in the end.

Friendly staff, great space, perfect for a book launch
