Brilliant communication before and after the event. The space was beautiful and exactly as advertised, and represented brilliant value for money given the location. The catering was spot on too. Staff were very friendly and helpful on the day in helping me get the room organised

We hosted a workshop at The Drawing Room, and everything exceeded expectations. The space was ideal, the atmosphere was great, and Susan was incredibly helpful throughout. Would definitely book again for future events. Highly recommend!
