This venue is absolutely flawless! We hired the space for a company meeting along with 16 rooms the night before and everything from the initial sent to the moment we checked out was perfection. Every single member of staff you meet is friendly, efficient, professional and goes above and beyond. The rooms are absolutely outstanding, I can't want to stay in one again because the beds are the comfiest I've ever slept in. The catering team for the meeting are world-class, regular refreshments available throughout the morning and then the lunch. What can I say apart from WOW! Every single person agreed the food was spectacular. Honestly, don't bother looking anywhere else for your venue, just message Jacob and book it now!
