Communication from enquiries to booking was excellent with the team. The venue was perfect and suited our party of approx 60 guests perfectly. Lovely food - guests all commented on how nice the chicken was and wished there was more of it! Thanks for accommodating our dietary requirements. Nice to have drink packages to choose from
Not much really. It would have been helpful to know of any events in the area beforehand so we could have made guests aware re parking and in hindsight I should have looked into that.
