We booked Armada House for a team training day after comparing with similar hotel conference rooms in the area; it was by far the best value. It is only a 15-20 minute walk from the train station so location suited us. We were travelling from all over so needed to be reasonably close to the station. The contact before the event was fantastic, very informative and quick to respond. The venue was lovely and had everything we required. The food was delicious and multiple people from my team approached me to praise it specifically. The staff were very helpful and made sure our day ran smoothly. A big thank you from me. I know the venue do weddings too; it really is a lovely venue, I would definitely consider it if I was looking for a wedding venue.

The WiFi wasn't really sufficient for our needs. It was fine when we were just presenting but when we were attempting to do some group work it let us down. For me this isn't a big negative but one of my team did mention it; there's no parking at the venue. A compromise I'm sure most will make for such a great venue.
