Communication throughout was brilliant. The team (both booking staff and floor staff) were all very helpful and made organising an event very smooth. The whole event went without a hitch.

Private Dining · 18 guests · June 2024 · The Shed

Brilliant team, perfect space, excellent food, the bride was very happy with her hen do! Very good value for money, would highly recommend. Also included music for dancing and a TV screen for playing a slideshow, we couldn’t have been happier. I looked at lots of places a bit more central, they were all outrageously expensive and only available for a few hours. The Clissold Arms was perfect.
