Birthday Party · 30 guests
The venue was stunning, a perfect 30th birthday venue in central London that felt very private and also very beautiful. All my guests had lots of compliments for the space. It didn’t need any decoration to improve the space for my event. The caretaker was on hand to help but also left us alone, which was good. The space is definitely worth visiting as it’s much better and bigger than the pictures too and included more outdoor area than I was expecting. It works well both in summer and winter as the space is cozy inside and the garden was lovely too.
Had to bring my own speaker for music but it does specify this on the ad.
