Birthday Party · 70 guests · May 2026 · Event Space

Definitely worth the value for money! The staff were also lovely and supportive on the day and my guests had so much fun. The space was also quite spacious.

I was informed by my coordinator that the venue manager was insisting on a minimum spend on the day but this wasn’t in my contract and the “no minimum spend” was what attracted me to the venue. It was eventually sorted but I think better communication would be appreciated next time.
