Great event and location was fab, the staff were really friendly and helpful. The bar staff were super efficient. All in all an excellent event and I would recommend for a work do or private event.
The staff serving the food weren't telling the groups what each bowl food was. The food wasn't very hot. The tannoy / PA system can only be herd on the dancefloor, would of been good if this could have been heard on the main deck.
