Support from the team was incredible- helped facilitate all our questions quickly and efficiently.
The pictures of the venue are very out of date- I booked it because of the painted wall at the back of the ball court but this has been painted over a while ago so was no longer there which really effected my hire. Small problems with the catering- although it says that you cater for gluten free etc, to my mind that is to provide a whole gluten free meal if thats what is ordered- what actually happened was that all 8 people had to eat gluten free wraps- (no one was very happy about not getting normal bread) there was 1 vegetarian so the whole offering was made to be vegetarian. On the elements that did have gluten there was no none gluten alternative offered- so no desert element to the gluten free eater. It would be different if when you book you are able to take food in but if food has to be provided by the location then if a gluten free option is ordered there should be a gluten free option for each thing on that menu- and the whole group shouldn't have to eat gluten free as well. Also one of the plates of food went missing for an hour so we didnt have enough for quite a while.
