An outstanding experience from start to finish. We booked the space over three separate days for a sit-down interview, and it exceeded all expectations. The space is as impressive as the photos suggest – even larger in person. It was exceptionally quiet, making it perfect for filming. The Woolly Mammoth team were fantastic, providing all the information and support we needed, and guiding us seamlessly through every stage of the process, right up to check-out. Booking was effortless thanks to their attention to detail. We’ll absolutely be using this venue again for future shoots.
