Workshop · 10 guests · September 2025
The meeting room was fantastic – in a great location that was easy to access, and the facilities were excellent. The staff were incredibly attentive, providing outstanding service throughout the entire day and ensuring everything ran smoothly. Overall, an excellent experience and a venue I would highly recommend for meetings or events.
The only minor point was that the catering portions per person for lunch, felt a little small. Other than that everything was great.
