Reviews and ratings

(20 reviews and ratings – )

Great feedback from clients

- Really comfortable venue for team meeting - Tech (including video and sound) all worked perfect - Staff (Erica) was on hand to help with any queries / set up for success, made a great effort to make sure never let wanting for anything - Catering was a great mix of options and a real success - Sound was really good in the room (was worried about noise and creaking hard wood floors - but not a problem)

Softer close on the door - so less disruptive for those coming in and out. (minor and easy to fix)

Excellent host, and facilities adequate for our needs, great value, will use again.

Friendly welcome and an amazing space! Huge thank you to the team, and Erica, who ensured everything was perfect for the day.

No negatives! I wasn't exactly sure on how to find the space but Erica shared detailed instructions before I could even ask. Thank you.
