Venue and service was fabulous. Cariad was on hand at all times if we needed anything. Food was lovely and we were catered for very well throughout the day. Venue location is spot on for us and has enough parking for us (group of 70) plus lovely view from our conference room on to the pitch , nice and green and open instead of staring at 4 walls :-) Will be using again the future, thanks.
