Lovely room. Lots of natural light and a really nice setting for our team offsite.
We only ordered coffee with the catering. Although we knew that we would have to clean up our external catering, we were pretty surprised that the dishwasher did not even fit the plates in and therefore we needed to wash them by hand!!
