Great venue and the event manager was excellent and very responsive. They had a fast turnaround from another event before ours and they did an amazing job at getting everything ready for us. It was great to have our own room private room and cloakroom. I had great feedback on the party from the guests and everyone enjoyed themselves. The buffet was a bit late being served but when the food arrived it looked great. However those at the back of the queue did miss out on some items but that could be down to hungry guests serving themselves a bit more as it looked so good! Would definitely consider booking there again for future events.
