My daughter's wedding was held here, ceremony, reception and party after. All was conducted with efficiency and expertise by the staff, and special mention to Chris, who organised everything superbly.

Down, but with modern facilities, good food and outstanding customer service. The staff are very well trained, both in the restaurant and at reception... More
