We have had Sunday lunch several times and always a beautiful meal with great service from staff. Recently we hired the venue room for a birthday party and it was fantastic. We were able to provided catering ourselves, decorate the room the way we wanted it, there was facilities for slide show and providing our own music nothing was too much trouble. Staff were extremely helpful we had our own bar, toilets just a great place to make a great get together.
