Stunning building wonderful food and service

We had our wedding breakfast here for 38 day guests and 80 evening guests after our wedding with an after party in the evening- the staff although a bit slow to respond in the early days - ramped up their professional approach as we drew closer to the day - the room set up was stunning- the food was the best some of our guests had tasted and plentiful with the wine and Prosecco- would recommend
