The staff could not have done more to make our day more special... All day long, the staff worked tirelessly to cater for our needs. The food was perfect... Everyone attending enjoyed the atmosphere and ambience. We had a perfect day made even better by the fabulous staff.

A smooth wake
We made a booking to hold a wake. We visited and spoke to the manager who was very helpful and made some suggestions to help the wake go smoothly. It all went very well on the day. We received a lot of compliments on the lovely food and there was plenty to go round. Thank you!
