It is our policy to provide you with just the right kind of space and setting to suit your individual requirements. In the same way, we have no exclusive contracts with suppliers of catering, entertainment etc. which leaves you free to use those that you prefer. Nevertheless, we are able to supply refreshments or light meals if required for all but the largest of events and we are always happy to advise you about local outside suppliers whom we know to be reliable.
