I organised a christmas dinner for a medium to large sized party. The hotel were fantastic in allowing additions to the party size and ensuring our table was wheelchair friendly. Even though we ended up with a few less attendees than originally planned the restaurant again were extremely accommodating. The food was fantastic with rave reviews from the entire party and the service was wonderful too. I can't wait to return for a more intimate meal in the coming future.
