"We used one of the function rooms for a 230 family member gathering and the catering was great along with the function room. We also stayed the night which was very comfortable. The only thing I would say is that there weren't enough plug points for charging phones etc, only because they were used for lamps, kettle and fridge. But this is a minor factor and could be resolved by hard wiring some of these items. Overall had a really great stay. Thank you."
