We pop in to this pub and restaurant every now and then to eat and drink as it is pretty local for us. We have attended several functions here and have never been disappointed. So, when we booked our Wedding date we knew exactly where to head to have our reception party. From the planning stages through to the actual day Paul and Gwen could not have been more helpful and accommodating, nothing was too much trouble and they had many helpful tips from their extensive experience to share with us.
On the day itself Paul, Gwen and the team excelled themselves, making the whole venue absolutely beautiful. We had welcome drinks followed by photographs in the beautiful garden, a three course sit down meal in the afternoon and a huge party with a buffet for 200 guests in the evening. The food was second to none, all freshly prepared by the talented chefs. All of our guests have commented on the quantity and quality of what was served, and the fact that the food was all served together, on time and was piping hot – a hard task to achieve! The bar staff were very friendly and worked so hard to keep our guests served throughout the day and evening – nothing was too much trouble for them, and everything was served efficiently, with a smile and time for a chat. This restaurant/pub is ideal for a large function with plenty of room to provide both the rocking disco area we required and more restful, less noisy areas to retreat to.
The main wedding party stayed overnight in the very comfortable en-suite accommodation and enjoyed a plentiful, freshly prepared and served continental breakfast in the morning before departing for home.
We cannot recommend this venue highly enough whether you are wanting a relaxing drink, a quality meal, a function or bed and breakfast accommodation. Of course, being local we will be returning to be ‘looked after’ again as soon as we return from our Honeymoon! We will always be grateful to Paul, Gwen and their team for making our wedding such an enjoyable and memorable experience!
Brilliant – down to the last detail!
