We hired the entire place for a family event during 3 days. The amenities were such that it was possible to welcome, self-cater and entertain our 80 guests comfortably and efficiently. In May, the surrounding park was stunning : beautiful grounds, magnificent trees, clever layout. The host was welcoming and there was a mutual sense of trust which was refreshing. "We felt immediately at home" said one of our guests. The experience will nurture our soul for years to come and leave behind life-long memories. Thank you!
