    Such a lovely Argentine themed evening. The 3 course menu was tasty and expertly cooked. We were very well looked after in a lovely venue. We were celebrating my 72nd birthday, and I received a lovely birthday card and gift from Chef Natalie and all the lovely Food & Beverage team. And also a beautifully decorated 'birthday plate' with macaroons, so very kind and helped make my birthday celebration very special. Thank you to all the team, and what a difference you have all made to this venue and food served. We will visit again very soon. With our best wishes Gill & Brian

    A lovely afternoon tea! Was a special occasion and I’d asked if we could have a little something with ‘happy birthday’ on. The request was welcomed! The food was delicious, more than enough. We took a box of goodies home! I would just have liked a little more savory. Two finger sandwiches and a small pastry and slice of sausage roll, did not balance with all the sweet treats. I could not fault the taste and quality of the food though. It was very quiet but it was a mid week visit, but a lovely setting. The staff were very attentive and nothing was too much trouble!! I’m sure I will visit again at some point in the future!!
