"We had our complete wedding service here from the ceremony to the wedding breakfast and evening on the Leger Suite downstairs, what a fantastic day !!! Jo-Anne and her staff were brilliant, sorting out any queries straight away , nothing was too much. Food was amazing, day and evening. Steve the DJ was fantastic playing a variety of tunes, the dancefloor was never empty. The wedding service went off without a hitch even though there were 2 other weddings on at the same time, how they managed we don't know. Particular mention to Sharon, the lady who needs a medal, kept us informed of what was happening and asking us when we wanted things to happen, looking after Jacqui s dad to make sure he was happy. All in all, the BEST day . The room was a little bit tired , needs updating but we were put in to the Renishaw Suite as the Honeymoon suite was already occupied , didn't spoil our wedding in the slightest, . The wedding package (Whirlwind) was definitely money well spent and very very good value for money. Again, thank you to Jo-Anne and her staff for making our day so Special."
