      Fantastic Day!
      We would like to pass on our thanks for a fantastic day, the professionalism and level of service provided by all the staff ensured that the day ran smoothly and allowed us to enjoy the day. Also thanks to the Master of Ceremonies, Michael's professionalism throughout the day and all our guests commented on how well he managed the guests and introduced the ceremony and meal. The wedding meal itself was fantastic and many of our friends and family commented not he quality and standard of the meal, many had said it was better than many restaurants they had been to and it was good to see that no expense had been spared in the preparation. We have many friends who are due to wed and we would gladly recommend the hotel to anyone.
