Funeral Wake. A lunchtime gathering following a cremation. It appeared on arrival that the staff members present had no idea what to do. The tables in the Cedar room had been laid but it took a long time to be ushered in and a delay of serving welcome drinks and canopies.

Excellent. We had a champagne afternoon tea as a present. The whole afternoon went very well. From the waiter, very nice choice of sandwiches. Cakes & scones, tea plus a glass of champagne all very enjoyable

We came for lunch for my mother's 90th, I have got to say it was superb! Attentive staff, beautiful setting and really good food. It was busy but despite that everything was excellent. I have had nothing but good service from the moment we booked. I would really recommend it, felt very special.
