Not specifically the toilets - the venue above them - is an excellent place for a get-together with family or friends if the house just isn't quite big enough. 😄 Has a toilet, fully functional kitchen and beautiful views of the sunset.

Very bad experience when trying to hire. They double booked me, even though I booked the venue 5 weeks in advance and when I asked themto tried sort it out they ended up not ringing or texting me back, even after I was given a discounted price!!

Sadly it was the caretaker of this venue that causes me to write this comment. I've hesitated in doing this. I used the venue for a large 60th. Due to weather it leaked so we needed to clean before we started. Then omg the attitude of this man on the Sunday was disgusting. His rudeness, attitude and general demeanor is not acceptable. Because of him I would never recommend this facility. If he wasn't involved 100% greàt venue.
