We held our engagement party here on Saturday and had the most amazing day! We picked this venue as we had a few small children coming and wanted to make sure they'd be entertained. We were very lucky with the weather and the playground was brilliant for the kids and their parents.

I think it was shrimps they were so small and not thoroughly defrosted, plonked on to Rocket, no tomato or cucumber. The Scampi was hard and over cooked. The gammon tough with an undercooked egg leaking on top of it. The chips were hard and smelled of over used oil. No colour or garnish on anything. It took an hour to get a sausage for the dog. The waitress, although pleasant, hadn't a clue. An experience not to be repeated. They weren't even...
