"First of all, the staff were terrific. Everyone
was helpful, kind, keen to see that the day went off
perfectly. The serving staff at dinner under the
direction of Ian were super efficient - it was
almost like watching a dance to see them serving.
The food was delicious - your chef recreated those
lovely dishes we all selected at the tasting and
everyone commented on how good the food was.
Everyone, down to the staff on the door were superb
and I would be most grateful if you would pass on
my thanks to them all."
