Testimonials - What you say about us


We have received some lovely comments and thanks from you, our customers, so we decided to put them on our website.
We don't think we should put people's names here, but we do have the written testimonials on file at the Suite so here are just some of the comments, word for word as they were sent in. Of course, people have thanked us personally at the functions and events we've held over the last two years, but we thought we'd just include the ones that were sent in writing





Dear Mr and Mrs Negus,
We are writing to say how much we appreciated the careful attention and service you gave us in respect of our Golden Wedding Celebration Lunch in the Park View Suite last Sunday 27th July
The setting was just right for our party, the meal superb, and the staff couldn't have been more friendly and helpful.
The fact that we had the whole place to ourselves for the whole of the afternoon made it that much more intimate and special. Everybody thoroughly enjoyed the meal and the occasion, so thank you for all your help, and please convey our thanks to your staff.
We trust you had a good, relaxed holiday, and have come back feeling refreshed and renewed, ready for all that lays ahead in the coming days!
With all good wishes,
Yours sincerely - M and R M

Dear Helen,
Following on from my very successful party held at the Park View Suite last weekend, I just wanted to tell you how complimentary all my friends and relatives have been about the excellent quality of the food served by you and your staff.
Everyone was impressed by the venue and many who had not visited there before - so it was a pleasant surprise for them to find it is so well appointed
I too must add my personal thanks to you for organising all your serving staff and the catering team behind the scenes to produce such a smooth 'hitch-free' event for me. However I shall try to avoid having many more birthdays, they are so ageing!
Many thanks again, I shall not hesitate to recommend the Suite to any one who is wondering where to hold a party.
Yours sincerely S A

We would not hesitate to recommend your venue to anyone requiring the very best.
With best wishes - L and R
