Everything you need to cater for the extended party.
The majestic dining room has a square table, which seats 16 people (18 at a squeeze). The lounge has 3 of the biggest leather Chesterfields you’ll have ever come across, again seating 16. The room also has a hifi with iPod dock and a large flat screen TV. Filled with light from 2 lovely windows and patio doors, which open onto the sun terrace. This room is a fabulous place to unwind. Perhaps our most unique feature is Josiah Brown’s, our bar.

It’s the perfect party room and is there to make your celebration even more special.
