the venue is a must if you are getting married. the tipi created a wonderful setting. sarah coordinated everything and was lovely. the rooms were spacious with great decor.
my breakfast was tasteless and lacked cereal and fresh fruit. bacon was streaky, and sausage was bland. when i requested more tea, the pot was topped with hot water. there was a shortage of toiletries with only one toilet roll.
