"The venue was value for money and the location is fantastic. Be aware that the walls are paper thin. The layout means the bedrooms back on to the adjoining rooms lounge area - not ideal for getting an early night especially if the neighbouring rooms stays up to talk or watch tv. Ear plugs are a must"
