- BBlitz! Your Music Education31/01/2024it was OUTSTANDINGit was OUTSTANDINGThis was the venue for my daughter's wedding and it was OUTSTANDING. The food was delicious and plentiful and the service was second to none. What a treat to have unfettered access to a wedding venue for the whole weekend; the owner, Michelle, accommodated the bridal couple's every request. The next morning we had the 'recovery breakfast' at the cafe, which again had wonderful food and service. Highly recommend this incredible venue!This was the venue for my daughter's wedding and it was OUTSTANDING. The food was delicious and plentiful and the service was second to none.
