We have visited this wonderful museum for many years and decided to have a Golden Wedding celebration there

We have visited this wonderful museum for many years and decided to have a Golden Wedding celebration there. The team at the Bowes were very professional , friendly and efficient and it was a pleasure to work with them on this event. The day itself was a great success -- beautiful rooms were used , an excellent lunch for nearly 80 people and very good service. I am quite critical but the Bowes was perfect in every respect. Obviously people go to the museum to see it and the exhibits but it is also a wonderful venue for social events and it all helps the museum. Thank you to Team Bowes -Richard A.
