- CClaire11/08/2023A most wonderful eveningA most wonderful eveningWe had the most wonderful evening at The Chelsea celebrating my son and daughter in laws marriage. From the start of the arrangements to the meal ,music and the staff were exceptional. It was a private function upstairs in the most lovely surroundings. This venue was not new to me as I'd celebrated my birthday there in March although not on the same scale. Can't praise the staff enough for making our special evening a total success.We had the most wonderful evening at The Chelsea celebrating my son and daughter in laws marriage.
