They keep mentioing how awkard the owner is.

Wish me luck...

Looks like a beautiful building and 45/55 excellent reviews sounds amazing.

I doubt there is a hotel on the planet that doesnt have at least one bad review, people will complain about the slightest thing but are sometimes a lot less forthcoming with praise.

I thought this bit was particularly interesting... "The dining rooms contain some very dated furniture " ..... erm.... its a period property.... what do they expect.... Ikea contemporary ????

Been there plenty of times.

What do you want to know?

Anyway isn't it a bit far for you?

Well I'm here now ready to setup in the Organry (I think that's how you spell it!)

Running 40 minutes late. I'll let you know how it goes.

Enjoy the steps down into the Orangery!

Plugs are under a flap in the floor.

Can't believe you're asking about a venue the day you go there........in fact Yes I can :D

:lol:

Really really good evening. Loved the requests and I played some decent tunes too. :cool:

I did a 90's club set and the groom asked me to turn it off because he 'detestes it' which was a shame, because the room was buzzing. Trying to mix 'got the secret key - cookie club' into Jackie Wilson Higher and Higher isnt easy. ;)

The owner was actually really nice and asked one of the bar staff to help me load up. She's asked for me to send her some cards and details but it's such a long drive.

She also wants me to post
