“If you’re thinking of booking – then do it!  Our family is humongous so it was the perfect place for us! We had 35 children attend and they were all in their element!I had my heart set on getting married in the old chapel. So we crammed us all in and we were spilling out the door! But it worked perfectly and it was so full of love in there!"
