    Fantastic little place!

    Recently attended a meeting here and was overwhelmed by how accessible and lovely it is inside and out. Staff were friendly and more than happy to direct me to the right room for my meeting. The building itself is well signposted, has accessible toileting facilities and the meeting rooms are spacious with plenty of room for all.
