Following a recent funeral service, we gathered for refreshments in the most serene and beautiful setting. Cassandra from Celeste Catering ensured we had an atmosphere that was calm and comforting, with the sprawling tea gardens providing a peaceful backdrop for quiet conversations and moments of reflection. The food was generous and beautifully presented, with a variety of menus to select from to suit every guest. Every platter was fresh, plentiful, and thoughtfully arranged, offering both sweet and savoury options that were enjoyed by all. The service was impeccable – courteous, respectful, and friendly without being intrusive. The staff moved with quiet efficiency, ensuring everyone was cared for and felt welcome during a difficult time. A truly fitting place to come together in remembrance. Highly recommended for anyone seeking a venue that combines warmth, dignity, and outstanding hospitality.

Not the sort of place you’d visit by choice I suppose - being situated where it is - but if you’re looking for somewhere to gather after a somber occasion this place is delightful.

We stopped by after a funeral today to grab a quick coffee. Staff were lovely and coffee was good. Beautiful surrounds as well. We were kept entertained by the resident magpies
