Private Dining

The Courtyard
A Versatile Space for any type of event

'The Courtyard' is a beautiful old chapel with high ceilings, twinkling chandeliers and exposed beams. Elegantly and thoughtfully refurbished, with its own separate bar, it is the perfect space for any special occasion. 

By hiring the Courtyard you can enjoy the luxury of having space all to yourself.
