    Went for a friends event at willows, fountain was fantastic, first thing you see, enough parking spaces. Hall is spacious and elegant. only issue was the toilets, you have to climb stairs. Not convenient if you have stomach issues. Overall fantastic venue

    The venue is in a good location, with ample parking. Access control and manned security on site. For safety. New Years Eve dinner dance wrists bands required , making sure the guests are registered accordingly. Unfortunately the event management team over sell the seat occupancy with tables then over crowded with random guests on your family table. The VIP guest charade is fraudulent You don’t get any special treatment or privileges as we found out by paying unnecessarily for the title. The doors opened at 18::00hrs Appetiser was welcomed by bites by 18:30 There was a big gap before starters ,21.14hrs that was delayed due to guest’s confusion with tables assigned or arriving at table which were full already with guests. The performers were good ,but guests seated at the back were impossible to see any acts due to guests standing and not managed so everyone can watch the act. The food was average, basic wedding menu was presented with quantity not quality Waiter service under manned , desert was provided but there was shortage during delivery. Rear doors are opened for the firework display and guests are told by security no one is allowed to the cars during that period which isn’t mentioned prior to performing We were extremely disappointed as we travelled from Leicester for the show Overcharging guests was not a good start to the year
