Went for a Model Railway show, so I can't rate anything else other than how easy it was to park and navigate the facilities. Parking is always difficult, especially early as junior football teams take up most of it. It's always quite difficult to walk around the site as it gets busy, and corridors are not really designed for large groups. However the facilities are clean and well maintained.

Great place for a variety of functions and parties. Super friendly staff go above and beyond. I would recommend for anyone wanting to organise a family function, fancy dress bash, birthday, wake or big event.
