We had our Christmas party for work here, the staff were friendly and very helpful. You will need to organise your own catering.nnThe bowling green was well kept and some members were on hand to provide some pointers on lawn bowls.nnAn excellent experience and a nice little club, would recommend.
DO NOT BOOK an event here!nWork Xmas party for 45 people. We only dealt with Sophie and her customer service is beyond horrible. Or first experience was arriving early to set up and actually being yelled at by her to get off the premises, we not allowed to be there before or booked time. When I finally was allowed in she had it paperwork where where very firmly pointed out the line where it said please do not arrive before your time. Not an issue but absolutely not acceptable for her to tell at us, including the person that was about to put $3000 over their bar.nShe was extremely rude to my guests and staff. We were not made to feel welcome at all. She constantly told me how busy she was and how she didn't have time for us because she had to set up for over 100 people with other events booked that day. It was an extremely hot day and we had to ask if we could have a marquee as our table were on concrete in full sun. This was done but the request obviously made her more cranky. The caterer we used, who had been to the venue many times, came to tell me that they had witnessed sophie being extremely rude to my guests when telling them they could not sit at tables inside due to eat their meals as they were for other events. Even the booking process was awful. Very unorganized, could never contact her as she was busy looking after other events. In an email she even said..as I have said before!nShe explaining the rules of the bowling Green and was very stern when saying I will not hesitate shutting your event down if you break any rule.nThere was nothing about her that was nice, friendly, professional, caring about our experience, or polite!nIf they were understaffed, not our problem. There is no excuse to treat people in such an unfriendly unwelcoming way, be rude, sour faced the entire time, yell at and berate my guests. Absolutely disgusting level of customer service.nIf I could score lower than 1 star I would.
Brilliant staff Christmas party here December 2023. Our host Sophie was brilliant; excellent communication start to finish and she looked after us so well on the day.nThis place is a hidden gem and I hope they hold out for as long as possible tucked in all this prime real estate!
Very nice small bowling club. They have 2 synthetic greens, which are a pleasure to play on. The club itself has had a number of renovations but still has that old charm feeling.
I organised my work Christmas party here for 35 people. In the lead up to the day, Sophie was great with organising everything. On the day however, I have never experienced such poor customer service from someone. She was extremely rude to all of my colleagues and myself. When she was behind the bar serving guests she was even worse.nnI had multiple colleagues come up to me and say how poor their experience was with her and how they will never go back here solely because of her.
