The Space

From small and intimate, to entertaining on a grander scale, all our spaces, both indoors and out, are very adaptable and each will provide a stunning backdrop to your event.

The venue dates back to 1348 where it was originally a burial site for victims of the plague. Since then a monastery was built, after which it was used to house wealthy noblemen and royalty.
