Inspiration
The hotel offers a food and drink tasting session with the General Manager and Head Chef. The hotel has compiled a list of contacts to organise everything from the cake to the flowers. Even the tiniest detail can be arranged - one couple recently requested a special tea to be blended to use as wedding favours. Wine and champagne from Sussex and Kent vineyards are available.
