“We have been hiring the County Guiding Centre for a number of years. The facilities there - two rooms, a large hall and a well equipped kitchen are perfect for our group, and the huge garden is a marvellous bonus for us all. The team that manage the bookings and look after the hall make it very easy for us to hire the hall, pay for the hire and report any issues that may have occurred between hires or on our day there."
