On behalf of my family I would like to say a HUGE thank you to Les and his team. Struggling to find a suitable venue for my Mums funeral wake my Brother and I went see Les at Dukes Folly, what a fabulous venue and staff. Les immediately sorted everything out for us and nothing was too much trouble. It was perfect on the day, the buffet food was amazing, good choices and catered for all needs, delicious!! What a fabulous place to host a smaller event, will definitely use this Hotel again and can highly recommend it. Thank you Carole, Sue and Steve.
