Nice venue and lots going on 4 everyone. Very busy on Sunday due to car boot sale in field and quite difficult for parking and driving through the village at this time.

Perfect spot for a bootsale the views are stunning the toulets at the start of the day are spotless however due to the animals that pass through the poor staff have no hope in keeping them clean. The sports and social team do a raffle for boot salers at the end of the day which is just brilliant as it is nice to sit on the veranda and look out over the channel with a cold drink after selling your stuff. The price has gone up to 9 for cars but the bootsale is soo busy that you should make that back easily depending on what you are selling I do love going to Sully sports and social

Held our wedding reception here yesterday, experiened first class service. Food was amazing and plenty of it. Special thanks to Mel who went out of her way to make sure everything was perfect for us, even helping with seating plans and making sure the dj had the music we wanted, it really took some of the pressure off us. First class service. Thankyou for contributing to an amazing day. (sorry Mel if i stressed you out😂)

I also would give 0 if I could. You are letting a man work with stolen equipment(trampolines) from your club.
