Lovely wake at a great venue

We were there for a wake and Cheryl and the team looked after us so well. The food was good and plentiful. The warm scones with cream and jam were absolutely amazing. Considering the occasion we had a lovely time and felt like nothing was too much trouble. Thank you Cheryl and the Mercure.
