    Kerry helped to guide us through the planning process and was friendly and helpful at all times. On the day, Sue, assisted by Rebecca, was superb. The team could not have been more welcoming and accommodating. Sue even went the extra mile and put our cake together for us. It looked beautiful. Nothing was too much trouble and we and our guests had a perfect day which we will always treasure.

    All the Priory team Jeff and I can't thank you enough for making our Wedding such a special day, all our guests feedback has been amazing as well. You all worked tirelessly to make our day so special. We seated 150 people and had in excess of 180 attend, which your bar staff coped really well with. I've attached a photo of the dressed hall which if you want to use please do so. Once again an unreservedly heart felt thank you

    We were here for a lego event - 'Ware's the Brick?' Ware is a lovely town, and how I wish every town was, it seems to have kept the high street alive with great independent and interesting cafes, restaurants, bars and proper book shops. This venue has loads of space, amenities, plentiful clean loos, and backs onto the riverbank. It's a really nice space. The event was great and Ware is somewhere I'd love to live. We go to this event every year, but I am looking out for other events to attend. Parking can be tricky - somehow we always get lucky, but the nearest carpark had 1 space. Might be wise to have a plan B if travelling by car.

    Beautiful wedding held here. Service good. Could do with adding tea, coffee for those that do not drink. I feel the food should of been left out in the evening until the wedding was over. Staff seemed a little too quick to tidy away. Parking good. Lovley vista to the back. Conservatory definitely needs to have the roof cleaned and gutters cleared out. Could also do with an outside area for people that smoke.
