ISSUE 6 MAY 2017 Proud to be 4 Star and Rosetted Welcome back. The Villa is extremely proud to announce we have been officially awarded a 4 star hotel accreditation and Rosette status with the AA. The Villa continues to grow from strength to strength and is the perfect venue for all occasions not forgetting those notable days. Our Burns night celebration was a “sell out” and is back by popular demand for 2018, save the date Saturday 27th January. On Valentine’s Day we saw many couples enjoying a romantic candlelit dinner in our Rosette Awarded Restaurant. Mother’s Day, the busiest day of all, with lots of families enjoying quality time with their mums and Easter Sunday, also a great family day with an eggstra surprise for the children. The Wedding Fayre was as successful as ever for our brides and grooms to be. Our exhibitors were able to showcase their products and services throughout the day and the wedding team were on hand to offer guidance and support. If you are planning on getting married why not come and have a show round at The Villa. You can be assured of a warm welcome. I would like to take this opportunity to thank you all for your continued support. We look forward to seeing you soon. Have a great summer.

The Villa was the perfect venue for our wedding, Freya was fantastic at planning our day and was always quick to reply with any enquiries we had and with her expertise the day ran smoothly and exceeded our expectations. All the staff were so lovely and I can honestly say we wouldn’t have changed anything about the day. A huge thank you to all the staff for making our day so special for us and all our guests, Trevor and Sandra Dawson.
