"Our love for the Venue has come from the unique charm and elegance of the property, its location, the quality of catering, the choice of “fit for purpose” rooms and an onsite Operations Team who have a “can do”, “will do” attitude. The variety of rooms and flexibility to create different looks in each room is key for our clients and the RDS has the scale and this allows us to cater for a variety of projects from intimate gatherings to 5,000 person conferences and dinners!"
