Testimonials 

"I would like to take this opportunity to thank you and the events team for looking after us so well today.  Everyone who attended were very complimentary of the venue and service.  I was amazed at how many came to my husband's funeral but just showed how well he was liked by all" 

"You accommodated us at the BDC following the funeral of a family member.  Many thanks for providing just what we needed and everything we ordered.  Also, for looking after us whilst we were there.  The location was just right and we were well looked after during the afternoon.  The food was enjoyed by all, also enjoyed today because of the doggie bags you provided!" 

"Our Celebration of Life event went so much better than we dreamed possible. We were able to give the sort of send off to do him proud, and all our guests loved the evening too. I completely appreciated the discretion of you and your staff with keeping me up to date with the bar bill, and the way the buffet was handled. I was one of the last to go for food, and I had piping hot fresh cooked fish and chips.  I cannot praise Basset Down highly enough, and have visited  Basset Down since it opened - we have always found it to be a lovely relaxed, buzzy place"
