Simply the best
Pros:

We arranged our annual Rotary Clubs Presidents Ball at Judds Folly. From our initial contact right to the final whistle Carlie and her team were amazing. We had 50 people attending with a multi choice menu which covered nearly all bases. For those that had dietary requirements they were happily accommodated.
The dining area and ballroom were decorated to perfection. The food was excellent; I had the cod which was presented perfectly.
Some of us stayed overnight (we have done so a couple of times in the past). Our room was excellent and a small treat bag was left for our two Pomeranians.
Breakfast was self service and the choice from continental to cereals and full English was fresh a regularly replenished.
Overall a fantastic experience and one we are planning again.
I need to add that we had a few things not go to plan from our side. Not only did Carlie do her utmost to help she regularly put our minds at ease and made us feel special.
A wonderful hotel (Faversham’s best kept secret). Wonderful location and beautiful surroundings.
Thank you.
