Of the Business Venues

"I just wanted to thank you on behalf of the staff at Mind in Taunton and West Somerset for the wonderful hospitality we received on our training day yesterday.

All the staff agreed what a lovely venue the Bampflyde Hall was, with the lunch also going down very nicely.

We shall definitely be considering Hestercombe Gardens for any further functions we may require."
