The View Function Suite – The Perfect Setting for Every Occasion
With some of the most breath-taking panoramic views of the sea, The View Function Suite offers a truly unforgettable backdrop for your special day. Whether you're planning a relaxed wedding reception, an elegant baby shower, a respectful wake, a private party, a business seminar, or a milestone celebration, The View is a versatile and stylish venue designed to suit any occasion.
The suite comfortably accommodates up to 150 guests, offering a spacious and contemporary setting that can be tailored to meet your event’s needs. The main function area measures just under 17 metres by 8 metres (approximately 54ft x 26ft) and features folding doors that open completely onto the Sea Garden Terrace, almost doubling the space on warm, sunny days. There’s even a retractable roof—perfect for those truly beautiful summer afternoons.
And it’s not just a summer venue. Thanks to underfloor and overhead heating, the suite remains warm and welcoming all year round, making it ideal for winter weddings, festive celebrations, or events held during the cooler months.
From intimate gatherings to large-scale functions, The View Function Suite provides a stunning yet practical setting for all of life’s important moments.
