We have the use of one of their Conference Centre (The Arboretum) as a focus for catering and social activities.

The Restaurant provides cooked or cereals breakfasts and lunches and evening meals, served at table, are available at reasonable prices for one, two or three course meals (we recommend the desserts!).

During the day refreshments will be plentifully available. CMA UK will host a "Holy Joe’s Café" in the Arboretum and canned drinks machines are available in the Reception building. It is hoped that bread and milk will be available daily (to be confirmed - watch this space!)
