On behalf of everyone from Mansfield Hockey Club and all our guests from Saturday night I would like to say a huge thank you for hosting our charity fund raising evening. The room was presented well and looked very professional, the staff were attentive and helpful throughout the evening and the quality of the food was of the highest standard. You were also very efficient at dealing with diner who requested a gluten free meal 5 minutes before service. I have been to many large catering venues and know how hard it is to produce such a high standard for a large event. May I commend you all on a fantastic job. I had numerous compliments from guests on the night and will be expressing these comments on Trip Advisor which I hope will help with continued future bookings for you. We are already considering making this event an annual event and will look at other options like Christmas and our end of season presentation night. My thanks to you both for helping arrange this event which has been a huge triumph and enabled us to reach (and surpass) our fund raising goals for the year ahead.

We recently used the catering department at Portland to provide some canapes for a business function at our Interiors Shop in Mansfield. The canapes looked amazing and were supplied on attractive faux slate platters. Our guests were really impressed with them and I am sure you will getting more orders from those who have sampled them. The favourites were definitely the smoked salmon and the prawn ones which disappeared very quickly as soon as a new platter was brought out. My personal favourite was the smoked duck with prunes. We shall definitely be using you again. Thank you

You are all a very special group of people and we can't wait to come back to Portland College to renew our acquaintance. I am busy telling all my contacts about the amazing service you give and the valuable work you do. I will always be grateful to the lady in the B&B who was able to accommodate us. My family and I want to support you in any way we can. Thank you to your truly wonderful professional staff and thank you for your kindness.

Over the last few years the Rotary Club of Sutton in Ashfield have held President's Evenings and other functions in the Eastwood Suite at Portland College. We can say that the experience has been very good indeed and all details of planning the meal selection, table layout, bar and dance floor arrangement have been looked at and dealt with in a professional manner by the Management and staff. We have always found the food to be high quality and served with efficiency and we have no problems at all. The whole setting of the venue suits us with an excellent floor area lovely upmarket decor for a special occasion, good safe car parking and of course we are spending our money in Ashfield while at the same time supporting Portland College.
