All kitchen items within the house are to stay in the house and not to be used by external suppliers and or removed from the property. This will ensure nothing goes missing and get mixed up between different supplier’s belongings.

We ask for all events that a separate bar is set up outside of the house, the bar is strictly for in house guests only, not events.
