“Well set up, helpful staff and a open and airy venue! Another great event at The Nest thanks to Natasha and the team.”
David, Project 242
“Just to say many thanks for hosting our training seminar on Thursday 25 November. Our trainees thought the venue had excellent facilities set in a modern environment. They particularly liked the main reception area with the bean bags, table football and log stove. The education room we used had excellent up to date audio/visual facilities, all of which allowed for a successful training afternoon.
Thanks for your attention to detail in facilitating the event and ensuring we had a positive experience.

Everybody I spoke with said they loved it, didn’t know it was there and BW3 would love to come back again! Thank you so much for all your help in the run up to and the on the night with the organization. It was a fab event, all the more so for your support and the amazing venue.”
BW3
“The Nest is a great venue, they will cater for your needs as much as possible.
But the best thing about the venue other than being of the highest standards is the staff, they make it work with a can-do and friendly attitude. Our days ran over on some occasions and they stayed behind and made sure it worked for us.
Natasha was amazing and maintained contact throughout our stay and made sure we delivered the best service to our customers.”
Resourcing Team, MOJ
“We have had a fantastic day, made all the more successful by being hosted at such a fabulous venue.
It would also be remiss of me not to pass on our gratitude to Natasha and Claire for taking such good care of us – their wonderful support and attention enabled us to run such a positive event, which helped set the standard for our new starters.
Darren was as ever superb, and incredibly inspirational.
Today’s event has meant a lot to us all and your support has been very much appreciated.”
Andrew, New Futures Network
“Brilliant place for a meeting would like to use outdoor area in summer and would like to experience it with a larger group to see how that might work.

Claire, Trainer – Freight & Customs Procedures
“What an amazing, bright, spacious, modern venue with fantastic acoustics. This venue was the home to over 140 ladies plus stall holders and caterers for an event I hosted to raise money for Breast cancer. Nothing was too much and nothing is forgotten by the wonderful Natasha. We used most of the venue with its high ceilings and quirky breakout areas. Definitely recommend it for a corporate event, training or private entertainment.
10/10 from me!”
Marion, Organiser – Prevent Breast Cancer
“We love everything about this venue, a unique and hidden gem in South Manchester with a fabulous host, Natasha who made everthing seemless from the booking of the venue to how she managed our event on the day. Natasha was an exceptional host, her team did beyond what is expected. The scandivian feel of exterior and interior design of the building makes it very attractive. The use of colours, the hanging unbrellas in the ceiling in the main hall makes the room very welcoming and our guests were blown away. Impressive, high tech audiovisual equipments, electric warmer in the kitchen.”
Olayinka Seriki – UKTogether
“The venue is superbly designed and the layout worked really well for us with the conference room and the break-out space. The staff were incredibly supportive and despite having another event at the same time were on hand to help in any way. The room was fully set-up and ready for us already. Holding our event at this venue most definitely added to it’s success and allowed for it to run smoothly.”
Ministry of Justice
“What a fantastic venue and catering – Natasha was incredibly helpful across the tow days.”
