Venue Hire Facilities 

''Thank you for making our Pilot Management Team Day such a wonderful experience.

Everyone loved the extraordinary service which you and your team provided. We felt so welcome and supported by you right from the start to end. Was a completely stress-free and fun evening right from booking the venue, your help in setting up, your guidance with the bowling, kitchen/bar/dining facilities etc. We had absolutely brilliant feedback!

Thanks again for making it such a memorable experience.'

Sheena Dhillon, Air NZ, January 2023

''I would like to say a massive thanks to Royal Oak Bowls for allowing us to celebrate my husband's 40th birthday party.

The whole process was so easy and relaxed and this helped ease the stress of putting a party on! Mike went out of his way to answer any questions and accommodate our needs for the evening. We had the best time! Des and Robyn who facilitated the bowls were lovely, and everyone loved playing bowls no matter what skill level. 

The feedback from family and friends was that it was the best party they had been to in a long time. 

The location and layout were great and I also really appreciate you letting me bring in my own catering as well as utilising KA Kitchen who provided some delicious nibbles.

We would definitely recommend Royal Oak Bowls for any event!''
