Teenage Cancer Trust has been working with Yarnfield Park to facilitate our annual over 18s post treatment conference for young people who have experienced cancer treatment. Young people come from across the UK to spend time together and share experiences and Yarnfield has always been a welcoming and accommodating venue to work with. We enjoy making use of the varied spaces and the food is always very well received. Thank you for the ongoing support
When an established Conference makes a change of venue after ten years, it’s important to get it right! From initial enquiries to site visits the Yarnfield team were helpful and efficient in understanding our conference needs in order to ensure it would run smoothly.
On the Conference days, the staff were visible and helpful, the bedrooms comfortable and clean, the meeting rooms set out for our specific needs, and the food was excellent in quality and quantity. Feedback from our 140 delegates was overwhelmingly favourable and we have confirmed Yarnfield Park for the next two years.
FEW Conference for Evangelists
Thank you to the team once again for making us feel so welcome and supporting our training conference needs throughout our two days (despite Covid restrictions). We saw the effort and hard work from everyone behind the scenes. You all worked so hard to make our stay the best it could be.
I wanted to write and express our sincere gratitude to all at Yarnfield for the support in making our events a success. All the rooms were really well laid out, the support from your colleagues was superb and the lunches were exceptional. So in short our very sincere thanks to one and all.
We have been using Yarnfield Park now for a number of years as our apprentices attend the nearby Stafford College. We have always found the staff to be very helpful, and professional.
Our apprentices are very well looked after and the staff aim for them to have a home from home experience.

We thought the conference rooms were brilliant, and most staff commented on how Covid safe they felt with the way it was all set up. The staff around the building, the ones that I spoke to were happy to help, and very professional.
We would like to thank you especially, for all your assistance and help, not forgetting the number of deliveries that you signed for and allowed to be delivered to site prior to our meetings. The food was amazing, and the service on the food counter was too.
We will definitely be coming back to Yarnfield Park when we need to arrange some more general meetings and another staff team day next year, hopefully with less deliverable items.
We needed to find a suitable location to meet and demonstrate new product to remote colleagues and under the current circumstances were interested in finding a venue in a good central location away from our operational site. The Yarnfield Park venue was ideal, we were able to carry out a safe, socially distant and ultimately successful training event for our team. The site was well organised to reflect current rules and requirements and made us feel welcome and well catered for – including a hot lunch!
Can you please send our thanks and appreciation to your Manager and the whole team for making the last 3 weeks stay at your conferencing facilities as smooth as possible in the current climate.
It was noted the high level of effort, you and your team went to, in order to make our stay as safe and uninterrupted as possible in order to start our course.
The way you all pulled together, working as a team and filling in the gaps where needed, and keeping the smiles going was really appreciated. Nothing was too much trouble.
We look forward to using the venue again and again in the future and wish you all the best.
A big thank you for everything you and everyone working at Yarnfield Park has done for us this week.
The work that you have all put in to ensure that our event went smoothly and safely for all, has been magnificent and all the processes you have put in place were managed superbly.
We have had fantastic feedback from our delegates who really did appreciate all your efforts.
We’re very much looking forward to coming back and will definitely be looking to see what other training and events we can work with you on.
Please pass on our thanks to all the team for all their hard work and efforts.
