Lovely Time

We had a fabulous stay for our anniversary and couldn’t have asked for a better experience. From the moment we arrived, the staff were welcoming, friendly, and attentive. Our room was comfortable, clean, and beautifully presented, making our celebration feel extra special. The hotel itself was lovely, with a relaxing atmosphere and excellent facilities. Thank you to everyone for helping make our anniversary memorable. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would happily recommend this hotel to family and friends.

What a Show!

This production is unlike anything I have ever seen. The audience was laughing as if it were a comedy show; absolutely brilliant. It was a twist on the typical musical genre, a parody, if you like, and it worked. I would highly recommend this to anyone. Please know that language is rather obscene so make sure that you're okay with before booking.

Good venue Makeney Hotel excellent cast from Murder 57od of a high quality

The venue was good friendly staff,food was good ,the atmosphere was of a friendly but competitive. The cast held their own with the buzz of the crowd with the storyline being laid outand the clues giving an insight into a good whodunit. My wife and I enjoyed it thoroughly.

One night memorable break

With a range of locations and hotels to chose from, we opted for the Talbot Hotel in the lovely market town of Ledbury. The Talbot like many of the building in the town is a picturesque timber framed building bursting witj character. Our room was a good size and very clean and comfortable. The breakfast was excellent and the staff were very friendly, making us feel welcome from the moment we stepped through the door. Would definitely recommend this for an overnight break.
