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. We look forward to returning in the future

Lovely chilling location to get away from it all

A great set up and perfect for a few days away. Everything we needed for some R&R, awesome views, super quiet and great BBQ both nights. It was a bit hot in the pod, but you can’t account for the British summer heatwave and we survived!!

What a wonderful tour this was, for all cinematic London Bond locations. Rob was a marvellous guide, extremely knowledgeable and humerous to boot ! Would highly recommend Rob and his 007 guide to London for all Bond fans. 10/10 and many thanks Simon and Maria

The Empress hotel is a very nice hotel. Its location is good as you are not directly in the centre but in walking distance. The staff are all very friendly. The restaurant and the bar food is great.

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.

Brilliant afternoon

We can't speak highly enough about this experience and as importantly the enthusiasm, knowledge and service of Rob who was so helpful and attentive throughout the whole experience. We tried quite a few beers and the meals were also delicious. Thank you to Rob and The Hoxton Hound.
