Hilarious evening

The welcome and service was good and friendly. Good food. Actors brilliant with interesting twists. Good accommodation with delightful 4 footed ling eared neighbours. A few practical points: Entrance sign on the road hidden behind trees on inside bend - no time to turn left safely. Instructions on use of shower need to be provided, particularly with warning that water can become scalding hot.

Postponed stay

Unfortunately & sadly we had to postpone our stay as we had a family bereavement and hope to get to the hotel very shortly. As you can understand we haven’t set a new date yet but the hotel and their staff have been wonderful during this awful period and I’m sure we will have a wonderful time there soon
