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. RED letter should hold their heads up high
Premium Murder Mystery Hotel Break with Dinner for Two

Excellent Break

We were greeted warmly & shown to our room. Two flights of steep steps, not good but the manager saw my wife struggle with the climb & very kindly reallocated a room on the first floor. Excellent staff with a warm approach to guests. Breakfast - spot on to set you up for the day but do try a steak in the evening - fantastic.

Best birthday gift I have given.

What an experience... We met 4 birds on the day the guy who did the experience was very knowledgeable and answered any questions that he was asked... You got a good amount of time with each bird to get a photo and look at some of these amazing birds.. I bought this for my partners birthday and he absolutely loved it.. wished he could meet more birds! Would definitely do this again!!

A lovely delicious present

The staff were very friendly and helpful, as we were going to be out of the house all day, I rang and asked if I could bring our dog, so we didn't have to leave her alone all day. They very kindly set a table for us in the bar. The afternoon tea was delicious and there was so much we had to bring some home with us. There was a great variety of sandwiches and cakes and a delicious scone with jam and cream for each of us. One of the best presents we have ever had

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.

Great Stay

Lovely relaxing atmosphere. Greeted with a roaring wood fire making the wet weather tolerable. Check in was seamless and the bar and restaurant very welcoming. Food was superb and staff polite, cheerful and helpful. Big bonus being dog friendly, they were accepted everywhere except the restaurant which was understandable. No problem we ate in the bar and as all the other guests did too it made for a really warm and friendly atmosphere. First visit here and it will definitely not be our last.

Amazing

Me and my partner stayed in a pod and we were amazed by how nice it was. There is a lovely river as you look out the door and was very quiet and relaxing. The toilet/shower facilities were spotless. Loads to do in the area. .
