The trips out were excellent, the hotel was lovely but it has the main hotel and 6 blocks which are all separate from the main building, meals - the breakfasts were great with a lot of choice, the evening meals weren't the best a lot of people complained bout them

The first day tour was a waist off time, too much time in one street villages. The other two days were very good with plenty to see. The hotel let the whole holiday down, the room was very good but it was based on a golf complex and there wasn't any where to walk outside or to sit. The food and dining area was dreadful with not enough tables for two and the cook needs to go to catering college for a year.

Very poor service by the catering staff. Had to wait nearly 1+ 3/4 hour for our 1st evening meal to be ordered and served. Also the choice of food was limited and small potions and an extra charge for vegetables, which were excluded from each meal!

more of a boot camp than a relaxing break.. too much emphasis on shopping. thank goodness for the good weather

Was expecting a Sheerings cach pulling up for us at the start, instead a company called Pats Coaches. Not a good start for me. Hotel not up to scratch especially catering just about every evening took a lot to organise and menu not my choice. Touring round the villages, the driver tried his best, but some villages could be seen in much shorter stops..Highlight Cheltenham and the train ride to Broadway then Citencester. Will chose carefully next time if there is a next time.

The only problem I had was booking on line. It took me 4 attempts as I kept getting blocked out at the booking conditions point.

Very easy to book by landline. which I prefer to booking on line. The lady I dealt with was very helpful and cheerful ! which makes a great deal of difference when you are 85 years old.
