Badly organised. An excursion was added at the last minute. We were not told it was not included in the holiday price, and anyone choosing not to do it had to spend two and a half hours sitting in the car park. Information about the weekend was drip fed to us. by our driver, on a need to know when you need to know it basis. However, she was a very good driver and I felt very safe on the coach. The hotel was nice and it was in a good location in Sunderland, but although it takes coach parties is not really geared up to deal with them. Kynren was totally brilliant, it more than made up for any other niggles about the weekend.

Lovely driver, and coach. Holiday Inn ar Sunderland room very good and clean. One poor thing, the food was appalling it was as though it's a coach party and not much choice, breakfast cooked cold. Dinner dry tasteless, noticed quite a lot of people leaving their food. One bite and was left. Poor chef. Sorry, came home to decent meals.
