The Christmas break was first class from start to finish. The coach picking me up was spot on time and the driver and assistant were first class. Very helpful throughout the whole time. The hotel...was also first class. The room was good, the food was exceptional and the staff very friendly and helpful. I would not hesitate booking this break again if it was available. First class all round.
