Great afternoon
Had a lovely afternoon, aboard the canal boat, for afternoon tea.
The food was lovely and plentiful, with a great choice of sandwiches and cakes.
The skipper was very friendly and knowledgeable, about the nature and birds on the canal.
I even had a go at steering the boat.
Throughly enjoyable afternoon.
Thank you. ??

My boyfriend and I were given this voucher for Christmas and decided to use it in Bath on Good Friday. It felt like a real treat! In the S&L, the staff were attentive, and the food was delicious and plentiful. We also had two soft or hot drinks included. Highly recommended!

Little gem hidden in Southend
Absolutely worth every penny. Afternoon tea was one of the best I ve been to. The hotel itself is family run , I didn’t know was there - ok sea front. Decor beautiful , staff so accommodating friendly and clearly love where they work . Definitely going again to tryout the dinner.
