Haven of peace

From the friendly welcome to our departure we had a super time here. The wigwam pod was spotlessly clean, cozy and comfortable, surrounded by nature with a couple of friendly Robins visiting. The pod was equipped with a good size fridge with freezer compartment, a microwave and electric kettle and plugs for phone charging etc. counter top and shelving for meal preparation. Outside deck area, picnic bench with disposable bbq pad. Quiet, intimate, back to nature site with all modern amenities, shower/toilet blocks, dish washing and clothes washing facilities (machines and tumble driers) children's play area and woodland walks. Close to walking trails and places of interest. Haven of peace away from a busy world, we thoroughly recommend a visit.

Amazing trip

Tenby did not disappoint and the Broadmead boutique B&B was lovely. Spotlessly clean with everything you could possibly need and the best cooked breakfast ever. Staff were friendly and bent over backwards to help. We could not have hoped for better weather and the icing on the cake was that I was able to visit my old teacher training college (now part of Cardiff university) on the way home. I had not been near it since I left in 1982 and it was lovely to see very little had changed. Our daughter had bought us the two night stay for Christmas and it was definitely a great choice.

Perfect night away

The holiday inn express Exeter exceeded our expectations. All areas were clean and modern. Our room had everything we needed clean, spacious and very comfortable. The staff were very welcoming and friendly. The hotel is perfectly situated within walking distance of the city of Exeter and in the other direction Exeter Quay which was very lively and had various places to eat overlooking the river. We had a perfect night away
