Lovely place to stay.

The guest house was very clean and tidy with tasteful decor. The owners Mel and Trish are lovely people. Unfortunately Buyagift took 30% of the worth of the voucher away from the original price which was a voucher for £100. The business owners had to take a £30 payment from us which is poor, especially as the voucher was a gift! I don't think we will use Buyagift again!

Fab Spring Break

A lovely stay at The Imperial Hotel in Torquay. We were lucky enough to be upgraded to a seaview suite and had lovely sunshine for the entire stay. We got up onto Dartmoor, walked to a Tor and met some ponies and also went to the theatre to see a show and enjoyed some fab seafood in a local restaurant. A great couple of days.

Two night stay with breakfast

Brandon Lodge was excellent.Monique was very helpful & answered any questions we asked. The room was ideal, twin beds as requested, spotless & with everything that we needed. The breakfast was lovely & very tasty.The staff were also very good. My only concern is your booking system.It would be so much easier to be able to speak to someone on the telephone.

A well run relaxing day.

I added the same package for my wife so we could go together. Everything was very well explained and simple to follow. I didn't thing the 2 course light lunch would be enough but I was full at the end of it. The staff were all very friendly and polite so would well recommended the Spa package.
