One Night Memorable Break for Two

A very comfortable stay

We were given a room in the annexe next to The Malthouse, as we'd noticed they have a lot of live music. The room was perfect - comfortable and warm enough with a nice ensuite bathroom. Plenty of choice at breakfast in the main hotel, and the staff were always friendly and helpful. Ironbridge is a pretty town with river walks and plenty to explore. Many thanks for a relaxing break!

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.
