Fascinating and thoroughly enjoyable experience

I wasn't sure what to expect and the airfield location work a little while to find but the flight simulation experience itself was great fun helped by a charming and very enthusiastic young instructor who was a delight to work with. My wife was able to watch closely by and take plenty of photos which was an unexpected bonus. Overall it demonstrated just how much technology goes into a modern front line fighter plane. A fascinating and thoroughly enjoyable experience

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.

Quirky boutique hotel

Don't be fooled by the no frills, plain frontage of the building.. the feature rooms are fabulous.. the bathrooms equally so. Friendly staff and decent facilities. The cocktail making experience was a cracking evening - thanks Scott and Jason

Big boys toys

I had a great time. Good instruction from the two staff and then digging and bulldozing soil for 75 minutes. Always under the watchful eye of the instructor but with enough freedom to get the feel of the machine. I would highly recommend it as a gift for any over grown child of 65.
