Ultimate Time Together for Two
Scraggy · 31-05-2026
Fantastic!!
We booked this as a Christmas present for our 15 year old son. In all honesty we thought it would be a gimmicky ‘experience’ that would involve a bit of time in the car, but it was a full 60 minute proper driving lesson! Something which will definitely benefit him when he turns 17 and starts taking lessons. We’ll be booking more of these over the next couple of years as it will save £££’s in weekly lessons and our son absolutely loved the chance to get behind the wheel 2 years early!! Highly recommend!

Excellent Christmas gift
Having our voucher meant we could have a few days away during half term. A much needed break that we might not otherwise have been able to stretch to.
Two Night Hotel Break for Two
Sam · 11-05-2026
Superb
The hotel was fabulous and really good prices at the bar...
The carpark was a bit expensive at £25 per night and only 16 spaces but better than leaving in an insecure space.
The staff were absolutely amazing especially Hazel ????
Two Night Break for Two in York

Short break in beautiful countryside
The stay at the Pilgrim Hotel was very enjoyable. Food was excellent, room was adequate with all facilities and the golf course, although a 30 minute drive away, was well worth the travel for the views.
