These reviews are my own views (and some of those of my wife too as she accompanies me and has her opinions too), none of these reviews are written to curry favour or for payment, they are simply our unbiased view of the experience we had.
I am not looking to annoy, these are just written to simply inform, too often reviews are printed as an advertisement for a business and are therefore never really true to life, many are written with a bias of some sort as most people have an agenda. While I try to leave any bias I may have at the door, it can however be difficult when some are not what they purport to be.
What qualifies me to make the judgements I do in these pages you may well ask as so few that write reviews on this subject have little or no practical experience in hospitality to draw on. See my biography page to find out how the 54 years I have so far spent in the industry endorse that knowledge and make the reviews pertinent not only to potential customers but also to owners and staff of the business too.
