On arrival we were greeted by a young girl who barely spoke a word, and shown to our room...trapsing up the... More

On our first night in the UK we stayed at Fawlty Towers in Great Yarmouth. Our kids love the TV show and it just seemed like a quirky and fun way to start our tour of Great Britain. We stayed in the family room on the ground floor (Basil the Rat room as I recall). It was fine for the... More

This was probably the worst place that I have stayed at ever. The room was so dusty that my daughter's eye's were stinging and I had an allergic reaction. I could feel the dirt on the sheets, and wish I had slept in the car instead. The carpets were filthy and we ate our breakfast on a pool table! The... More

We had fun here and were well looked after and comfortable. The outside with its garish colours may put folk off and so too may the smell of a million breakfasts that lingers just inside the door, but that is not noticibale in the ding area or your room. Breakfast is great, service is friendly. EnSuite bedrooms have comfy beds.... More
