Accommodation was excellent .Staff very efficient and helpful Food -Breakfast good selection of food Evening meal could be better Day trips-lovely day in Swanage and Poole no time to spend in Poole would rather slend a full day in Swanage Coach to Tamworth had to changd coach 3 times not sure if this a regular accuracebut its annoying Coming home straight to Tamworth but had to wait for a coach to pull in with 4 passengers on board Felt sorty fof the driver as he was getging grief from passengers waiting to get home But there had been a accident on the motoway so the delay couldn't be helped . Surely there must be a better way for logistics instead of changing at Tamworth and waiting and waiting and waiting

From pickup to drop off home

From pickup to drop off home, everything was taken care of, all I had to do was turn up. The Hotel was lovely, food was good with plenty of choice and all meals were waiter service too. I had a single room which was quite spacious and there was no single supplement😊. The only negative was the shower didn't have a thermostat and was difficult to keep to one temperature but it wouldn't stop me from booking again. This was my first time with Alfa and won't be the last, the service by all staff at the hotel and the drivers was first class.

A lovely break!

This was our first holiday with Alfa and we really enjoyed it. We liked the hotel and the journey there was easy and without any problem. The hotel was nice and was clean. We thought our bed was a bit rickety and could do with some attention. There were two members of staff that really stood out, one in the dining room and Steve behind the bar was customer focussed and nothing was too much trouble for him. Rochelle in the dining room looked after us really well and both these people are a credit to the hotel. Unfortunately things started to unravel on the journey home where we had a prolonged wait at Tamworth because one of the connecting coaches had been delayed. However, our onward driver who was put under unnecessary pressure by a minority of customers, did everything right and although we didn’t get home until quite late we thoroughly enjoyed our time away. So much so that we have booked another holiday with you later in the year.

Eastbourne & Bluebell Railway

Great holiday. Hotel wonderful. Old building, probably listed so you can't alter it, but I think a note in the brochure regarding the short flight of stairs which have to be negotiated between the reception area to the lifts would be helpful. Attentive and informative driver, Russell. Some good trips out although Brighton was a little disappointing. Would like to have been dropped nearer to the Lanes area as my wife struggles with longer walking distances, so we didn't manage to get up there. The railway trip was lovely. At least we had a reserved coach on the train, as opposed to the debacle last year on our Settle-Carlisle trip where we were packed into a busy service train with only 2 coaches. Northern Rail's ignorance and not Alfa's fault.

The waiting for the feeder coaches is…

The waiting for the feeder coaches is too long. Waiting at Tamworth services for 3 hours was way too long. We were the last feeder coach to leave due to the extremely slow coach driver loading the luggage (it was not an Alpha coach though). But on an extremely hot day all we wanted was to get home. It spoilt the whole experience to be hinest

Returned home yesterday from an 8 day tour of Shanklin I.O.W. First class tour from start to finish.Coach travel was excellent,day trips were all good, the Shanklin Hotel was superb, clean, tidy, great rooms comfy beds excellent meals and staff, entertainment good. Our driver Derek was a real gem, a first class driver polite, mannerly, really helpfull when on and off duty, couldn't have been better. On the whole a good holiday, can't wait for next year. Well done Alfa.

Great trip

Great trip, great hotel( glad we paid extra for a sea view) Great driver The only thing that needs improving is the interchange. The 'system' is too haphazard, not enough information given to customers, especially considering this was our first trip

Totally meets the Yorkshire requirement of Value For Money.

Hotel very well managed with polite, helpful and friendly staff. Evening entertainment was to the expected standard and the day trips well planned and executed. Food was to a good standard with a decent choice. The coach driver kept us informed and entertained. The off-site show at Babbacombe was excellent and contributed to a first rate holiday.

Hotel very good

Hotel very good, friendly staff and good choice of food. Coach driver also good, skilful and pleasant. Only negative was the seating on the coach, with some of the seats having insufficient legroom. It appeared that an extra row of seats had been inserted on the left side of the vehicle perhaps?
