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.

Wonderful holiday

We hade a great holiday at exmouth the food was great and entertainment was good the staff were very helpful the one gripe I've got is the driver was not very informative also when coach stops the driver should go the bottom of the steps to assist elderly passengers off not just sit in the drivers seat otherwise it was a great holiday thanks Ivan Barnbrook

Lost case nightmare

Had a lovely holiday in Bournemouth, but it was spoilt when the homeward feeder coach driver, who had evidently had an horrendous journey up from Ilfracombe, and wasn't in the best of moods, put one of our cases out at St Albans by mistake, we've just been informed by a very helpful lady named Abby in traffic, that it is in London at Thames railway lost property, and she is in the process of getting our case back to us thank you very much Abby.

We had a lovely time in Blackpool

We had a lovely time in Blackpool. But had a problem with entry to the room. Reported it on the day but nothing done. By the last night we were unable to get into room and neither could staff. We had to wait for general manager to come an hour and half later we got in. The battery had gone on entry. No one else could get in. Manager was rather rude. And that spoilt the end of our holiday. Surely for health and safety staff should be able to get in rooms. This needs to be looked at.

Good hotel, but issues this time.

We have been going to Newquay, for several years with Alfa, as my Niece lives there. The Eliot hotel is lovely. With a Friendly manager and staff. Unfortunately this time, we had some issues. Although booking a full year before going. I had requested both twin rooms to have a walk in shower, due to mobility problems for 3 of our party of four. Apparently on speaking to the manager, someone had crossed out our request, before we arrived. So only one room had one. The manager did offer us a double and a single room, but of course our party wanted the companionship of sharing. The other thing was that, there was disorganised service in the dining room. Waiting ages to be served and also between courses. And then sometimes bringing, wrong food we had ordered etc. The food however is very good and no complaints. We had a Brilliant driver in Chris. He was very informative about the area and made us all laugh. He also carried my bags onto the coach for me, as I can struggle to get up without them, due to mobility and breathing issues. A Lovely man. We will of course be going again. I have given only 4 stars, due to the issues, but all other times we have stayed as been a 5.
