This is why you only paid £17.49 per person, which I can assure you, is extremely cheap for... More

Hi, I apologise for your bad experience, I am quite astonished at Sharon being rude as she is normally very good with our guests and has worked for the company for over 10 years. However as i was not present I can only apologise and hope this doesn't deter you from visiting us again in the future. More
