Absolutely fantastic airside tour seeing the XH558 Vulcan in all her beauty! Me and my partner stayed at the Ramada hotel across the road from the airport where we met the crew in the reception after breakfast for the briefing. Cannot fault the friendly staff!! After tea and biscuits, we boarded a comfortable warm coach and set off to the aircraft. Whilst there we were able to freely roam, take lots of pictures, go inside the cockpit, see the bomb-bay doors open and were surrounded by lots of friendly staff who were full of interesting information and facts about the aircraft! 10/10 cannot fault a single thing with the experience. Me & Steve are even going to look into coming to one of the taxi run days in the near future ???? would highly recommend!!!

I can not recommend this pub highly enough. The atmosphere is warm and friendly and it’s the sort of place where everyone is made to feel welcome and wants to stay for just one more. Ian and Alison behind the bar are friendly and professional and know their beer. The craft beer is fantastic and wine and gin drinkers won’t be disappointed either.

Excellent first experience with a 1 hour traditional Thai full body massage this afternoon, which really exceeded my expectations! All of the staff were great and friendly upon arrival and throughout the massage, she made sure I was comfortable and asked which areas she should focus on. Overall an amazing first experience, would highly recommend for anyone and I'll for sure be back in the next couple of weeks.

This is the third room we have done now, previously as just two of us and this time as a five. The three rooms we have done are very well thought through and the staff are really friendly. You get two hints if you need them (we did) but the buzz you get when you escape is awesome. Great fun for the family or friends or maybe even a work team building session. Can’t wait to do another room soon.
