Interaction with guest

I deal with all bookings personally rather than using an agent. This allows me to tailor each booking to suit individuals needs and tastes rather than a "One Stop for All Holiday Experience". I also pre-supply Restaurant Guides and information to get the best seats and entertainment to make the most of your stay by planning before you arrive. Any other information requested is followed up to the best of my ability.
