Riviera Village Kon Tiki, Ramatuelle on 28/08/2008

An extraordinary develpment that has sprung up behind the beach - the plus is apart from the 'Tahitian' huts on the beach you'd never know the seemingly hundreds of mobile home type 'lodges' were there. Depending on what you want from your holiday it...more

Kestrel Travel Consultancy Ltd, MARLBOROUGH on 27/08/2008

We took a flyer (in other word we didn't, as we usually would, consult Helphound (!) or ask a friend) and found Kestrel on the web. We booked a villa in the South of France with them (they specialise in coastal France between Marseille and Monaco) an...more

Le Bar du Port, Saint Tropez on 27/08/2008

I know it's a cliche - but sometimes cliches can be fun. Just once in your life you have to sit in a bar in Saint Tropez and watch the action - the super-yacht renters playing 'owner', the crews playing 'renter'. The general hubbub. I recommend Le Ba...more

Champion, Ste Maxime on 27/08/2008

Very disappointing - quality as well as price. Basics were poor - tired bread, soggy olives, tasteless melons. Charcuterie too uninspiring to even consider buying. Wine selection not particularly exciting either. Try 'Ed' in Cogolin....more

Easycar on 22/08/2008

Not a happy bunny - 'no cars available' email from Easycar at 10.30 on Friday morning, having requested availability on Monday - not impressive....more

Topshop, Exeter on 22/08/2008

Unimpressed, which is no surprise at my age - but so was my 14 year old companion. Poor quality design and finish. I'd rather pay 20 for something reasonably well made than 15 for lesser quality. When I was younger I would pay anything (within reas...more

Woostock Gardens and Arboretum, Kilkenny on 21/08/2008

One of the most magical gardens in Ireland, maybe the world - and hardly a flower in sight. In a fabulous position overlooking the river Nore above the village of Inistioge (Circle of Friends). A must if you are ever within striking distance....more

Ourgreyhounds.co.uk on 21/08/2008

Fantastic website for anyone considering adopting a greyhound. I hope they won't mind me quoting their 'Top 10 reasons...

10. They don't slobber
9. They hardly shed hair.
8. They don't need very much exercise.
7. They're the...more

Hunters Hotel, Wicklow on 21/08/2008

A wonderful hotel, run for as long as anyone can remember by the Gelletlie family. Just off the beaten track (thank goodness) within an easy hour's drive south of Dublin. A true slice of real Irish hospitality, comfort and craic....more

Europcar UK Limited, EDINBURGH on 21/08/2008

I expect in the hire car business there are only two levels of customer satisfaction - happy or really seriously p@@$*d off. Let's face it, if anything goes wrong you're not going to be pleased. Well something did go wrong - i left my mobile in the c...more

Easycar on 21/08/2008

Not for the faint of heart. You may have to wait up to three days to find out if they have a car available. NOT so great if you are looking to travel in the next week. I suspect this is because Easycar are only able to quote such keen rates by hoover...more

White Stuff, EXETER on 21/08/2008

Just back from the White stuff sale - good kit, good prices - 3 pairs of shorts for under 40. Well laid out shop - no doubts as to what was in the sale and what wasn't. Quiet unobtrusive assistant, plenty of changing rooms....more

Hampton Court Palace, EAST MOLESEY on 20/08/2008

One of the few truly versatile attractions within reach of central London - adults, children, gardeners, artists, old, young, even teenagers (there are just enough links with sex and death to keep them amused)....more

Virgin Wines Online Ltd, NORWICH on 19/08/2008

I'm sorry - I've just had enough 'matey' emails. They don't know me, and I certainly don't believe the 'We've got just enough for you' sort of tosh they think will jolt me into buying. I've unsubscribed. ...more

Sainsbury's, EXETER on 18/08/2008

'WARNING - male cleaner working.' Well, not very well. Who trains these guys to ignore the ghastliness? Time was when French loos were the laughing stock of the British nation - no longer. Just back from France and nothing like this, even in autorout...more
