Didn't
stay
here
but
we
were
given
a
voucher
that
my
partner
and
I
used
for
afternoon
tea,
as
the
description
of
it
sounded
really
enjoyable.
Unfortunately
the
reality
of
what
we
received
fell
way
short
of
what
was
described
on
the
voucher
website.
It
wasn't
even
meeting
the
standard
described
of
afternoon
tea
on
the
hotel's
own
website.
No
choice
of
sandwiches,
just
egg
mayo,
tuna
mayo,
cheese
and
onion
in
wraps
or
ham
and
tomato.
Seriously,
the
fillings
tasted
like
they
came
from
a
cheap
catering
pot
or
supermarket,
rather
than
hand
made.
The
fresh
scone
had
been
heated
but
it
looked
like
the
ones
you
buy
at
Tesco.
Not
really
special
occasion,
more
kids
party
grade
food.
The
afternoon
tea
described
by
the
hotel
menu
gave
a
range
of
sandwich
options
you
could
choose
from
and
the
options
were
more
of
the
standard
you
expect.
No
offer
of
filter
coffee,
only
the
sachets
of
Nescafe
like
you
get
in
a
hotel
room.
No
loose
leaf
tea,
only
bags.
No
glass
of
"fizz"
either.
The
kicker
is
that
the
afternoon
tea
advertised
by
the
hotel
is
£14.95
per
person.
The
voucher
cost
£40.
Absolutely
the
most
cynical
money
grab
ever
as
I
expect
the
cost
to
this
establishment
was
no
more
than
£8
total.
