Sychnant Pass News

New Suites for 2007

We have two new suites open with their own hot tubs.  Though neither have the lovely views the rest of the rooms have, they more than make up for it with completely private terraces and their own hot tubs...........the perfect place to enjoy a glass fizz

There was great excitement at Sychnant Pass when the postman delivered  this.  Diets and exercise plans are all the rage and there are big discussions about frocks and such.  More details after the big event.  Needless to say we are very honoured and delighted to be included in this lovely event.

Meeting the Royal Family

We had the most marvellous visit which just flew past.  We were treated like royalty and met the Queen, Prince Philip, Prince Edward and Princess Alexandra.

I was delight to be able to drive through the arches into the inner courtyard.  We were met by the palace staff in the throne room and provided with a program and badges.  We were one of only six couples invited and there was about six hundred guests  but met some folk we knew which was great.  We were given drinks and nibbles (lovely) and the Royal Family mingled with their guests and made us feel very relaxed.  They had spent the day at other engagements to do with the Tourism Industry and still appeared to be fresh and interested.  We sometimes think our job is hard but when we spoke to their staff were told how hard they work we decided that we have the easier option.  It was all over too fast but we have wonderful memories.

Booker's Marketing Director Mark Collier added, "It's thanks to people like Graham and Bre that British catering has moved on so far and so fast in the past decade. People now expect far more from a guest house than just a bed for the night; they're looking for all-round excellence and a memorable experience. We're delighted to be able to recognize the dedication of those professionals who are helping put UK catering back on top."
