In August 2026, HM said about The Last Drop Village Hotel & Spa
The surroundings of the hotel were absolutely lovely, with lots of greenery which made it feel really peaceful and relaxing. The spa was definitely one of the highlights of our stay. It had a lovely pool which, although it wasn’t heated, was great for lane swimming, as well as a really nice thermal suite with a sauna and aroma rooms.
However, there were a few areas that could be improved. The room itself felt quite dated and didn’t have a fridge, which would have been useful. Breakfast was also a little disappointing, particularly as there weren’t many halal options available. We opted for the vegan breakfast instead, but unfortunately didn’t find it particularly enjoyable. There were also dogs around the breakfast area, which I personally found quite unhygienic and uncomfortable while eating.
The service could have been a little more attentive too. At breakfast, we were given a menu and then the staff member walked away without explaining how ordering worked or coming back to take our order.
Similarly, when checking in at reception, we were mainly just given our room card. It would have made the experience much smoother if we had been given a quick introduction to the hotel, including where the spa and breakfast areas were located and their opening times. We ended up having to call reception several times to ask for this information.
Overall, the setting and spa were beautiful and really enjoyable, but the rooms, breakfast options and level of service could definitely be improved to make the stay feel more welcoming and organised.

Highly recommend these solicitors
I would highly recommend Fountain solicitors. They have shown me nothing but expert advise, support and empathy. I have found it challenging dealing with legal affairs when I am not based in the country but they have helped me in every aspect with ease, fluency and expert advice. I am incredibly grateful for this company. I was dealing with a very stressful situation but Mr Hussain and team stepped in and made everything manageable. They truly eased my pathway and handled everything with care. I feel so fortunate they were recommended to me and cannot recommend them highly enough

This place is my favourite sushi spot. The food is always amazing and comes out really quickly. Our server is always really friendly and answers any questions I have about the menu. I can’t explain enough how much I love it here!

In August 2026, Ken E. said about The Car Co
I purchased a Polestar 2 from the Carco following a test drive. I was looked after by Zubair who was very helpful, friendly and professional. I didn't feel pressured at all to make up my mind in a hurry. The administration was slick and easy.
I was looking particularly for a Polestar but I was impressed by the great looking range of premium cars in their forecourt.
The car was fully charged for my collection.
A problem with a piece of external trim occurred a week after purchase. Unfortunately, this wasn't covered by the standard warranty and I had to resolve it myself. However, to be fair, Zubair telephoned afterwards to make sure that everything had been sorted.

In August 2026, VickiAngel85 said about Paradise Wildlife Park
The last time I visited this place it was about 30 years ago and was still called Paradise Park. All I can say is wow what a transformation. Coming from the north, it’s not a place we can get to easily but due to visiting family we used this as a place to call on the way. We made a lot of comparisons to the zoo we visit in South Yorkshire. Hertfordshire zoo has absolutely smashed it. Viewing platforms are well placed. There is a great range of animals. The map is easy to follow and you work your way round simply. It took us about half a day. There’s plenty of toilets. There’s water filling stations which came in handy as it was very hot. There are plenty of cafes and huts for refreshments. Every single member of staff we encountered was friendly. The volunteers were great too. If you are a regular visitor, there’s plenty to keep the kids entertained. It’s just a shame that there is a charge for the Dino train as the ticket prices are quite expensive. The paddling pool looked fun. Oh to be a child again.
I would love to visit again in the future. Maybe next time there will be other animals to see. I was very impressed.
