Big mistake you mention you accept dogs because they will make a point of finding a dog hair even where no dogs have been.

Reading tonight's comments agree with everybody. Prices for rooms nice as they were, far too high. Catherine's bedding was rank, how could that have been missed? On a side note Catherine does love her florals and somebody please ask what channel Shannon is picking up on her satellite dish earrings?
Catherine would drive me insane not only with her mogadon voice but the fact she always finds fault with everything! I did initially like the boys but they showed themselves as prats after their forensic investigations. Ben and Sian seem ok but their writing in the dusty drawer was not required they weren't surprised by the boys getting them back. Too much tit fer tat. |

Exactly, they didnt seem very clued up. I have a rough collie, he doesn't go upstairs as he doesnt like those stairs, however his hair gets up there all the time, on the carpets and rugs. They were a bit silly to think hair wouldnt be on other rugs as the dogs will be in the common areas.
Also couldnt believe the sheets. If I were to go on this show, I would make sure the sheets and protectors were fresh and never before used, its not just for the people, bt also it being on tv, it could ruin your business! At £140 a night it would have to be something special anyway but after seeing that I wouldn't go near the place. |

Exactly what my wife said. Even if they had to buy new beds,the cost would surely out way how much financially it will hit them now after seeing the state of there bedding.
At £140 a night it would have to be something special anyway but after seeing that I wouldn't go near the place. I would never spend that money on a bandb, but when you go past £100, I think you need some extras and something special, which this just wasn't. |

AH! so they ARE allowed to ask for replacement pillows and duvets

I think once its stained and you cant get it out, then it needs to be replaced for how much they are charging for the room imo

Reading the TA reviews they seem to employ young inexperienced staff. I guess they didn't check the rooms before the visit.
I don't care how young and inexperienced staff are, they can be given a specification of what the job entails and what expectations and standards are. Quote:
Depends if you want well cooked or burnt!
Very silly to serve them like that and also the overcooked fried egg. If you can see it's overcooked, don't serve it! Quote:
Oh the irony from the dusty boys...(
So lax to turn into people who live in a glass house. Quote:
...I hope they don't underpay everyone and make me look like an idiot now.

I've just been looking at the sample menu on the Fritton Arms website and it lists "deserts" http://www.frittonarms.co.uk/sample-menus/ Very unprofessional.

Weren't they just fibres from a cleaning cloth on the mirror?
I think the point was, whatever it was made of, it shouldn't have been there. I was very disappointed in the standards today and if it'd been my place, with managers in, I'd have carried out my own inspection beforehand. I would not have been happy with housekeeping, at. all. ![]() Today's managers don't seem to have grasped the difference between a nice, relaxed atmosphere and being too lax and putting style over substance. They need to up their game on the basics. Hope you have a good evening ew. |

The stains were a rookie error - I can only imagine they hadn't watched the show before as its 4iab 101 to strip the bed down. |

As I've mentioned, Fritton Arms is just down the road from me. Having seen it tonight, I would not recommend it to anyone, and I do sometimes get asked if I know of anywhere good to stay in our neck of the woods. £140 is far too much for this area, and - sin of sins - they are charging an exorbitant sum and no wardrobe!!!!! Unforgiveable in such large rooms.

But for that matter guests could bring in hairs from home - I'm sure I carry a few cat hairs to wherever I visit. Anyway, was it established that dogs were allowed in the communal areas or just the rooms?

Oh dear - this couple have relied too heavily on the staff. Stained linen and putting the boys in a room where they hadn't checked for dust in the drawers! Lovely as it is I would be hard-pressed to pay £140 for a room anywhere. The Glastonbury place would probably be my favourite - but I couldn't take my dog, so ...

![]() ![]() It would put me right off - plus if they're so dickish with something as simple as the price, you just know they will server bread in an old cloth cap and your beef bouginon will come on an old coal shovel... |
