My holiday was made extra special by…
My holiday was made extra special by the attentions of Judith and the driver Grant . They went above and beyond to ensue all had a good time . My one complaint is that the evening meal was buffet style . It is not good for mainly elderly guests with poor mobility to get up and down several times a meal .

Thank you so much for your review and we're pleased to hear that Grant and Judith looked after you well. Wherever possible we now always try to ensure dinner is waiter service and we hope the buffet style didn't cause you too many issues. Thanks again for your comments and review, we hope to see you again soon.
No Title
Palmers Coach and driver were excellent, cannot say that for the service and food at evening meal. Starters and Desserts were good but the main course was very poor quality food. The service was very poor, not enough staff to serve the amount of people dining in the restaurant or in the section we were in.

After an excellent holiday in March to…Total disappointment this July
After an excellent holiday in March to wales. This was a true disappointment.
Hotel very poor service. Not enough staff. First evening meal took 2 and 1/2 hours. Ordered beef and Yorkshire pudding. Meat inedible. Dried up chunks . Not able to cut or chew. Yorkshire pudding non existent.Hotel was very quiet first night.
Hotel busy from then on. Service still poor especially for coach tour. Food did not improve. Last night again inedible.
Hotel long way from other facilities. Outdoor pool derelict. Indoor pool still in use.
End of term party one night very busy. Hard to get to bar. Toilets disgusting. After telling reception did not improve till mentioned to bar staff.
We did enjoy each others company on our holiday . Having a laugh together. Just a shame this hotel let us and Palmers down.

5 days at cricket st Thomas
5 days at cricket st Thomas. Food was excellent. Evening entertainment very good. Accommodation not very good windows in room very small letting in no fresh air. Room was not cleaned once towels changed only once. Room was old fashioned not modern at all. Main house was lovely along with grounds and gardens. Although lots of Wasp's in Main building when eating. All amenities are a good walk from Room. The coach is described as luxury we disagree very limited leg room not great on a long journey.

Yorkshire Dales are good.
Apart from the weather, which is beyond your control, the holiday was good. The coach was new, the driver Lewis was very good, and the tour manager was exceptionally knowledgeable. It was good to visit so many places, but the time allocated for both Harrogate and York was too short. A longer time in York and zero time in Harrogate might have worked better. The cruise on the Leeds to Liverpool canal was pleasant, but didn't deliver quite what we were expecting. 2 hours with afternoon tea would have been better. But, overall the holiday was still a good experience.

Hello Ian,
Thank you for your lovely feedback. We’re glad you enjoyed the holiday overall and appreciated the new coach, Lewis’s driving, and the Tour Manager’s knowledge.
Your comments on the timings in Harrogate and York, as well as the canal cruise, are really helpful – we’ll certainly take them into account for future planning.
Despite the weather, we’re so pleased it was still a good experience, and we hope to welcome you on another holiday soon!

Windsir and Hampton Court. t indication that all was not…
The first indication that all was not well was when our taxi turned up and said he was taking us to Scotch Corner when our itinerary was for Washington Services. Palmers had not sent us any information regarding this change. The taxi driver was excellent. He contacted Palmers to confirm this destination. When we arrived at Scotch corner there were other couples brought there instead of their original coach pick up point. We waited in the cold for 20 minutes before a driver from a white coach which had been parked all the time we were there came over and announced Windsor and Hampton court. Why did he leave us standing all that time? The coach was not really up to the standard we expected. It rattled and jerked the whole journey. The coach driver did not seem to know where he was going or how many people he was picking up. The hotel was nice if a bit out of the way .Ourvisit to Windsor was not long enough the driver was too interested in getting to the hotel. The Hampton court
visit was very good a full day without the driver. Next day on our way home with a visit to Henley on Thames. When dropping off someone had to sit up front with the driver to direct him into the towns. He missed the turn off at Durham and again someone had to direct him back. We were recommended Palmers from a friend but we will not be using your company again. We thought it was chaos.

Thank you for your review and comments above, I'm sorry to read of the issues you experienced. Unfortunately this tour had to be operated by an alternative coach company due to an operational problem, however this shouldn't have affected your enjoyment or the service you received and we'll certainly look into the points raised. We're sorry for any inconvenience and I hope this won't deter you from booking with us again. Regards, Lisa.
Hampton Court experience
Really enjoyed our recent weekend with Palmers. Good itinerary, with stop offs at Windsor and Henley on Thames. The main event was hampton court; but even with nearly 6 hours free time we still didn't see all of it. The only thing that some people moaned about was that we had to walk about 10mins to the entrance because coaches weren't allowed to drop off outside hampton.
Hotel at Reading football club was fabulous 👌 extremely clean, comfortable and the food was really nice......no hard bacon 🥓 or sausage here. The only downside was that if you wanted to use spa and pool you had to book, and because it was weekend it was fully booked.
The only complaint we had was the bus; it was a bit creaky and the air conditioning wasn't working properly so it was very uncomfortable on our 9 hour journey home!!

Hello Kevin,
Thank you so much for your fantastic and detailed review!
We're thrilled to hear you had such a great weekend with us – from the itinerary and hotel to the food and door to door service, it sounds like many aspects really hit the mark. Hampton Court is a real treasure, and we totally agree – even six hours can fly by when there's so much to explore!
We're sorry to hear about the issues with the coach and air conditioning on the return journey – thank you for flagging that, and please be assured we're looking into it to make future journeys more comfortable. We also understand the spa being fully booked was a bit of a let-down – weekends can be tricky, but we’ll continue working with our partners to improve access where we can.
We hope to welcome you back on another Palmers holiday very soon!
