Our mistake!
We had made an error when booking with Amber, at the Southwnd on Sea branch.
After a conversation the following day, with Olivia, we felt we had been listened to, and our concerns had been dealt with very professionally.
Olivia had managed to get us a full refund on our booking, which was a massive relief.
Amber then helped us book, explaining all we had asked for was available, and all charges where included. All organised through the tour operator of our choice.
The whole experience, from our mistake, to booking what we wanted was handle with a brilliant attitude and very professional manner.
All of the staff were helping us where they could.
The service supplied has been excellent.
Thanks to all.

Anna was very helpful
Anna was very helpful, friendly and great advice, as we had a few holidays to look into. She did this to a small budget but found some lovely hotels and in nice quiet areas. The lady that took our payment a few days later was also very good, quick and friendly as she should have been on lunch but went above and beyond her duty. Thank you ladies for an easy way to book a great holiday to look forward too
