I am going to this Hotel shortly and read the reviews on Trip advisor, has any Gransnet member been to this hotel and what did you think of it? We are going for a special occasion so it has to be right.

I've only been for lunch.. A couple of years ago. It's in a very nice position

Thank you Atqui, this trip is so important as my husband is terminally ill so will be our last one, so everything needs to be perfect. Thanks again

A very good friend went there last summer with her DH who has been diagnosed with Alzheimer's and may not be able to go on holiday again. It is one of their favourite hotels and were very well looked after.
flowers I hope you can make some happy memories sunshine

Thank you everyone for your comments, my husband has Mesothelioma and was given the prognosis of six months which was 18 months ago!! We know he has limited time left and want to have lovely times until the end. We are looking forward to our holiday (garden room, sea views)but live each and every day as best we can. Thank you once again for replying

Hope you have a wonderful time - but don't put too much pressure on yourself for 100% perfection, it will be perfect because of your love flowers]

Thank you everybody for your kind replies, we have so much to look forward to in the next month, my Husbands relatives are coming over to visit next week, then our son's wedding (to a really lovely girl)they bought the date forward just for us, then our holiday, so we only look for the good the bad takes a backseat.
After reading Gransnet for months before trying the waters, I'v been heartened by how many good people there are in this world, thank you once again Gransnetters (flowers)

Opps meant to say relatives from Canada are coming to visit, plus I tried to put a bunch of flowers but it didn't work, tch! typical me x

Enjoy your holiday, dallas, and all the things you have to look forward to.

The (flowers) would have become flowers if you had used [ ] instead of ( ) round them.
