End of year break visting the hotel I stayed in to collect my degree with the Open University. Visited Dartmouth always good to visit and Old train staion on quay side providing good food at resonable prices. Started Christmas shopping in Torquay getting some good buys from the sales in the big stores, Had a brilliant day at Paignton Zoo (two adults no children!!)and visited Dartington glass on the way home for some more bargins especialy in the childrens toy shop.

Trip to Shrewsbury
A customer who stayed at 3* Purple Hotel Shrewsbury in Shrewsbury wrote this review.
Staying at the Purple Hotel was a bit of a gamble as we had never heard of the chain before. However, Superbreak did not let us down, the Hotel was clean, beds as comfy as stated on the internet and the bathroom (including the Power Shower) was excellent. Breakfast could not be faulted, there was something for everyone in the All you Can Eat Breakfast Buffet, from toast to full English, continental, cereals, fruit. yogurts, bread rolls, croissants, fresh juice, selection of tea - peppermint, Earl Grey, etc. We ate in the Hotel so that no-one had to be a designated driver and the staff were lovely, really friendly and nothing was too much trouble for them.
