Sewerby Hall & Gardens Review (Place Reviews) (Reviews)

Review by Warren Woodhouse

Rating: 4.8 stars

Beautiful and well looked after gardens, plenty of parking for disabled people, it’s a shame you can’t take dogs on leashes through the house or cafe. Otherwise, I’ve really enjoyed my visit.

Dog friendly attraction. The quiz adds a bit of fun. Delightfully simple, quaint and you can see the attention to detail of newly painted buildings, well kept gardens. Highly recommended.

Filey Bird Garden and Animal Park Review (Place Reviews) (Reviews)

Review by Warren Woodhouse

Rating: 5 stars

A beautiful zoo, the animals are happy. Very limited parking spaces for disabled people, there are no payment options for disabled people. We really enjoyed our time there and it’s incredibly well looked after and it even has a sensory garden as well. Highly recommend.

Shockingly overpriced for a regular fish and chips, you have to pay for parking, no disabled parking bays, miserable staff, slow service for food orders. Appalling.

Review By: Warren Woodhouse

Rating: 5 Stars

Official Website: https://www.wales-cottages.info/north-wales/snowdonia-mountains-and-coast/y-bwthyn-cc612035?range=0

A beautiful welsh cottage situated near the village of Harlech. The cottage is a short walk away from the beach and a short walk from the nearest train station. Perfect for a small 3 adult family holiday or a couples holiday near the heart of Snowdonia National Park.

Ample parking is available. WiFi is available. It’s also near the Mostlyn Guest House which is at the back of this cottage.

Catch Seafood Ponteland Review (Place Reviews) (Reviews)

Review By: Warren Woodhouse

Rating: 5 Stars

I went here for my sister Kirsty’s birthday meal out recently and it was such an inviting atmosphere. They do cater for Vegans as well but you must call up in advance, the only Vegan meal they have is a non-fish Curry. The prices vary per dish with the main menu being cheaper than the specials menu, although the prices are usually between £10 to £20 per dish with drinks varying at prices. The value of the service was fantastic; the quality of the fish was so fresh that my sister had tiny particles of sand in her Fish Broth and I had no bones in my Seabass. On the walls you can see photos that tell the history of the restaurant and the local area where they fished years ago. The car park is free at the back and they even have disabled parking up near the main entrance along with an accessibility wheelchair ramp. Perfect for a casual couples meal out, meal out with friends or a family function. They have clean bathrooms and the staff are very friendly. I highly recommend this for a meal out.

The Dental Care Clinic Review (Place Reviews) (Reviews)

Review By: Warren Woodhouse

Rating: 1 Star

The staff are slow and I recently found out that it's part of NHS because I got a charge of £125 from this dentist (2017) even though I used this dentist before and I was never charged before. Never coming to this terrible dentist practice again.

Kenton School Sports Facility Review (Place Reviews) (Reviews)

Review By: Warren Woodhouse

Rating: 5 Stars

It has a great gift shop, vending machines, wheelchair accessible and sporting events which are free to local Kenton residents.

The only thing that bothered me is that the referees can't judge the teams properly and the score board doesn't become updated quickly.

I'm friends with the local basketball team and official team photographer. There are 2 teams that play here and I'm friends with Kenton Lightning Basketball Team & Tees Valley Mohawks Basketball Team of Teesside University.

From the times I've visited Sports Central Arena to watch matches of Newcastle Eagles, the ticket prices are affordable and the food prices are cheaper too. Great viewing experiences and great wheelchair accessibility.

NAAFI JHO Max Store

Marienfelder Straße 999, 33334 Gütersloh, Germany.

This used to be my favourite place when I lived in Germany. It had everything i need to make my shopping
experience more enjoyable and for someone who doesn't really enjoy shopping.. that's saying alot, ain't it?

Tivoli Gardens

Vesterbrogade 3, 1630 København, Denmark.

I had a 2 week holiday and work experience abroad in Copenhagen, Denmark, and it was thanks to the staff at ID Training who suggested that we all go to Tivoli - Denmark's oldest theme park, and very enjoyable with live shows, wonderful food, small shops, large restaurants, lots of rollercoaster rides and lots more. A wonderful experience that I won't ever forget.

Really nice atmosphere, good customer service, attention to detail. Food ordering is great, lots of choices. I used to go here when I was a kid since I used to live in Blankenhagen. Nice town and lovely restaurants.
