New year - new website

Hello and welcome to 2010. I know it's well and truly here now and that you're probably wondering what I'm going on about - it is February after all! But, this is my first blog of the year, so I'm reserving the right to wish you all Happy New Year.

I must apologise for the severe lack of postings to the blog over the last few months. My only excuse is that Christmas got in the way. That and I had flu! We had a very busy festive season, and although early on it looked as if things may have been quieter than the previous year, we managed to break all our records! We had a lot of fun too along the way, and certainly managed to enter into some of the festive spirit . . . (I'll say no more!)

This last few weeks have been spent tweaking our new website, which I hope you like as much as we do. This site has the facility for me to update regularly, so be sure to stop by every now and then to see the new stuff. Please take a few minutes to have a look around the site and let me know what you think - there's a contact us page for any comments. There are still a few things I need to add and a couple of minor changes to make, but on the whole it's ready - and raring to go!

We're also developing a Newsletter, which will go out quarterly - so you won't be bombarded with emails if you sign-up.

I remember, long ago, promising to do a series of 'Then & Now' blogs, with pictures of the hotel before and after we'd refurbished. I still intend to do these - hopefully over the next few weeks.

All that remains is to wish you all a great 2010 and hope to see you soon!
