Ms Claire Thomas-S. Wales. "I recently stayed at the Royal Sportsman and would like to thank you for a most pleasant stay. I would like to complement you on your staff and comment on the friendly atmosphere of the hotel.

I didn’t have the opportunity to thank your chefs, for some of the most enjoyable food I have eaten for a long time and I would like to emphasize that this was especially the rack of lamb with mash and cabbage which had some beautiful flavours. I would be pleased to recommend you to any of my friends or colleges in the future." January 11th 2008

Remember us from West Yorkshire?? My sister and I accompany mum now and again to your lovely hotel, we bring Jodie, our doberman whom you kindly babysat one day so we could go on the railway up Snowdon, you had a bit of a hard time with her!!
Well, I promised mum I would mail you because we missed saying goodbye to you after staying at your hotel with some of the rest of our family, just one overnight stay, it would have been dad's birthday that week-end so we got together to mark the event.
We all had a lovely time, as ever we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and had a fabulous meal in your restaurant. The only down side was that it was only for one night, not to worry though. I hope we have many visits to come and I am sure we will see you in the future. Our best regards to your lovely wife and Daniel. Julie Bucknell from West Yorkshire-12th October 2006
