Group Holidays Testimonials
Don't just take our word on how good our Group holidays are, read what our Group Organisers have to say:
I just wanted to let you know we had a fabulous time at Blackpool! All 30 of us and the 4 dogs loved it.
I would also like to say that the staff at the hotel were fabulous - the best we’ve experienced. A special shout out to the lovely lady from the coffee shop; the chef Chris who was so customer focussed and made the best Yorkshire puddings; and also to Neil who was a great character and provided an amazing afternoon of Easter games.
I also want to thank you for making sure all of our room requests, dietary requests and birthday requests were passed on effectively to the hotel. Everything was great and as an added bonus the hotel even gave me a thank you card and chocolates for the booking! There was also loads of Easter eggs for us to enjoy and hot cross buns on Good Friday.
Our only complaint would be our lack of success on the bingo!!

Our trip was superb!! The group really enjoyed themselves - walking by day and dancing by night. The Barrowfield was perfect for us! Our hikers can't speak highly enough of the hard working staff at the hotel. Long hours for them but they always worked with a smiley face and plenty of enthusiasm. Well done to them!
The Daish's coach was lovely. It felt like we were floating on a cloud, both there and back. Dom delivers a luxury ride, no question about that! He's a nice chap, too.
All the walks went very well - I'm pleased to say! My much-planned guided itinerary over the three days worked a treat: we walked from the hotel on two days and the 19 who wanted to, enjoyed a walk from our Padstow excursion location as well.
The notes and emails of thanks from the hikers are still coming my way, which makes all the group organising feel so worthwhile and personally rewarding for me - and Jim who helped me pre-walk the tours. The hikers certainly had fun - and that is thanks to the help of both of you at Daish Groups, especially Karen for her quick responses when the group was in its formation stage which helped get it off the ground promptly, allowing me to capitalise on the rapid interest there was for this break. The patience with the room/name changes, the special requirement list (no issues at the hotel whatsoever!) and the suggestion of the coach was invaluable. All very efficient and so much appreciated - thank you both for a wonderful job done so well!

A big THANK YOU to all who enabled my group, Buckden Friends, to have a lovely holiday at the Hotel Prince Regent in Weymouth. We were very impressed, the food was great, any problems were quickly sorted and the evening entertainment was good. Max our driver was helpful and even put the Royal Wedding on Radio 4 for us which was much appreciated!

We have recently returned from a 4 night break at the Somerset Hotel, Llandudno and what a wonderful time we had. There were 48 in our party and everyone said they really enjoyed themselves. The food, entertainment and position on the seafront was perfect. The weather was glorious and our trip to Portmeirion which was arranged for us by Martin, was absolutely fantastic. Andy, our driver for the whole holiday was really excellent and most helpful and informative. We found John, Richard and all the staff at the Somerset friendly and very efficient. Llandudno is a wonderful seaside town and I am sure we will return for another holiday.
Thank you to everyone and a special thank you to Shelly and Martin for all her their help with our booking, making my job much easier.
Janice Sadler, Dymchurch Active Retirement Association - May 2018
Wow! What a location, (Somerset Hotel in Llandudno) couldn't be better. Lovely clean rooms, comfortable beds and plenty of hot water. Friendly, cheerful staff throughout the hotel - nothing too much trouble. Picnic lunches for our day out and return journey fresh and ready for our departures. Tasty, well served food. Great evening entertainment.
'The icing on the cake' was having Craig as our Coach Driver - excellent driver, smart appearance, immaculate coach, friendly and cheerful - a real 'People Person' and for me, as Organiser of the Group, a pleasure to work with.
I've always said a Driver can 'make or break' a trip - Craig certainly made ours.

Roy Brown (pictured bottom right) organised a whole coach load on a trip to Newquay in February 2018 from Hucknall near Nottingham. Some of these intrepid walkers tramped all the way from Trenance back to Newquay in beautiful warm sunshine.
Roy Brown and friends - February 2018
Thank you so much for your help, patience and understanding as well as the kindness with the booking of our holiday. All our members and those husbands and friends that came along thoroughly enjoyed themselves. Loved the hotel, the food, the staff and we were so lucky with the weather and of course the Isle of Wight is still so very pretty.
Brenda Francis, Southbourne WI Group - October 2017
Barbara Holmes and her group had a great time staying at Daish's Hotel in Shanklin. They were even joined by our driver Graeme on his day off to assist the gentleman in the wheelchair on an excursion.

"We enjoyed our best ever reunion in Llandudno this year. Here are some of the group at "that" place. We look forward to our next reunion with Daish's in 2018."
Gerald Rice, Christmas Island Nuclear Bomb Test Reunion Group - June 2017
"Thanks for a great stay at the Hotel Prince Regent while we performed at St Andrews Church in Weymouth. We (and our wives) enjoyed a ramble around the coastline."
