Loved it all , unfortunately the coffee choice is not to my liking and the air vents were pumping cold air through but was rectified with blankets.
The SidingsA répondu il y a 7 jours
Thank you for your feedback! We're so glad to hear you loved your visit overall. We appreciate your honesty about the coffee and the air vents. We're currently working on improving the air vent system to ensure everyone is comfortable. In the meantime, we're glad the blankets helped. We hope to welcome you back soon!

Just a nice relaxing atmosphere for lunch. Food wasn’t complicated but excellently presented and really tasty. Girls serving couldn’t be more helpful and polite. We love treating ourselves to a meal at Carriages or the Sidings, we will be back!
