Better food in pentonville
Just got back from pakefield and I now feel like i need a holiday. We only ate there one night due to the food being utter muck..It cost us an extra £100 to eat out in pubs for 3 nights. The nice bar that had quizzes and games shuts at 10 pm so you have to have a drink listening to very loud music in the main ballroom. I could go on but I guess you get what you deserve going to these places....money grabbing fat cats that have lost all direction regarding running a holiday camp....!! Big thumbs down
