We stayed at Cricket St Thomas Valentines weekend 2009 and found the majority of guests were in the late sixties and over age group. The entertainment was on par with any show on the West End and the staff apart from one person in the restaurant were very attentive and... more

Absolutely Fantastic! A definate Must! And we're not over 40!
Just returned from a fantastic 4 night break, we had a wonderful time! we are not over 60 or even over 40 but it suited us to a tee!! The Staff are friendly and helpful and NOTHING is too much trouble for anyone! We were lucky enough to stay in the actual Cricket House which is a Royale Room and would definately recommend them if you can manage it. The only problem with being in the house was that there is a beautiful split staircase up to all the rooms and no disabled access that we could see. Also the main complex is quite a walk although there is a bar in the house that serves good food during the day and is very pleasant. The entertainment team is outstanding and one of the best shows we have seen was the West End Musicals which brought a tear to the eye in places, it was really THAT good. I can understand where previous guests have said about the restaurant being like an oversized canteen but dont be put off by that! The food is of very good quality and at least with the carvery section you can have as much or as little as you like. Having said that you dont have to queue at the carvery you can have a very nice meal delivered to your table off the menu and we found these to be perfectly acceptable too. Cricket House was the original setting for the TV series To The Manor Born which we only found out when we got there and that just added to the whole experience! The grounds are outstanding as you would expect from a wildlife park and if you walk outside just about any door you will walk into the park itself. We took one path and literally almost walked into the Cheatah enclosure!! Dont know who was more surprised!!! We found there was a fair amount of walking involved but if you want a quiet retreat with no children, ok maybe the other clients are older than you (but we just felt younger!!) but this really was everything we could have wanted and will be returning! MOST IMPORTANTLY . PLEASE DO NOT BE PUT OFF BY PREVIOUS BAD REPORTS. THE FOOD IS GREAT, THE STAFF ARE EXCELLENT, THE ROOMS ARE SUPURB, THE ENTERTAINMENT IS ENTHRALLING. THE SETTING AND ACTIVITES REALLY MAKE UP FOR ANY QUEUE YOU MAY HAVE TO ENDURE FOR THE CARVERY!! PLEASE GO ...... AND ENJOY!
