Potters Resort


A rather different post from me today. I haven't had much time for crafting so I thought I would share some photos of our one night break at Potters Resort.  Graham took this selfie of us when we arrived.  The decorations were lovely, staff and guests looking very festive. We met our friends there who arrived just as the mulled wine and mince pies were being served. Potters have a hotel as part of the main building and bungalows in the grounds. We paid extra to stay in a hotel room. They have deluxe and penthouse suites but we stayed in one of the premier rooms, which are their standard rooms. they are huge.


We enjoyed a festive quiz and playing card bingo in the afternoon. After dressing for the evening we met up again and headed into the dining room for a delicious evening meal with as much wine as you care to drink. Then it was off to the theatre for the fantastic Christmas show. This is a shot of the theatre we took in the afternoon whilst it was empty.


There is a disco in another room after the show and singers in the bar with a small dance floor. They serve a midnight feast which was pasta bolognaise and salad. After dancing we all felt a bit peckish so we enjoyed a small plate of food then it was time to head off to bed just before 1.

In the morning we packed and after a cooked breakfast we took part in a general knowledge quiz and we won. The great thing about this resort is you can get there when you like on the first day and stay as long as you like provided you have checked out of your room on time.  There are lots of activities to enjoy and a walk along the clifftops takes you down to a lovely beach. We have been for a long beach walk previously but it was too cold for that.

I hope you have enjoyed my post today, back tomorrow with something crafty.
