"I made a reservation through Infotel for the Park Inn Cardiff City Centre. Unfortunately when I submitted my original booking request the original hotel was fully booked. However Infotel provided an excellent service and found me alternative accommodation in the area. I would highly recommend their service and will be using them myself again in the future" CRAIG WAUD

"Infotel is a fantastic company to use, our original hotel booking fell through and it was really nice to ring up someone else to let them sort it all out for us. Will definitely be using Infotel again." SUSAN PARKIN

Christmas Day

Boxing Day

After a delicious full English breakfast why not take advantage of their excellent leisure spa facilities and work up an appetite for what’s to come! Alternatively, you may prefer to test your general knowledge in their exciting hotel quiz. With great prizes to be won this will be a guaranteed fun-filled event! Now for the best part... a full traditional four course Christmas lunch, with a visit from Santa and gifts for all the children! The place of indulgence is The Grosvenor Suite at 12.30pm. In the afternoon you can retire to Nelson’s Bar for the Queen’s speech followed by the usual Christmas television programmes. Or if you prefer, why not choose from their selection of board games to pass a few hours. A light festive buffet will be served in the evening, after which you can draw Christmas Day to an end with a fun filled evening of singing and dancing with their resident DJ. A special prize will be awarded to the best singer of the Christmas break!

Enjoy a leisurely full English breakfast in Ciro’s Brasserie. Following a scrumptious carvery luncheon, please ask for details on our special Christmas spa packages. On return to the hotel get ready to put on your glad rags and join the other hotel guests for an evening of musical entertainment at the farewell Boxing Day dinner dance where you will be treated to a performance from the sensational Peter Cutler, international cabaret artist direct from the West End! This talented singer and comedian will not fail to impress you with his fine selection of big band Frank Sinatra and Rat Pack classics before moving on to some terrific up-tempo classics, including 70’s disco, Rock ‘n’ Roll and Motown, so you can dance the night away. After all of this excitement you’ll surely be ready for your bed at the end of the night.

"Philip & Jane Sagar are well experienced in managing luxury Hotels in the UK and offer guests a warm welcome." AA Guide 2010/11 Philip & Jane believe there is a gap in the market between 4 star hotels and budget accommodation that the traditional B&B or Guest House does not supply. They aim to bridge that gap with their Town House accommodation using quality fittings usually only found in the biggest and best hotels. All the beds are made by Hypnos and offer real comfort and a good night’s sleep.

“Year on year we keep coming back....” “....as there is no where better for a comfortable, relaxing stay with excellent service and hospitality from Jane & Philip. Been coming here for many years for the Burghley Horse Trials and book again as soon as we leave. What more can I say - try it you won't be disappointed!” NantwichFlatley

Holiday Which Magazine of Autumn 2004 carried a feature on Lincolnshire titled ‘Antiques Road show’ with tips and guidance on where to buy antiques in the county and recommendations on ‘Good places to stay’. The guide singled out Rock Lodge as the only property in Stamford that really impressed, as "More a small hotel than a B&B with very stylish bedrooms."
