We started off looking at props (could have gone for all the little beautiful colourful hats) but instantly she knew what we wanted for our photos the studio was easy to find and clean. When we received our sneak previews we were overcome with joy and delighted of the outcome what a talent to have. She captured photos that we can look back with joy in years to come. Maria is wonderful in every single way and definately book her for our next bambino. Highly recommended.

When our baby was 3 months old, we spontaneously decided to get some photos taken of him in a local…read morephotography studio. However, the photos were not exactly what we were looking for and we were a little disappointed. A couple of months later, I decided that we should try again to get some professional photos done. This time, I started researching baby photographers. That's how I found Maria. Although she specialises in newborn photography, I was impressed with her photos of older babies. I contacted her, and from the start she was very professional and answered all my questions and concerns. When we arrived at her studio, she made us feel welcomed and comfortable, and she was great with our little baby boy. She took so many wonderful photos that we couldn't decide which ones to choose. Both friends and family were also impressed by the lovely images she captured. Without hesitation I would recommend Maria. She is truly one of the best baby photographers around!

If you are undecided about having a wedding videographer, we…read morerecommend that you check out Steve Feeney. We went for a great value package Steve offers called the Uncle Joe, where he takes professional video instead of you relying on your guests to do it. What Steve produced for us is outstanding and exceeded all our expectations. The video is a great way to see elements of the day you may miss yourself along with bringing back all those great memories. We highly recommend Steve's services.

The little gem of Donnington…read more I have been staying here on business for a few weeks having stayed at some competitors' hotels in the local area and cannot recommend the Donnington enough. The service is always friendly yet efficient and the staff are more than happy to help with any queries or niggles I have during my stay. Rooms are split into two tiers; standard and executive (executive rooms being larger with a sofa, walk-in shower and separate bath, and robes/slippers included). Room service food is superb and always delivered promptly even during busy periods. Free Wi-Fi is available throughout the hotel. The bar area is great and the staff are friendly and attentive. The decor provides a warm, intimate and relaxing atmosphere and is great for winding down in the evening. Breakfast in the restaurant in the mornings is superb and well worth the money. The cooked breakfast is particularly tasty and features meat from local farms. The spa and gym facilities are where the hotel really shines. The pool, Jacuzzi, sauna and steam room are not to be missed (quiet times in the week are from around 7pm). The changing room/shower facilities are well thought out and provide ventilated lockers, trunk/swimming costume drying, shower gel, shampoo/conditioner, hair straighteners and driers.

We definitely look forward to each time we go and have been going here for 10+ years. In winter the fireplace is going and keeps it nice and warm. With two dining areas and outside seating (with a heated area too), there is a bit of room for groups and recommend booking for any special event. The food is always good and prepared using fresh, local ingredients. Recommend the Pork Medallions and any fish dish available. The cook is humble but gifted. You can also reserve a room as well. We do so when we have friends or family in. This is the only place we go to for the all year round. We rate this pub very highly for its warm and welcoming atmosphere, the staff are always friendly and understand customer service very well. The food is always excellent and the bar is always well stocked.
