Yet more fantastic guidance from Vanda on bringing together a potentially brilliant holiday. A change of venue was no problem, the same care and attention to detail was given ensuring we both thought we were now going to the correct holiday destination
Once again fantastic Vanda, thank you so much from us both

Last minute trip to Rhodes

Booked a last minute trip to Rhodes. Lucy gave useful advice about the local area, and what to see and do to make the most of my 4 days there. All of my tickets were printed there and then and they did my check in for me so I could go straight through security as I only had hand luggage. This was my second booking at Barnard Castle and it won’t be my last, all of the staff are always friendly, knowledgeable and helpful.

Excellent customer service

Never having been on a cruise before it was so helpful
to have a kind and knowledgeable member of staff (Vanda) talk us through and answer all the questions we needed to know regarding a Fred Olsen round UK cruise, booking the trip was so easy.
