Brilliant service Stephanie
You found us our fabulous holiday to Sri Lanka. With direct flights.
The first holiday Stephanie found was an instant hit. The hotel is fabulous and a very short distance from the airport.
Well done.
Now we can celebrate Mums 80th birthday in style!
Great communication from Hays Hedge End, as needed to all be processed over the phone.
