Disgraceful

Sadly booked this site specifically to use the bar/restaurant, The Wanderer. My wife & I took my sister in law for a celebration birthday weekend. We have been before & we enjoyed the on site eating & drinking so we thought it would be ideal for us. The site is a long way from Knaresborough & the only reason we came was because it had its own bar/restaurant. My sister in law is not good at walking so we felt it would be ideal. We never contemplated & were not informed that the Wanderer would be closed at the height of summer & over a weekend. When I enquired at the office, I was told the staff had gone on holiday. Absolutely disgusted that in the height of summer, the staff just close the place & go on holiday for 2 weeks. Ridiculous. Spoilt our whole weekend & upset my wife & sadly her sister. Ruined her birthday. The Club needs to look at its holiday policy.

The  staff  at the moment consist of 1 student who had holidays booked  b4 he was employed  and if you had taken the time to read the  before you travel  information you would have been aware of the opening / closed times 

Holiday police !!!!!  get real  

you clearly have no idea of what is happening in the hospitality industry !

Maybe if you spoke to the site team and given them the time to explain the current situation you review would not have been so biased   and unfair !

Another unjustified complainer , the blame lies firmly at your door for checking the "before you travel info "

get over yourself
