Testimonial, Christmas 2023

”From the moment that we stepped through the door, we experienced a friendly, well-prepared and courteous team who were professional but not stuffy, and for whom nothing was too much trouble.

Joseph the Chef, and his team were outstanding. The food was excellent throughout and was served at a pace that worked for us – with lots of in-between requests for the youngsters. The foodies amongst us felt that the dinner on Christmas Eve was worth a particular mention but so too was the fabulous Christmas lunch that we all enjoyed.

The team at No 38 have a very special culture and knack for making guests feel at home.
Thank you for a fantastic Christmas away from home.”
