Fishy Tale!

When it comes to lost property we’ve probably seen it all over the last 25 years. From ill advised bobble hats, gloves, jackets, boots & walking poles to mobile phones, wallets, specs & car keys, you wouldn’t believe the things our customers leave behind.

We recently received a desperate email from one of our self-catering guests trying to locate her sons pet sharks. The poor lad was beside himself as he had inadvertently left them behind in the bath. With the theme from Jaws ringing in their ears our housekeeping staff were pleasantly surprised to find they were only the plastic toy variety. They were quickly dispatched courtesy of the Royal Mail – you should have seen the look we got from the local postmistress when she asked what the contents were.

Happily they are reunited with their grateful owner who kindly sent us a little thank you note…Say Ahhh!
