We're on the telly.......

 Can't believe how fast these last few months have flown by. I was hoping to put a blog up every month after my last one back in November, but with everything that as been going on it's been impossible to find the time. Anyway here we are in March the sun as been shinning for a whole week, YAY. Really hope this is a sign of what's to come, a great summer is what I think everyone needs right now. So who's seen us on the channel five adverts? It's getting closer to the episode airing & here at the Welcome Traveller we are very excited & also a little nervous. The time we spent with the film crew was a great experience & one that will never be forgotten they are fantastic people to work with & great fun. Its only been a couple of weeks since our final filming & we mis them already. Alex Polizzi as given us tremendous support & we thank her deeply for all that she as made happen. We havn't yet been on the telly but we've had a write up in the local papers and this alone as shown to strike an interest in the people of Pembrokeshire. Let me tell you about the last few months at the Welcome Traveller Inn with Hotel Inspector.
 
Kirsty & Geoff completed the make over of our room 3 just in time for the return of Alex, was pleased with the outcome & gave her approval so that was re-assuring.  Alex then threw us a massive challenge. At 3oclock one afternoon she told us get ready because tonight our restaurant was going to be filled with hungry customers wanting to be dined. I'll save the good parts for you to watch when it comes on the telly. The night proved to be a long one & showed us many thing's to learn from. Alex got to see how we worked & what needed to change in order for us to become more successful so with this in mind she suggested we went to a service boot camp tp help learn on service. So surprise surprise that's what happened. One minite we we're sat in the bar having a cup of tea and then the next we we're all off to London. As much as I want to tell you all about our fantastic experience which led us spending the day working in the best hotel in the UK I don't want to spoil the viewing for you on TV so you'll just have to tune into it when it airs.
 
We held a launch party on St.davids day which went amazingly. With support from a wide range of local business, from Celtic Quest Coasteering, The Dunes riding Center, YFC, Walkalong way, Pembrokeshire footsteps, Pembrokeshire Anglers Association, Moor farm fishery, Battlefield Live, Clerken Hill Adventure farmSolva Boat Trips, BP karting ltd, & lots more. The day was a massive success & thank you for that atteneded.
 
  So with the refurbishment of our dinning room, lounge & reception completed we're ready and waiting for the summer rush. We have a lot planed for the next few months so keep your eye out on our events page for more details.
 
We are now also taking bookings for  b&b on line now, just go to our booking page. If you would like to book a table for our restaurant then please contact us on 01437 891398

Watched the show on C5 last night - i hope things have been going well for you since the show was made. Just one small thing i want to mention, i downloaded the menu document here but it wont display properly on Notepad. Maybe if u made it a .pdf file i will be easier for most people read it and print it out properly. Website in general could do with a bit of sprucing up it is a bit sparse at the moment - so maybe when u have time eh? Good luck.

We were on holiday when the show went out and only caught up with the programme tonight. It's our favourite episode so far as you all came across as genuine people who really care and want to make a success of your business. We wish you the very best of luck!
