It
seems now were at an age where everyone is getting married and after
all the hectic wedding planning I guess the one thing every couple is
probably looking forward to is going off to holiday...but what if you're
not? What if you're tremendously afraid of heights, dont like much of
sight seeing or cant handle different types of food BUT you're still
looking for a getaway? I recently discovered the obvious and wish the
idea came to me when I got married! Husband and I had gone to Spain and
as nice as it was there was very little halal food available so I didn't
like it too much. However recently we had the most amazing time
together in the Crowne Plaza Resort
Colchester - Five Lakes. And yes halal food was
available!
We had a nice long drive there. Checked in into our room
changed and used the gym, then we went swimming. To dry your clothes in
the bathroom they have a metal rail which you can choose to heat up also
available is sauna, steam room and jacuzzi you can book yourself
facials, manicures and massages. We went for a walk outside, the view is
just so refreshing; land pretty much everywhere you just know you're
away from your usual busy life. They have a buggy that can also be hired
to cruise in the area although user will need a full driving licence.
After our dinner we both went to find the pool table and ended up
playing table tennis for a while. They also have a golf court and
squash. We spent the night watching a nice comedy they have movies you
can rent on their LG tv. But I must warn you be prepared and take snacks
and lots of fizzy drink with you. We went at 3pm and lunch wasnt part
of the deal so I had taken subway with me to eat after arrival. You may
want to take some kind of
packed lunch with you or maybe even consider
food for a picnic outside? If youre dressing up for dinner they already
provide an iron, an iron board and hairdryer but you'll have to take your
own straightener if you need. Come bed time they have the cosiest
pillows and duvet alongside a comfy mattress. And in the morning they
serve a lovely breakfast with a really wide range variety. For me it was
the perfect get away I was a DIY bride where I made my own invitations
and registry outfit as well taking care of all organisation all I really
needed was to get some well deserved rest. And this is definitely the
place that wouldve catered to my needs
