madonna

madonna

the restaurant at the madonna inn is a most kitsch pink and gold, wonderful room and there's live jazz and old-style dancing

dinner at the madonna inn restaurant should be avoided: horrible, over-priced food with a VERY strange policy on only being allowed to sit down if you ALL order main courses

i didnt book sons into the most twee, feminine twin room i could find

but i DID book me and Lucy into 'yahoo': the room with a high bed built into a horse carriage replete with cart wheels and bull horns to grab onto above the bed, and a rock-walled waterfall shower

'you're SO wrong dad!' said the boys when they came to see our room

so wrong, i knew i was right

took Lucy a moment to acclimatise her surroundings: i reckon you either love the madonna inn or you hate it

i LOVE it

fortunately boys discovered the super sweet swimming pool and hot tub with incredible views

(i never saw it before)

so we started out day there

guess who loves the hot tub?
