Sadly, we have had to say goodbye this month to Freda, one of our long-standing Reception team.  Freda has been with The Idle Rocks for several years, and was loved by staff and guests alike for her constant smile and sense of humour, as well as her infectious laugh!  She even had a number of select guests who would deal with her and only her whenever they made reservations – even I wasn’t good enough!

She has left us to pursue a new venture, and will be running a village shop with her husband near St Austell.  I’m sure the local residents there will love her just as much as we did. 

We will miss her but we are very proud of her for taking on this new challenge.  We sent her off with some farewell gifts – a Dartington Crystal vase, a big bouquet of flowers and of course every girls favourite – a big box of choccies!  She still lives near the hotel so we are looking forward to hearing how it’s going in the New Year.
