We are delighted to announce the arrival of Danish chef Dennis Riistofte at Home Farm Hotel from 22nd October 2008. Dennis is a talented and enthusiastic chef who will bring new dimensions to our kitchen. An award-winning chef in his own right, Dennis will join Head Chef Lee Villiers to make one of the most talented duos in the South West!
The following exchange of letters has been widely rumoured as being a true story. Sadly, it is a work of fiction, but no less enjoyable for it! If you have ever experienced the frustration of communicating with hotel staff, this one is for you! Enjoy!
Dear Maid,
Please do not leave any more of those little bars of soap in my bathroom since I have brought my own bath-sized Imperial Leather.
Please remove the six unopened little bars from the shelf under the medicine chest and another three in the shower soap dish. They are in my way.
Thank you,
S. Berman

Dear Room 635,
I am not your regular maid. She will be back tomorrow, Thursday, from her day off.
I took the 3 hotel soaps out of the shower soap dish as you requested. The 6 bars on your shelf I took out of your way and put on top of your Kleenex dispenser in case you should change your mind. This leaves only the 3 bars I left today which my instructions from the management are to leave 3 soaps daily.
I hope this is satisfactory.
Kathy,
Relief Maid

August is a very busy month in the East Devon area, Summer is here (although someone should tell the weather that!) and holiday-makers are flooding into the South West. For the next few weeks the beaches and tourist attractions will be packed, but never fear, there are plenty of activities lined up that will keep you entertained, rain or shine (but most likely rain).
From the 1st of August till the 8th, Sidmouth will be hosting the Sidmouth Folk Festival, an annual event that sees some of the UK’s best folk acts congregate in Devon for a week filled with music, singing, dancing, pub sessions, workshops, concerts, storytelling, cream teas and lying on the beach. For those that have never experienced the folk week before, it can be thought of as a collection of smaller festivals in the same place at the same time, with something for everyone and a very friendly atmosphere. Artists performing during the week include Martin Hayes & Dennis Cahill, Show of Hands, Blowzilla, Dick Gaughan, Karine Polwart and many more. Online ticket sales have finished, but tickets are available from the Ham Box Office near the tourist information centre at the Ham, Sidmouth. If you have any enquiries you can call them on 01395577952, or visit the website, http://www.sidmouthfolkweek.co.uk/.
