Brilliant Beaches

I'll have you know that I've
Been known to pen an ode
So it now seems appropriate
To write re your abode

The welcome that you gave us
Is quite the best we've had
And the special little touches
Make "Beaches" an excellent pad

The rooms are really something
The decor quite amazing
The beds and views are wonderful
And the baths are made for lazing!

The breakfasts are quite legendary
With Prosecco to start the day!!
It's like nothing we are used to
But it makes us want to stay

You've made us feel quite special
And that's what it's all about
Your recipe for pampering
Is fantastic, without a doubt!

So thank you, Rosie and Laura
Our wonderful hosts in Deal
Can't wait till we come again
'Cos when it comes to McCoys, this is real!

Thank you so much for a wonderful stay.
