Thank you letters from parents
Hi Matt and team, a very quick email to thank you for taking such excellent care of our three kids this week. They are all buzzing, exhilarated, exhausted, filthy and very very happy. This from one of my kids should serve as feedback for now. “I’m sad because for the first time in my life I felt like I could be exactly who I am and I don’t think I’ll ever feel like that again.” That’s pretty extraordinary.
“I really feel that MoTB is good value in every sense and worth every penny. My child loves it and cherishes their time with you each year.”
“Thank you all for giving Tabby the most brilliant week – she had an amazing time, met some great kids by the sound of it. I was delighted by the amount of mud that she brought home…the perfect antidote to her usual busy life. Many thanks again, we’ll definitely be booking for next year.”
“The best money a parent can spend …. Thank you all….. “
