Great experience booking with Hays in St Thomas, Exeter. Kelly explained everything in detail about the holiday I enquired about, and patiently went through all the details to book it. It was a great price too, I couldn’t believe what we have got for the price

Horrendous experience
Horrendous experience. I had (much) more knowledge about booking a holiday than Esme did. Totally clueless, no confidence, no personality, just a deer in headlights. They could not offer competitive rates at all. I would not book with them if it was free.
