Well done on your thorough review. It sounds like many parts of it were not so impeccable! Hope you still had a great time together and enjoyed the parts that were good. Take care and have e Happy New Year!
Thanks so much and you are right, it was a bit of a let down to be honest, maybe after our previous excellent visit, we were looking forward to it too much. Thanks very much for watching and taking the time to leave a comment and a very Happy New Year to you both, cheers Alan
0:25 Beautiful Christmas decor ...... 3:10 That look's beautiful ..... 3:40 I could fall asleep right now ....... 5:20 WOW !!! ...... 7:00 I like the looks of that ..... 13:20 I guess that the place look's better than how the food taste's .......... 17:00 HAPPY NEW YEAR !!!!!
Hi Alan it's good that you were honest. It looks like a really nice hotel, your room was lovely with the mince pies touch but it's a shame you had a bad experience with a few things and it wasn't too warm. You had a nice view of the church though and a big bed and bath. Whoh £6 just for pigs and blankets is a lot I agree and we don't like noisy speakers either and noisy people are worse hehe ! Ooo the food especially the roast potatoes and knickerbocker glory, sounded bad as did the breakfast and it's a shame that you had to try putting dressing gowns on as your room was too cold. Such a shame about all of the negatives because the place itself looked so beautiful. Thanks for being honest with the good and bad things 👍 Happy New Year ! ~ Anna
Yes, we had such a great time the previous time we came for an afternoon lunch, we booked this night away on the spot but it was such a let down, especially as we had been so looking forward to it. You cannot tell on the video but when we were down for dinner it was absolutely rammed packed, so I guess come back again but on a quiet mid week afternoon. Thanks very much for watching and a Happy New year to you both, cheers Alan
Absolutely Chris and after we had such a brilliant time on our previous visit, our expectations were too high. Thanks very much for watching and a very Happy New Year to you too, cheers Alan
Hi Alan great review on your great channel. What a disappointment for you and the Mrs that the food wasn't good. Luckily you did like some of it! Anyway l hope you had a good Christmas and happy new year!
Thanks Barbara 👍 and it may be were were looking forward to it too much, so it disappointed us in the end. We had a great Christmas and I hope you did too. Thanks very much for watching and a Happy New Year to you, cheers Alan
Hello Alan and another comprehensive review and the impeccable pig looks a nice enough place but a shame things didn’t live up to expectations, I thought the format you did today was really good and can see you put a lot of effort into the Vlogg , Anyway here’s wishing you and Mrs Metalman a peaceful and Happy 2025 . Catch you in the next one Kev
Glad you enjoyed it Kev and yes, we were let down a bit, turned out not to be as good as we were expecting, even the food was a let down too but to be fair it was rammed to the rafters when we went down for food. Thanks very much for watching and a very Happy New Year to you, cheers Alan
Thanks so much Sandra, really nice of you and I really would have liked to have done a more of a positive video, as that is the way I am. Thanks very much for watching and a Happy New Year to you, cheers Alan
Well too bad you two didn’t have a great experience but being together is always the best part in my opinion. Hopefully the next place will be better. Thanks for bringing us along and stay safe my friend. 👍👍
You sure got that right Don and at the end of the day, that is one part we always enjoy. Thanks very much for watching and a Happy New Year to you both, cheers Alan
Good video Alan. Seems like a bit of an off night at the Impeccable Pig. Such a shame... Well, I'll wish you a Happy New Year. All the best for for 2025 👍😃
Agree marra and we were so looking forward to it as well, hope hopefully it was just an off night. Appreciate you watching and a Very Happy New Year to you too, cheers Alan
Not a good sign when the place is empty. What a disappointment 😞 The food didn't look too appetising. Great honest review, Alan. All the very best to you and Mrs Metalman for 2025.🎉🥂🍾
Thanks very much for watching and a Happy New year to you too and you cannot see it on the video but it was packed when we first went in and the same when we came back down for dinner, only quiet on the morning for breakfast, cheers Alan
What a shame it was all show and not backed up with decent service. It looks like they have spent a good bit of money on the decor in the apartments but not a decent heating system. Shame about dinner being not as good as your last visit, too. Breakfast looked decent, I like my bacon cremated like that, so I'd have been happy. A very honest review, Alan. You've got to speak as you find these places.
Very true marra and to be fair on them I know some like their back hard and crispy, so maybe we should have asked for ours nice and soft. The real shame is, we enjoyed out previous visit so much, we were expecting the overnight would be just as good. Thanks very much for watching a very Happy New Year to you, cheers Alan
Hi Alan, Just discovered your channel. Great vlog this. Must visit Tan Hill Inn - down to your review of it so credit's due. One quick question? What is the really good background music to this vlog. What is it called and artist/performer? Happy New Year to you and yours.
Thanks Lee, appreciate your kind words and yes we both enjoyed the Tan Hill, especially if you do not mind being isolated, as you really feel that up there but that was a massive attraction for me. The music for this video is in the video description and it a copywrite free track that I got off the TH-cam music library. Thanks very much for watching and taking the time to leave a comment, real good of you and a very Happy New Year to you, cheers Alan
Belated Merry Xmas and A Happy New Year, Mr. and Mrs. Metalman. I thought the hotel room was stylish and spacious. How about a desk for your filming equipment to work at? Did you find enough plug-in on the wall to charge them all? Hmm...I felt sorry for Mrs. .Metalman experiencing some negative incidents such as dishes and heater system. I appreciate your honest judgement about the accommodation in details that are very helpful for future potential visitors and also the hotel side to make considerations for its future. Well done, Alan. haha you have a beautiful house. Apologies for my absence due to having my elder in-laws over for holidays. They are in 80s and I try to keep eyes on 24/7. Enjoy spending time with them. I am trying to catching up. Sorry my original comment disappeared...drop this off with my sub
No problem at all Christmas is always a very busy time and it sure was for us this year as well, so I know how tough it can be. Thanks very much for watching and a Happy New Year to you both, cheers Alan
great video. we've been twice, unfortunately, after the last time for mothers day we had a table booked for 1400 had to wait till 1530 ,not even an apology
That's a shame and being busy is never an excuse, especially as all mothers are equally important. I was thinking of booking my 70th Birthday party next year for all the family but a bit undecided now. Thanks very much for watching and taking the time to leave a comment and a very Happy New Year to you, cheers Alan
The room looks nice, decent quality decor and the free mince pies are a nice touch. Like the sound of the Church Bells. 26C? Yikes, id melt at that heat. Unusual looking sink and speckle effect on the mirror. £6 for pigs and blankets? That’s pricey. The surroundings for the meal sound shocking, what a shame. Leathery potato’s? No Thankyou. Not sure how much confidence I’d have in the GF dessert. Shame about the bacon too. The room looked nice but the price of the food is very off putting for us. 👍
Yes the overall price was far too much (imo) and not worth it for what we paid but a lesson learned there I suppose. To be fair to them when we came down for dinner it was packed to the rafters but still we were disappointed with the food and lack of heat too. Thanks very much for watching and a very Happy New Year to you both, cheers Alan
We went for a 30 th birthday party table for 12 ,couldn't get a drink ,totally ignored ,we brought a cake they forgot to bring it out ,when they did they never brought a knife ,never again 😮
Thanks for that, as I was thinking of having my 70th there next year but will maybe have to think again. Good of you to watch and leave a comment, cheers Alan
First off, the room itself was beautifully designed and spacious. Unfortunately, you guys were cold in there. It's the worst when food is overpriced and not very good. Places can change, unfortunately, over time for the worst. That happened to so many restaurants here in Vegas after Covid. They just weren't the same anymore.
yep, no matter how nice the room was in the middle of winter it needs to be rally warm but not the case unfortunately. Thanks very much for watching and a Happy New Year to you, cheers Alan
Great review, I’ve been looking at staying here for the past few years but I’ve still never been as the crazy high prices always put me off and after seeing your vid I don’t think it’s worth the price, there is so many more luxury hotels around the area that are cheaper and better. I stayed at Seaham Hall last week for less money and that is a 5 star hotel with amazing facilities including spa, watch my vid to see for yourself I would highly recommend staying there. Happy new year 🙌👍
Thanks very much for the tip, I have heard of it before but never actually been in, so have added your video to my watchlist. Thanks very much for watching and taking the time to leave a comment, real good of you and a Very Happy New Year to you, cheers Alan
Sometimes we make mistakes in our judgment. The place looks very nice and cozy, but your experience says otherwise. Some things are not quite as they should be, but I hope you still enjoyed your Christmas.
So true and we did, thank you, Christmas is a time we both always enjoy and thankfully we had another very enjoyable one this year as well. Thanks very much for watching and a Happy New Year to you, cheers Alan
Funny enough I was talking to a bloke in there having a pint and he said it was the 'in place' to go. We would not go back for an overnight stay nut fair play to them when we were there of an afternoon meal about 2 months ago it was very nice. Thanks very much for watching and talking the time to leave a comment, cheers Alan
We were looking forward to this so much, maybe too much as we left disappointed but fair play to them, it was rammed to the rafters when we got there. Next time we go back for food it will be on a nice, quiet mid week afternoon. Thanks very much for watching and a Happy New Year to you, cheers Alan
HAPPY NEW YEAR TO EVERYONE! Peace, Happiness and Good Health to all :o)
Masterfully crafted episode Alan, everything looks so organized and simply comfortable!
Thanks very much good of you to stop by, cheers Alan
Alan absolutely wonderful video my dear friend thank you for sharing with us.

i suppose it was the unimpeccable pig on that visit 🥴 it does look good though.
