MADAM - My husband and I have been visiting Sidmouth for many years and we were often in The Dove. We found it very friendly. However, when we discovered it was to be a gaming centre we visualised bright lights and loud music.

MADAM - My husband and I have been visiting Sidmouth for many years and we were often in The Dove.

We found it very friendly. However, when we discovered it was to be a gaming centre we visualised bright lights and loud music. How wrong we were. Last week I spent a day in Sidmouth and I wandered along Dove Lane and I was pleasantly surprised.

I happened to walk in and was welcomed by a very pleasant lady, who told me no alcohol, no loud music. It is beautifully laid out. I shall certainly come again.

So, thank you Sidmouth.
