About this listen
Meet Britain's worst innkeeper. Single mother and extremely undomestic goddess Lottie has five days to become the ultimate B&B hostess to save her beloved Aunt Kate’s livelihood. When Aunt Kate ends up in the hospital, Lottie and her seven-year-old daughter are called to rural Wales to stand in at the B&B. Without the faintest idea how to run a hotel (she can barely run her own life), Lottie must impress the picky hotel reviewer and his dysfunctional family who are coming to stay over Christmas. Without the rating only he can bestow, Aunt Kate will lose her livelihood. But will Danny, the local taxi driver she hires to help her, really be Santa’s little helper, or is he the Grinch who stole Christmas?

This was hilarious
Faulty Towers in Waleswhat can go wrong. This was so refreshingly tongue in cheek and still enough romance. All the little titbits of humour to lighten the mood of the story which still hit the mark of a real Christmas feeling. It was so easy to picture the house and the scenarios of what was happening and it was not impossible to smile and laugh listening to it.

Lighthearted story, narration irritating.
A fun story, would make a great film, however the narrator using various voices didn’t work. Shame as it would be more enjoyable if she just read the story without the voices as the content is enjoyable.

lovely story
all though a very short story it was very enjoyable to listen to, it was also very funny , Gamma Dawson , the narrate-er always tells a good story , I thought the cat peeing in the guests shoes was so funny . I have a cat myself and if they don't like someone they will go out off their way to be mischievous I will listen to this one again .

Narration poor
The accent for Danny was laughable. The character was Welsh but his accent was terrible and kept changing from a poor Welsh accent to an unrecognisable one.
