Fun, stylish, creative and incredibly endearing; that’s not us just talking about our apartments but also about the wonderful Stella Parton. Upon meeting Stella, she was everything you would expect and more; kind, authentic, honest and humble – with sincere warmth that radiated even the coldest of days here in Plymouth.

Making time for everyone – from loyal fans to bar staff and intrigued passersby – our time spent getting to know Stella Parton whilst she stayed at Strathmore House Apartments was time that we are extremely grateful to have had.

Welcoming every guest to Plymouth for their first visit to our ocean city is exciting, but when you hear that they loved it so much they will return, it’s always the very best of outcomes.

Stella called Strathmore House Apartments home, whilst staying on one of our four bedroom apartments for three nights this weekend, on a discovery of our historic city after powering through the elements to make it to Plymouth from London through the snow.

When you have the pleasure of hearing someone talk about a place you are proud to call home, a person who has travelled the world and seen some beautiful sights, it makes you realise how very lucky you are to have so much wonder on your doorstep.

In Plymouth, we never take for granted the fine plethora of restaurants, history, culture and beauty; but to hear someone talk so lovingly about their own experience here, and to even be thinking of writing a son about our city, is truly heartening.

Not only did we have the opportunity to welcome Stella to Strathmore House Apartments, we also got to show off one of our sister companies; Kuku Sushi Bar & Robata, where Stella took a turn behind the Sushi Bar before enjoying some Kuku delights and a cocktail!

Not only is Stella beautiful and talented, she is also now a fan of not only Strathmore House Apartments, but Plymouth too, and we truly can’t wait to welcome her back again very soon.

A four bedroom duplex apartment which sleeps eight adults comfortably, for three nights this weekend was just £27.50 per adult, per night. 

 

Part Of The Holiday Fun – Is The Holiday Food..!

There is not a month that goes by where there is not a new, tantalising dish on one of the many amazing restaurants menus here in Plymouth. The choice is bewildering at times, but in a very good way!

What a conundrum to have; where to go, what to choose and how many new discoveries can we unearth in one holiday?  Although Strathmore House Apartments have the finest of kitchens, giving you that perfect home from home experience, we also know it’s nice to have someone else do the dishes and prepare you a tasty treat.

With so many new restaurants to discover on your holiday doorstep; full of dishes to demolish, drinks to imbibe and food-themed events to attend throughout the year;  food is rarely off our minds when we are on our holidays!

So, with limited time, often the hardest part about eating out in Plymouth is figuring out where to go first!

Strathmore House Apartments are part of a family group of businesses that have been serving up treats for food lovers in Plymouth for over 60 years.  Within the group there are three amazing and unique restaurants, all within a short stroll of Strathmore House Apartments and all offering sensational food with a warm, professional, family welcome – but with three very different options.

Kuku Sushi Bar & Robata is the newest restaurant to join the group; set within a beautiful Grade II listed building just moments away from Strathmore House, it crosses boundaries by pairing traditional Japanese cuisine with chic surroundings and new flavours and textures.  Pulling its personality from a scattered set of influences; Kuku Sushi Bar & Robata offers the perfect escape from home cooking and tantalises ever sense with its mouth-watering dishes, fine interiors and sensational staff.
