What an incredible evening it was, filled with laughter, delicious food, and delightful surprises! Our recent Fawlty Towers Adaptation Evening at Allely Estate proved to be an event to remember, leaving our guests with huge smiles, jaw lock, fun memories, and stories to share.
A Night to Remember
From the moment guests arrived, they were immersed in the whimsical world of Fawlty Towers. The venue was adorned with quirky decorations and our actors transported everyone straight into the iconic British sitcom. The evening was alive with the antics of Basil, Sybil, and the ever-befuddled Manuel and the very serious and creative Polly. Their hilarious interactions had everyone in stitches, with Sybil’s sharp wit and Basil’s frantic attempts to keep everything under control providing endless entertainment.
Table 6 had a particularly unique experience with Manuel, who ‘nodded off’ for 45 minutes undetected under their table—an unexpected but hilarious highlight of the night. The laughter echoed through the venue as Sybil took guests on a conga line that wound its way through the dining room of the Villa and outside into the courtyard, bringing everyone together in a spontaneous dance of joy.
Our impromptu guest singers showcased their talents serenading with Sweet Caroline and YMCA, adding to the joyous atmosphere.
Polly’s incredible artistic drawings were another highlight, with some pre-drawn well before our guests arrived, capturing the essence of the characters and the evening. Just as well Polly’s ‘mouse’ was a furry soft toy and Basil’s wound bandage was only a ‘head warmer’ and not an injury!
The delightful chaos continued with various surprises throughout the night, ensuring that no one knew what to expect next. Every corner of the room buzzed with excitement and laughter, making it a truly unforgettable evening.

“We attended a theme night on Friday 5th as a belated anniversary dinner. We were totally floored by the beautiful ambiance of the venue, the most wonderful and attentive staff who looked after the extra needs of these geriatrics. The food was superb and their personal gift to us for our occasion completely threw me. We have had a couple of rough years, but this was one very special occasion made so by the host and staff of this venue. We have dined in venues around the world, and this one is right up there with the best. Thank you does not cut it, really appreciated the evening.”
