Review summary

Small ship with very limited activities, definitely not a family friendly boat, the main dining room food was not very good so we were forced to pay an up charge to eat at the steakhouse and Italian restaurants, both which were excellent. overall the cruise was average at best, I would be reluctant to Recommend this ship anyone.

I love the way people say the ship is outdated! when I was 5 I went on the Bridlington Belle for a trip round Flamborough Head. When I was 21, I went on the Bridlington Belle again. when I was 43, again on the same ship, and it's still going strong. I believe it also may have been one of the small ships that rescued so many at Dunkirk. I know it's not the same, but ships live longer than 15 years y'know!

I have enjoyed 2 cruises on brilliance yes it's outdated to other huge ships but we found it easy to get about being disabled
