LISTENING PART 1 11
Training You will hear a woman asking for information about accommodation at the Sunnyside Holiday Park. Receptionist: Good morning. Sunnyside Holiday Park, this is Michael
speaking. How can I help you?
Rachel: Oh hello, this is Rachel Becks. Could I just ask a few questions
about your accommodation options, please?
Receptionist: Yes of course. We’ve got a range of options, depending on
what you’re looking for.
Rachel: Well, I’m travelling with my husband and two children, so there
are four of us.
Receptionist: So, we have our motel rooms, they’re double rooms at
$205. They’re very popular.
Rachel: Do they look out over the lake?

Rachel: Oh well that sounds just as good. But we’d need two rooms, so

Receptionist: Yes, we have studios. They’re $155 a night and have a
double bed and a bunkbed.
Rachel: Any cooking facilities?

you want to prepare any snacks.
Rachel: And what about if we wanted to cook our own meals?

everything.
Rachel: And a dishwasher?
Receptionist: Yes, absolutely.
Rachel: Mmm, well that sounds like it might be the one for us. Is bedding
provided?
Receptionist: Yes, all the bedding and electric blankets are provided. But
the towels, guests are required to supply their own.
Rachel: OK, that’s not a problem. And what about other facilities at the
park. Is there a laundry?
Receptionist: Yes, we have a laundry. And there’s also a games room
which is suitable for adults and children.
Rachel: Any outdoor activities for the younger ones?
Receptionist: The trampoline’s being repaired I’m afraid at the moment,
so that’s not available, but there is a playground for children under 12.
Rachel: My kids will l love that. Well look, I’ll just need to discuss it with
my husband and I’ll…
