Pearling Manor is a dilapidated youth hostel, somewhere in England.

London businessman, Mr Grump, wants to buy the hostel and convert it into a golf club.

In keeping with Mikron's previous productions, staging of the play used a variety of venues from traditional theatres, community centres, outdoor venues and youth hostels.

The Stage said it "achieves an insightful balance between education and entertainment";[4] the British Theatre Guide though it a "jolly, charming and good-hearted show that deserves to find appreciative audiences" although considered there was too much reliance on innuendo at times.

[1] The Yorkshire Post considered there was little plot but that the reviewer came away having "been entertained and learnt a little",[3] while the York Press said the play was "sprightly" and "humorous yet cautionary too".
