Stayed for one night in the Garden Room. I don't normally like B&B-type accomodation, but I felt really comfortable in the room (it's more of a mini-apartment with a lounge, bedroom, bathroom etc). …

My second visit was in May 2017. No wonder I returned. The room was very comfortable, the front facing room was double glazed so no noise from traffic, but in the evening and night time there is so little traffic, it is peacefully quiet. …

Stayed here for a weekend. We were welcomed by friendly people, shown to our room and told to 'Just make yourselves at home'. Then asked at what time we would like breakfast. …

Stayed here for a night whilst transiting through the area having booked the accommodation via an on-line site. The owner was a delightful lady who was extremely helpful yet not "in your face".  …

This was a late booking but one we were delighted to have secured. The B & B was very clean, the bed was large and extremely comfortable and as the title states, the breakfast was excellent. The hostess gave us a warm welcome and parking outside the property is not a problem and it is free.

We spent 3 nights at this lovely B&B in the self contained flat at the bottom of the garden. It was clean and very comfortable with everything we needed for our stay. Margaret truly deserves her breakfast award, the best bacon I have ever eaten in a B&B or a hotel.
