What travelers say
A snapshot of guest ratings and stories behind the stay.
“Very comfortable 3 night stay in this Victorian villa. Hosts attentive and have thought of anything that any guest would need, nothing too much bother. Bed softer than we are used to but slept like babes ! Delicous breakfasts with lots of choice. Arrival cake and copious snacks we could have at anytime. Cosy fire on request. Will return.”
“Excellent place to stop and relax when you're in or around the area. John is a great host, who makes you feel welcome and at home. They have the best B+B I've ever visited. You can guarantee privacy and relaxation in the ground floor of their family home. The breakfast alone is enough to visit for. Thanks again.”
“What a wonderful stay. Lovely owners, service was impeccable, rooms gorgeous, spotlessly clean. So much food available, freshly cooked and delicious! Also so inclusive and understanding of our two additional needs kids. Thanks, we can't wait to return.”
“This B&B was absolutely perfect. The hosts were warm and welcoming, making us feel right at home. The room was clean, cozy, and had everything we needed. Breakfast was fresh, delicious, and clearly made with care. The whole place had a relaxed, peaceful vibe that made it easy to unwind. It was one of those stays that just felt special from start to finish. We didn’t want to leave and are already thinking about coming back. If you’re looking for a quiet, comfortable getaway with genuine hospitality, this place is a winner.”
