We has a perfect stay. There were lots of small details that made it lovely, and there was plenty of space for a b&b room. Claire and Eugene were so lovely and friendly. We will definitely stay again.

Everything. Room was perfect, bed was so comfortable and we even had homemade muffins ready in the room when we arrived!! The breakfast was cooked to PERFECTION and there was much more choice than expected.
All fantastic. I personally would have loved separate shampoo/conditioner rather than all in one body/hair wash but it didn't matter to me as everything else was so fantastic.

The B&B is in a wonderful, quiet location but still central. It’s very comfortable and welcoming and has everything you need. We stayed in one of the larger double rooms and loved it so much. Everything was clean, the bed was very comfortable and the hosts have definitely put thought into kitting the rooms out, and they are also two of the loveliest people ever. They’re very welcoming and helpful and are very knowledgeable about the area. The breakfasts are 10/10 and they offer such a great selection. Absolutely would 100% stay here again.
There’s is absolutely nothing that we didn’t love about it.

The fridge in the room. Hooks behind the door to hang coats. Minimal cushions. These are on top of an already lovely large well equipped room.

Good central location. Room clean and bed comfortable. netflix in room a bonus. quiet. Nice breakfast with plenty of options. Friendly and accommodating helpful hosts
Parking ok. we had to park in council car park a walk from property and carry luggage. hosts reimbursed car park fee. only minor issue. wouldnt put us off staying again.
breakfast on pre order. again this is ok and we do understand why its done. but in ideal world we would prefer to select on the day.
room though nicely done was very small and in the eaves. my husband managed to only bang his head the once! we have stayed in many b&bs in last couple of years and in general had better rooms for same price.

Lovely breakfast and Clare made a beautiful cake which she shared with her guests. Both Clare and Eugene were extremely friendly and were keen to make suggestions of things to do and places to see to make our stay as good as possible.

Everything. Not even joking. You can't pick a fault with anything about this place. I could list things like the mattress, pillows are comfy..sofa in the room mini fridge . Welcoming chocolates and some type of home made cake in the room. bathroom facilities are so nice.
Everything looks and feels new. Everything is clean like properly clean.
Breakfast menu 👍

Breakfast was generous and perfectly cooked. Beautifully decorated, clean and comfortable throughout the b&b. Excellent, friendly service.
Kept getting caught out by the taps being plumbed the wrong way around, but not a problem. The ensuite was still lovely and the shower was great!

The friendly service from warm hosts Eugene and Clare.
Decor, made to order breakfast .
Helpful, open, attentive service that put us at ease. Nothing was too much trouble. Wonderful restful break. Highly recommended any of the four rooms for that personal care and service. Better than 5 star hotels I've stayed in around Europe.
Great facilities. hot water at your fingertips. Coffee and tea machine in room, ample space for clothes, excellent advice and suggestions for walks, eating out and comfortable furnishings.
weather. But they still made me smile.

Lovely b n b really clean and comfortable. The owners went out of there way to make us feel welcome and nothing was a trouble. Even when we turned up looking like drowned rats, they gave us a place to dry our coats and boots.
There were really nice touches like cake in the room on arrival and the coffee machine we loved.
The breakfast was lovely and for me being able to choose items I wanted was great and meant less waste.
Would definitely recommend
The only slight issue is the parking. However they will refund off your bill any parking charges. You can park most places for 1 hour with a parking disc. But it's free outside 6pm to 10pm which meant we just parked up after our trips out at 5 and didn't think about it until we were on our way the next day.

The hosts were very welcoming and friendly.
Amazing breakfast - they provided a delicious vegan breakfast with sausages, hash browns etc and even provided me with my own vegan butter and milk. I am sure they would be equally helpful with any other dietary requests.
Nothing. The room was quite small but I think the decent price takes that into account.
