First and foremost I have never stayed in a guest house before but by chance I booked the Registry for a family wedding as it was close enough to get a taxi to the venue. I was lucky enough to secure a double room complete with en suite bathroom and a super king sized bed which I have to say was extremely comfortable. Great coffee machine and Netflix supplied via the Tv on the wall as well as a book case with many different choices of books. The furniture was old school classic pieces and not the usual hotel all the same wardrobes and desks. Really cool. On arrival into the large front of house car park surrounded by a mature garden stocked with colorful plants and fresh herbs and the wafting warm smell of lavender.

Two perfect cooked fried eggs 1 sausage and crispy bacon alongside my granary toast. Endless cups of great quality lovely tasting coffee or various choices of tea kept coming.Excellent service. The great point of using a guest house like this is being able to meet other guests and striking up a conversation as you are all on the same table. The owners Bob and Anne chatted with us pointing out the paintings on the wall with the history involved in them, all very interesting. Some Hotels not all but some, you are just a number, you enter are given a key, told the times to dine and are normally seated at a table solo staring off into space.
