We stayed over the May 2013 bank holiday and could not be happier with our weekend away. Janet & Andrew are friendly and welcoming and made us feel at home.

After 100 miles of driving along the coast the first thing you hear is would you like some tea and cake. Whilst we unpacked Janet served tea. The house oozes charm and so do Janet and Andrew. The rooms are big, clean, well equiped and charming and the breakfast is great. I can recommend the Abingdon house to anyone.

Returned for a late break after having a wonderful stay in June. You are greeted very warmly and that nothing is too much trouble. Janet &Andrew go out of their way to make you feel at home. The home cooking is a feature that alone would make you want to return again. Looking forward to next year already.
