We stayed at Culloden House for two nights over the bank holiday weekend. When we arrived, we were warmly greeted by Marcelline and Mark, who pointed out the best places to eat in Westward Ho!

We only stayed one night, but I could not speak more highly of our hosts. I had recently damaged my knee. Bags were carried to our room, later a jug of milk was brought up. I felt like I had rubbed the magic lamp for the genie to appear; our wish was their command.

I stayed at Culloden House for 2 nights and I felt really welcome by the owners. The house itself is impressive, the room I stayed was comfortable and clean and the breakfast superb. What makes it different is how helpful the owners are from the moment you arrive until you go.

Stayed for one night at Culloden House during my SWCP walk. Very friendly welcome by hosts Marcelline and Mark who just took over the guest house. Breakfast excellent, they offer some unusual fruit and nut porridge which I liked. Try to get a room with a view!
