Friendly welcome and shown to a very pleasant room and all facilities explained by Janet. Lovely comfortable bed with clean crisp cotton sheets and duvet. Nice to find a room safe which is not often provided in B&B's. Good wholesome freshly cooked full English breakfast. One of the best and friendly B&B's I have stayed in More
