Lovely Guest House, nice shared snug, light and airy conservatory for breakfast - well maintained garden to sit out in with wide reaching views. Well decorated, comfy beds with creature comforts like bath robes, fully stocked tea n coffee station, water, welcome chocolate, toiletries etc a big plus is that there is a guest fridge which contains fresh milk for use in our drinks, there is UHT in rooms. Mike n Penny welcoming hosts. Informative and there in the background if needed. Breakfast is superb, plenty of choice and of a high quality.

Breakfast was amazing and all the accessories were very good quality. Mick was always willing and helpful and they were both very pleasant people.
The stairs are rather steep, but nothing can be done about that! Unfortunately there were roadworks which meant we had to drive for miles to get to Barnstaple

Location was beautifully quiet outside a noisy city. Penny and Mick were both extremely helpful by email and in person. The cooked breakfast options were terrific.
Although we realised that stairs might be involved, we hadn't anticipated their steepness. Fortunately Mick assisted with carrying our cases out when we left.

Great location. Friendly and helpful hosts. Amazing breakfasts! Warm and welcoming. Well equipped.
Had trouble with TV (not a big deal for us). Would have preferred a stronger shower but understand can be issues with water pressure in rural areas.

The breakfast was home-made and absolutely fabulous with home-made bread and jams. The cooked breakfast was amazing! The beds were extremely comfy and the room itself was beautifully laid out with everything you could have needed. The location is beautiful with stunning countryside nearby. The owner was very friendly, happy to offer advice and had a great sense of humour!
The only thing that I struggled with was the bathroom where the space allocated for the toilet itself was rather tight where, when you sat down, one elbow touched the wall and one touched the shower, I found that not easy to navigate.

A small B&B with dedicated owners who go the extra mile to make your stay as comfortable as possible. A great breakfast complements the charming period property set in a good location with ample parking facilities not too far from Barnstaple.
