We enjoyed the warmth and hospitality of Nikki and Jim. They live on property and are accessible to assist with anything we needed. The bedroom was roomy and comfortable. The bathroom was spacious and had a wonderful shower with soft towels. The surrounding area to The School House is picturesque and calming. We would definitely return to Woolavington.

A comfortable night-stop

An excellent bed-and-breakfast stop. Space may be a little restricted, particularly in the en-suite toilet, but the furnishings and decore are of the highest standard. Breakfast is personally served and excellent. As an overnight stop en route to Devon or Cornwall we would recommend the School House to anyone.

Little gem

A wonderfully quaint setting in a really quiet village, yet only minute’s from the M5, made for an excellent night’s rest mid-road trip. Hosts were wonderfully accommodating and the breakfast was exceptional. Spotless throughout, spacious bathroom and particularly comfortable bed.

What a fabulous find this was. Nicky and Jim literally came to our rescue when our original booking at a different hotel went pear shaped. The School House has lots of character, is spotlessly clean and has friendly and helpful hosts. Delicious breakfast too. 10/10 from us :)

Home from home

I stayed here in September in the gold room and green room. Both pleasant and comfortable. Very quiet and peaceful. The owners are lovely and breakfast is delicious. Hot English only served from 08.00, but they will make you a bacon butty or scrambled egg before this time if you ask nicely. Local amenities are a coop and pubs, both not too far away, but not really walkable. Glad I stayed here and would recommend to anyone

Historical Building with modern touches - amazing!

I wanted to stay in the Old School House as it is quite likely that some of my ancestors were taught there. But even if that is not true we both enjoyed our stay. Very welcoming hosts - good breakfasts - clean and comfy room so everything was spot-on ....... no need for any discipline !
