We stayed in the chicken run self catering cottage at Lower Thornton Farm. Everything about this accommodation was excellent and the hosts were very hospitable. The continental breakfast provided included free range eggs, a number of different cereals, orange and apple jugs, plenty of coffee, tea etc and toast and jams. There is a new toaster, microwave, oven and cooktop, everything required to successfully cook your food. All rooms are very spark us, the LCD TV was good, and the lounge...

Southern Cross Guest House

10/10 Excellent

Very old thatched roof cottage so you do not expect modern up to date facilities. A quaint quirky place to stay which we chose for that reason and were not disappointed. Nice breakfast and the guys were happy to cook whatever we wanted. Room was serviced every day with coffee etc topped up and new biscuits every day. My bed was made up when I had left too many creases in it! Friendly helpful staff who were happy to chat as were the other guests at breakfast time.

Bentley Lodge Guest House

10/10 Excellent

Absolutely amazing b&b and host! The room was immaculate and a lot of attention to detail was made. From the homemade fudge and rocky road, the soaps and shampoos, to the choccies and sweets on the pillow on arrival - we were made to feel incredibly special from the moment we stepped inside - actually, Debbie greeted us by our car; so even before stepping inside! The breakfasts were top tier and thought it was awesome that I asked for a glass of water on the first breakfast and then the 2nd...
