First of all my friend and I had the great fortune to be offered the top floor self-contained suite as the B&B rooms were already taken when we booked, here we found two spacious bedrooms, one illuminated with morning light, the other with late afternoon and evening glow. Both were lovely rooms, which along with the comfort of the generous... More

What a great place for a visit to this beautiful region! Our room was wonderful, with a very comfortable bed, excellent facilities throughout, and an excellent breakfast to send us off at the start of each day!

My girlfriend and I stayed at The Old House for two nights in April.

The beds were exceptionally comfortable - important to me as I have a bad back - and both the rooms were very attractive with everything provided that you could possibly want.

Our stay at The Old House started with a wow factor as we drove into the courtyard and were met with a view of the magnificent gardens in bright sunshine. We were warmly welcomed by Ann and later by her husband Manor. We stayed in Sarah's room which was completely delightful. It is beautifully decorated. My husband had the most... More
