My partner, myself and my mother stayed at The Denes for a weekend break. We have stayed there before (although it was the first time for my mother). As usual the rooms were absolutely spotless and of a very high standard, the bed was comfy and you can guarantee if you have left any toiletries behind - they will be... more

Me and my sister stayed at The Denes for one night only (unfortunately). We would have loved to stay longer because there was really nothing to complain about: the location was good (5mins walk to town centre), the room was nice, the bed was comfy and there were even a whole range of bathroom articles available. As we're not big... more

We found that this couple are not exactly child-friendly. Although the website boasts about it's books etc when my son dared to look at them he was warned off very abruptly by the landlady - he hadn't even touched a book, mind you, only looked and when my wife commented about her manner from thereon the atmosphere was as cold... more

Our response to this comment has to be generic as we have ascertained from our records that only two families stayed multiple nights with us in July 2006; one from France and the other from Kenya. Perhaps this comment came from another month or another year even! We have had many excellent families stay with us over the years with...

A most enjoyable experience. Both Sally and John made us all very welcome and ensured we lacked for nothing. All the meals were of the highest standard. in particular, with the evening meals available, there was no need to go eating in any of the local restaurants, The quality of the rooms was also of the highest standard, with plenty... more

This was an ideal base for our new house hunting. We received much useful information here besides finding a comfortable friendly welcome. It combines hospitality with a home from home atmosphere and for once, we slept well. We do so miss our superking memory foam at home! more

I booked this room through the local tourist board for myself and my family. The price seemed high (£145 for 2 nights) but I needed something in the town as I was doing a local half marathon and not many places would take families. The B&B seemed clean and tidy which was a good sign and the room was fine.... more

My stay at the Denes was a strange one. Initially I found the owners a bit quirky, then rude. I overheard them in their kitchen using offensive language in reference to the guests. The real shock came when I came back after a walk to find the zippers on my luggage disturbed. I set up my video camera in the... more

I have checked our records and there is no one of that description stayed with us in October 2003.
