Just back from a very pleasant four night break at the Gainsboro. Sue and Stuart are an excellent team and provide a comfortable base, delicious breakfasts (lots of choice) and are very helpful with advice on the local area. I would happily return for another stay and have no hesitation in recommending this b & b to others.
