A very warm welcome and a lovely place to stay.
We stayed in the yellow bedroom.
It was very very good. The owners are very friendly, with a lot of personal attention.
We would recommend this B&B to everyone. We will return next year.

The door opened and we received a very warm welcome from Corinna and Martin Perry of Bethany House. The decor in each room was very pretty with traditional English designs. As it was tea time when we arrived, shortly after we were shown to our room, a tray with hot tea and biscuits was delivered to our door!

We stayed in the pretty king size bedroom that overlooks the lovely garden. It has a large bathroom that includes both a tub and a nice shower. The sink has a sizeable countertop next to it which is handy to set down your travel toiletries. The room even has a flat screen TV to view from the bed--now this is great!

Breakfast at Bethany House is delicious. There is a very ample menu to choose from and each morning Corinna jots down your order and Martin busily cooks to order. Fresh fruit and--get this--freshly baked croissants are available each morning.

With only three rooms to rent on the second floor of this cute English jewel, the Perrys must be busy all the time.

Having spent just one night at Bethany House, we wished we had been able to stay longer. On arrival, we were warmly greeted by Corrina and Martin, who immediately produced a tray of fresh tea and biscuits (no charge added to the bill) before offering to carry our bag to our room. These days, few so-called five-star hotels offer this service.
And what a friendly, welcoming couple are Corrina and Martin! How many hosts will take the time at breakfast (of more later) to share their recipe for kedgeree with an afficionado?
The Balcony Room is a lovely size and very comfortable. Its bathroom is across a small landing but the provision of soft, fluffy bathrobes avoids any potential embarrasssment if other guests are encountered - but we didn't meet anyone. A peaceful night's rest in this quiet room was very much appreciated, on comfortable beds that were far removed from the hard surfaces many hotels provide (presumably with longevity rather than their guests' comfort in mind.)
Breakfast was an even nicer experience. Fresh fruit salad, newly-baked croissants and Martin's fruit compote (we bought 2 jars to take home) were a delight, as were the full English breakfast and kedgeree. Particularly appreciated were the dishes of home-made jams and fresh butter in a dish, not in plastic packets. Again, 5* hotels take note!
The attention to detail of all aspects of Bethany House was probably what impressed us most, complemented by the warmth of our hosts.
On reflection, we could not fault our stay and look forward to a return visit when we are next in the Tunbridge Wells area - we would travel a long way to repeat this experience.

A very warm welcome and relaxing surroundings await you if you opt to stay at Bethany House. I spent an enjoyable weekend here in August. The house itself is very attractive, full of lovely furniture, paintings, flowers etc. I stayed in the Yellow Room which had a beautiful brass bed and an extremely comfortable mattress. The en-suite bathroom was bright and spacious. Breakfast was delicious and served in a pretty flower filled room over looking the front garden. Martin and Corinna are wonderful hosts and I would definitely recommend a stay in their charming home.
