“Stay Here...It's Fantastic”

Reviewed 12 May 2013

Beautiful area, fantastic accommodation wonderful hosts. Need I say more, just stay there and tell the premier inn to get lost, you won't regret it. The view at the back is amazing. The local eateries are nice and Pete and Sue who own the place could not be more hospitable.

“A 5 star B and B run by charming people!”

So pleased to have stayed at Hunters Cottage. Everything from the location to the decor to the personal service was a joy to behold. Having arrived later than expected, we received a warm welcome and a very kind offer of hot drinks which, to our delight, were accompanied by warm homemade cakes! The wet room is wonderful and its given... More

Thank you both for writing such a complimentary review, especially as you were only with us for a few hours. Good luck with your wet room, especially with the call of the golf course! Regards, Pete More

“A little peice of heaven”

Reviewed 12 May 2013 via mobile

The best place we have ever stayed. Peter made us feel immediately welcome. The breakfast was amazing and we were full for hours. The bed and breakfast itself was stunning, beautifully decorated, every little detail perfect. Looking forward to coming back in September

Hi Lindsey and thank you for your lovely review. It was enjoyable having you both stay here - and of course, to have a carpenter admire the woodwork is the greatest compliment a man could give me! Hope everything is going okay with your daughter. Hope we see you in September., My very best wishes, Pete More

“Hunter's Cottage”

Reviewed 3 May 2013

A wonderful (but too short) stay at Hunter's Cottage. Attention to detail great, from the yummy breakfast in the morning to the thoughtful hot water bottle for night. A perfect retreat from a busy life. Modern, warm and welcoming. Cannot praise enough. Best bit, high thread sheets and honey yoghurt on the b'fast tray. Worst bit, going home. Lots to... More

Thanks to both of you for a wonderful review. Sue and I are so happy that you enjoyed yourselves because we were aware you were looking for a well-deserved break. I wish you every success and enjoyment in the work you are doing. Best wishes, Pete More

Reviewed 29 April 2013

The owner greeted me politely and immediately made me feel at home. The service from then on was friendly and of a very high standard. (nothing appeared to be too much trouble) The room and bathroom were decorated and fitted out to the standard you would expect in a 4/5 star hotel. The breakfast was absolutely splendid, with lots of... More

Hello John... we really appreciate your review and the time you've taken, particularly as you were just passing through, so to speak! Thanks also for your suggestion about the wet room. Good luck with the golfing! Best wishes, Pete & Sue More

We've stayed at a number of five star hotels yet not experienced the high level of consideration, thoughtfulness and kindness as shown at this B&B. The refreshments and snacks provided in the room and on trays brought to our room were far superior to the norm. Sue's homemade cakes are gorgeous and breakfast was lovely too. Ample quality toiletries were... More
