We recently stayed at Compton House, Newark and it was wonderful. Lisa made us very welcome when we arrived and we were given a wonderful room with four poster bed. We were given a key to the front door so we could come and go as we pleased. The breakfast in the morning was lovely with many home made things... More

Well it would have been if only my own home was as stunning as this! Simply lovely in every way and for someone who spends their life on the road this was simply a very welcoming, homely and peaceful stay - I don't usually write reviews as I'm away too much but Lisa and Compton House left its mark that...

We stayed just one night but were made as welcome and comfortable as old friends. The room was every bit as good as the best hotels and the breakfast lived up to its award winning reputation. Lisa was at pains to make our stay as pleasant and enjoyable as she could. Nothing was too much trouble. We would certainly recommend!

All the complimentary reviews that I had read were right! Lisa was a wonderful hostess, very friendly and welcoming. The house itself was elegant and comfortable, and I loved all the antiques and furnishings.

In Newark for a business meeting, the company I was visiting booked me in to this B&B so I had no idea where I was staying until I arrived. Was charmed by the place from the kerbside.

This was our second visit to Compton House. The second visit was just as nice as the first time - warm welcome, lovely room, great breakfast and wonderful hosts. Greeted like old friends with a welcome glass of wine after a day Christmas shopping - perfect timing. Everything is perfect and they most definitely deserve their place as number 1... More
