Very clean, good-sized room with a comfy bed and the walk-in shower I wanted. You let yourself in using a key pad and find your room key on the reception desk. There are phone numbers to ring if you have problems, but otherwise you only see the staff at breakfast, which is very good indeed. Good value. Reasonably quiet. Recommended.

Nice but traffic noise excessive
Lovely room but unfortunately Glade End is on the corner of two roads and traffic noise very intrusive. Couldnt leave window open as traffic noise upsetting.

Dear John, Thank you for staying with us recently and for taking the time to write. I am sorry that the road noise troubled you. Due to our close proximity to the town this is something that we cant control unfortunately, despite having triple glazing and providing fans in the rooms for the heat. Thank you Lily

Each guest room was named for a poet or writer of note. I stayed in the J.T.Eliot room which was at the back of the property and away from the street. The room was large with a queen size bed and an en suite. There was a book of poems left to read about the poet's history and some of his poems. A really terrific idea. The outside of the property was very pleasant with a sitting area just to the side of the car park.

A bit disappointed, but Breakfast excellent.
I have to say; for the money it cost, I expected more. The room was very small and the carpet was pretty dirty as, when I walked from the bathroom to the bedroom with damp feet after a shower, I found long back hairs on my feet and a lot more were embedded in the carpet at the foot end of the bed. I found the room very stuffy and even with all windows open I didn't sleep very well. With that in mind I would suggest some form of air-con would probably make the place a lot more comfortable for guests during the Summer months. Other than that, the only time I saw staff was the following morning as there seems to be no late afternoon/evening presence there, but the staff I did see were friendly, helpful and courteous, so were excellent and a credit to the Guest House. Best thing about the stay was the breakfast; tasty, really well cooked and presented. Would I stay again: probably, only as it's a short walk into the High Street and all the excellent restaurants and bars available there.

Dear Steve, Thank you for choosing to stay with us on Saturday. I am very sorry to read that your carpet in your room was dirty. We pride ourselves on having an extremely clean establishment, as you will see from previous posts, so i was disappointed to read this. We have fans that we provide in the rooms and usually put these in towards mid June when it starts to get warmer. We will have to reconsider our timings with the weather! I am pleased to read you found our team friendly and enjoyed our Chef cooked breakfast. Thank you once again for staying with us and for your feedback. Kind regards Lily

Everything was good. Lovely room. Smooth check in and out. Strange bathroom sink taps that have no grip! It’s a small thing, which became irritating, as you couldn’t turn them off with wet hands!! Suggest the owners look at this! Cooked breakfast was on the small side. One poached egg and 3 small mushrooms could easily have been increased. Otherwise happy to recommend

This is a very convenient and pleasant place to stay. The self check-in worked well and the room was comfortable and clean, if a little small. We were meeting friends at The Hand & Flowers and found the walk to it quite easy. We met the staff next morning at breakfast (which was really good quality) and they were very friendly and helpful; I am sure that had there been any problems at any time they would have responded quickly even though they were not always on site. There is off road parking too.

Good for our last night before flying out of Londo
This is a guest house, so you may just have a code to get in with no one there. It is also hard to find from the address as it sits back from the road and the addresses are not well marked. That said, the breakfast was good and the staff were very friendly and helpful. The rooms were very nice and comfortable. Picked this to stay reasonably close to Heathrow Airport on our last night. Worked well.

Spacious room in a small and cosy house.
We got to the hotel late and the check-in procedure is signing in and picking up an envelope with the key to the room. Smooth. The bed was very comfortable and everything was very clean. The only complaint would be the shower that has a very unconventional way of working the shower. Altogether it was very pleasant and only 5 minutes walk from the town centre.

Lovely
A one night stay as I was working in the area. The self-service entry and check in system had concerned me slightly initially, however I found that this was smoothly handled and there are a number of different places where contact details are displayed if you need to contact the person in charge. I had a small double room with en suite shower room, lovely - clean and comfortable. It did overlook the main road outside, but I wasn't disturbed by that even with the window open all night. Breakfast the following morning was a lovely choice of cooked meal or cereals, toast, fruit. I would have liked a room with a desk, the lack of this item was really my only gripe with the place.
