The Huntingdon B&B

The Huntingdon B&B

10/10 Excellent
"This is an excellent b&b,we stayed in the annex(Huntington suite).A very well decorated and furnished annex.It was very quiet and the room was very well heated if you wanted it and had a fan. The bed was very comfortable and clean.The bathroom was great with low level walk in shower. Please be careful when showering as water does get onto the floor past the screen and the floor can be slippery.A good tv and comfortable couch and chair. A very spacious room and I highly recommend this place. Breakfast is served in the main house and is very worthwhile.All the staff are very friendly and helpful.We will be back."

"The room was lovely but the sink in the en-suite was tiny & hard to get a wash or clean your teeth in without getting water everywhere. The front of the sink unit was already water damaged. The shower was good & easy to use. The lady who greeted us was very helpful & friendly especially as we forgot to take our key out with us & had to ask her to let us in to our room. Nothing seemed like too much trouble for her. There was a good choice for breakfast which was cooked to order"
