Perfect stay

A great experience. The hostess greeted us outside and made sure we found free parking. The room and en-suite were exceptionally clean! The beds were comfy and nice toiletries were a treat! The hostess ensured we had everything we need and was available throughout our stay. Lots of information provided in the room. The free breakfast was amazing quality! Cooked to perfection! There were different options you could choose from. Perfect stay, would stay again.

Excellent stay in Cordelia house

The B&B was in a beautiful old house. All clean and well looked after. The breakfast was delicious - home made granola and berries followed by freshly cooked full English and homemade marmalade on toast. Hosts were very welcoming. Throughly recommend.

Nice little spot

Located in a quiet side street about a 10 min walk from the edge of town so away from any noise. Accommodation was pleasant and clean. Breakfast was between 8.30 & 9.00 on a pre-order basis (so not a buffet) all of which we liked as it avoided waste.
