Guest comments
"A welcoming and relaxing place from which to explore this fascinating area. It was great to try all the local food and wine and stay somewhere of such character. The owner, Mimmo, is as characterful as the property and made us feel so at home." Richard and Vanessa Hawes, Sussex
"The ambience and charm of this bed & breakfast was like a breathe of fresh air, a delightful place to stay and I will definitely return!" Jennie Bagwell, Suffolk
"We had a thoroughly enjoyable holiday in this quirky yet homely b&b. The rooms were clean and comfortable and with character. The surrounding countryside was beautiful and there was so much to see - even for our two teenage
daughters! But a car is a must. The owner speaks very good English which helped a lot and gave us advice on places to visit as well as being very hospitable. I can't wait for our next visit!" Ben and Karen Legg, Berkshire
