Very enjoyable stay, Melvyn made...

Liked: Melvyn was super friendly and made me feel very welcome and relaxed. The facilities were excellent and super clean and yeah, I had a really nice relaxed atmosphere.
Disliked: The room was a little bit warm, but it did have a big Velux window and a ceiling fan to help cool you down and it was a very hot day so it’s not surprising.

Excellent comfortable and different B&B

Liked: It’s a bit out of the ordinary B&B property. It’s based on the site of a Morgan car dealership. But you don’t need to be a car enthusiast to enjoy staying here. The room was very comfortable, it was very hot when we stayed but a ceiling fan plus a desk fan cooled things down. The bed was comfortable and room very clean, with everything we needed The Pit Stop breakfast bar was exceptional set up like an American style diner. You could help yourself to whatever food a drink you needed without having to observe set times.
Disliked: Only niggle was the shower took a bit of regulating and couldn’t get it to stay on the handheld shower attachment rather that the overhead shower head

Nice bedroom in unusual building...

Liked: The bedroom was large and well equipped in a modern building.
Disliked: It’s not a typical hotel with a reception desk and staff. We let ourselves into the building and the bedroom. Everything is of a high standard but I didn’t realise we had to make our own breakfast in the breakfast room. The small notes in the bedroom with warning signs on were odd.
