Our B&B is far more than just a place to stay; it’s a sanctuary where we redefine luxury, crafting a genuine 5-star experience.  From the gleaming silver cutlery, crystal glasses, and fine bone china that grace our dining tables, to the finest Egyptian cotton bed linens that cocoon you in comfort and the promise of a restful night’s sleep under feather duvets, every detail has been carefully considered.  Our aim is to create an ambiance that’s not only stylish, but also incredibly indulgent.

As you step into our thoughtfully decorated rooms filled with quintessential English charm, you’ll find beautiful antique furnishings that evoke a sense of history and sophistication.  These rooms set the stage for an unforgettable stay, where the past meets the present in a harmonious blend of luxury and tradition.
