From our guide to British Bed & Breakfast
Alone in its 22 acres of orchard, valley and wooded hills, this beautiful farmhouse is wrapped in peace. Inside, 17th-century stone walls, low beams and a warm Gallic flair – most special at night...
Gill and Robert are so good at growing vegetables (organically) they supply the local restaurants; all is cut and delivered within three hours. They're pretty good at looking after you too...
The pace of change is exhilarating - or nerve-wracking. Gone is the grim, old-fashioned B&B landlady. Gone are the stained linoleum and chipped formica. Familiar now are the linen sheets and polished wooden floors, the croissants and decent coffee of the modern B&B. Even the dangling signs of a motoring organisation may beckon you into places of real delight. So how on earth does one choose between them all? That is the question that keeps us on our toes. It is our obsession, our reason for being here. The choice is so bewildering that our role is, to those who trust us, more critical than ever.
