The room was nicely decorated and the landlord was friendly. Breakfast was excellent and served in large portions. Access to town amenities was good too. The only downside was the lack of a lift which means we had to carry to large briefcases up three floors

Volodymyr and his wife made us feel very welcome, like old friends. Breakfast was wonderful. The entire place was spotless. The ambience is almost 'Dowtonesque' without any of the pretentiousness or snobbery. They even have a beautiful Blüthner grand piano in the sitting room. This was our first time staying here but it won't be our last.

The house had a welcoming feel, breakfast was delicious (small bowl of fruit was very generous - no idea what size the large one would be!). And in the lounge there's a beautiful Blüthner grand piano, which for me was the icing on the cake. Or even the cake itself...

Nice comfortable rooms, great breakfast, wonderful hosts. It was unusually hot weather and an optional fan (at extra cost per day) would have been welcome. One of the best B&Bs we have stayed in, thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would happily stay there again on our next trip

Our stay was lovely in this beautiful Victorian house which has been furnished and decorated to suit the property. It was spotlessly clean and the dinning room had fresh flowers on the tables which we liked. The breakfast was amazing with very generous potions from a wide variety for vegetarian options. The owners are extremely pleasant and will definitely return

It is very rare to stay somewhere where you can't think of anything that could have been better. This B & B is one of those rare places. It is perfect from the decor, the cleanliness, the truly amazing breakfast to the small touches. Will definitely stay again.

Lovely and welcoming with wonderful breakfast.

We stayed 1 night in the lovely room for 3 persons. We felt very welcome and the place has a lovely atmosphere. Very good service and you can really feel how they make an extra effort to make you feel comfortable. The breakfast was fresh and so well made with a something for every taste. Definitely a place we will remember and come back to.
