Sharon was a great host and even upgraded my room for me as it was going spare! Room was clean and a good size. And the B&B is part of their bakery so that's a winning combo in my eyes!

Lovely B&B with bakery

We had a wonderful stay at the Bear Bread Bakery B&B! Breakfast in the bakery was the perfect way to start our day. Everything was delicious, especially the freshly baked croissant right out of the oven. I highly recommend staying here. The pub next door is an excellent choice for dinner, and it's literally just a few steps away.

Looking forward to my next booking!

First time booking and I am really looking forward to book again. The room is really comfortable and I was welcomed with a great cinnamon bun. Breakfast is great, with wonderful pastry. The atmosphere is friendly and the hosts are really lovely and make you feel at home immediately. I will book again for sure!

Would go back again!

Absolutely lovely little B&B. We stayed in the green room and the space was clear and plentiful. The food was amazing and we were greeted with fresh cinnamon buns on the day that we arrived. Breakfast was super tasty and everyone was so friendly. The only downside would be if you're a light sleeper you will hear other people in the morning but it wasn't a big deal for us, we're planning to head back for another long weekend in August so would HIGHLY recommend.

The room was spacious and charming with a beautiful onsuite. The window overlooked the tiny centre of the historic village. I loved that by stark contrast the Waitrose truck and double decker bus were able to navigate through the small roads. Breakfast was served in the bakery which had a friendly community feel as locals popped in and out. The lovely Sharon and Colin were perfect hosts.
