Pretty solid B&B. Friendly and welcoming host. Clean and comfortable. Lovely location, just a shame it was in the middle of a storm so couldn’t appreciate the area.
Was upgraded to a slightly bigger room. Only real downsides for me is there was no desk or chair to work at and was asked to check out half an hour earlier than the booking stated.
I would return, but would also appreciate a veggie/vegan breakfast being offered.

Stayed here a few times in the past as its location is fab for exploring the area, Donnington Park circuit or as a stopover. The new owners have made a great deal of improvements and the rooms are lovely , comfortable clean and the bathrooms fantastic, highly recommended. Great breakfast and welcoming hosts .
