I am travelling on my own with work & my employer ALWAYS books a double room with an en suite. When I arrived Celia took me to a room with single beds?? I said no, I have an executive room with an en suite. She said the only room left was this one with single beds or one that wasnt en suite but the bathroom was along the hallway. I was not happy but thought its now going into evening - but really annoyed as I had put an extra 40 minutes commute both ways to stay here. I reluctantly agreed to this. Then Celia said she would leave my new room key on the table downstairs. I then went to this SHARED BATHROOM to freshen up then was going out for a walk. Went downstairs to get key and Celia said she had left them in my room??? What??? When?? Oh when I was in this shared bathroom she went into my room? That is an absolute breach of my privacy and I was so offended and annoyed. WHO DOES THAT??? Later on I was getting more annoyed as when I went to this shared bathroom I had to lock my bedroom door - creep along - and was even worse when I had to go for a shower as I had to take everything. I left early next morning without evening saying goodbye - contacted Hotel.com who were great and refunded me my money in full. Never will I recommend this place now. Will never return. There was no apology last night either - a female travelling on her own & I get a shared bathroom? ##### Margaret Stayed 1 night in Aug 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller May 20, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The best bed and breakfast I’ve stayed in modern clean and welcoming 😍 ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in May 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Andrew, Burton on Trent Mar 1, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Warm House with a Warm Welcome Warm house and a warmer welcome.

Unfortunately for me I found my pillows very hard with no give, and no choice to change so hardly slept but I believe from talking with the hosts that this was a oversight and a choice of pillows should have been provided ##### Alison Stayed 1 night in Aug 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Margaret Aug 10, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Amazing luxurious accommodation! I stay regularly in hotels/Guest houses due to my work. I have had so many nightmares with bad accommodation I come to expect it nowadays - however this incredible place has got to be the best place I’ve ever stayed in when travelling with work. The place is spotless - welcoming - incredibly modern and everything has been done to a VERY high standard. Its so so comfortable and it was honestly the best nights sleep I have had in weeks. The bed - the pillows - luxury and so comfortable. Your feet just sink into the thick carpet as well. The shower is so powerful and amazing! Thick lovely towels and plenty of toiletries also. Another great touch is the china mugs and the small fridge with bottles of water. The owners are so welcoming and can’t do enough to make you feel welcome. Breakfast is cooked to order and served on china plates complete with silver tea pot - they have thought of absolutely everything! This property is so luxurious - I will definitely return not just for business but for pleasure too as the area is lovely and relaxing. ##### Margaret Stayed 1 night in Aug 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Jul 6, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Saubere Zimmer, sehr freundliche Gastgeber Nah am Strand, nah an einem guten Restaurant und einer Bar.
