Meredith House

Love this place... the guys running it are fabulous. The rooms are very comfortable. And the breakfast- well I've stayed in many places over time and their breakfast is the best I've ever had in my life. Baked ricotta. Porridge pudding. Chia. Baked fruit. And the main poached eggs and other cooked to order selections are to die for. Can't wait to go back.

Returned for a second visit as had such an amazing time 6 years ago and wanted to show my Mum over from the UK how amazing it is. Neil and Noël have gone above and beyond to equip the room with everything you could possibly need. They provide complimentary port and chocolate chip cookies, hot chocolate, as well as tea and coffee. Breakfast is outstanding- a wonderful spread of fruits poached in spirits, homemade baked porridge and freshly baked bread. Then a full English breakfast along with a wide selection of fruit juices and jams. The finale is croissants and baked donuts plus freshly baked muffins which they give you to take on your journey! This is the best b&b ever and I can’t recommend them highly enough.

Neal is the host with the most, he gave us a true northern (English) welcoming and was so accommodating, together with his Australian partner. From the welcome muffins on arrival to the tips for the local area and our travel plans, it felt like he was welcoming us into his home. Then for the breakfast, wow, what can I say. Probably the best breakfast I’ve had anywhere in any hotel and I travel a lot. The huge selection of fresh fruit, yogurt, fruit juices and wonderfully cooked breakfast, even inviting us to take the individually freshly made pastries with us for later. You couldn’t ask for more. What made this even more special was all the little things that Neal went out his way for - bringing HP sauce to the table for the cooked breakfast (because nothing else compares) and bringing us a bag of Yorkshire tea to take on the rest of our travels. What a gent. Do not think twice about booking this place, nothing will compare.
