Gerry was the perfect host, friendly and made sure everything was perfect for us. The house was lovely, the bedroom and bed very comfortable and we had access to the kitchen for teas and coffees at any time, as well as a lovely morning breakfast.

A lovely stay. Thank you.

Gerry our extremely amenable and courteous host ensured our brief stay ( two nights ) was absolutely zero stress. Gerry went above and beyond even providing soft/medium/hard pillows for preference. The garden is a tranquil space well tended flowers and bushes and the commanding giant willow. The property boasts all the mod cons, highly recomended.

We arrived at the Willow and Gerry was there to greet us with a big welcoming smile. The room was beautifully decorated and and we had the top bathroom all to ourselves. Breakfast was scrumptious and we even had music especially chosen for us which added to the ambience. Town was a ten minute walk which was great for us as we were going to the Abbey for a concert. We'd definitely stay at the Willow again. You couldn't get a more friendly, helping, welcoming host.

Not what we expected but very pleasant surprise.

We booked to stay here in a rush and just 48hrs before we arrived. We chose “The Willow” based upon its value for money and wonderful rating and as it was only showing one room left, we booked quickly. We didn’t really delve any deeper than that. It was only when the welcoming email arrived did we realise it was actually a B&B and only had one room left as it only had one room. Undeterred we continued. When we arrived we genuinely thought we’d got the wrong address and had to drive up a hill to get phone service to check. We hadn’t. The “Willow” is a private home on a nice housing estate. We returned to be greeted by Gerry who showed us around his home and was a wonderful host for the duration of the stay. We were given free run of the house and garden and our room was comfy and nicely decorated. The en-suite bathroom was actually the main bathroom, which although you do have sole use of, is across a shared landing. Breakfast was great and as mentioned Gerry was too and Crumble “The dog” liked his biscuits. So overall it was very different to what we are used to but we had a lovely stay.
