Wonderful Location and Cozy Room

kind hostbeautiful locationshort walkcramped bathroom
I found Julian to be a very kind host. The house is lovely and sits in a beautiful location. It is close to the Tor and Chalice Well Gardens. The location is a short walk into town too.
The bathroom was cramped. The beds reminded me of they had a cheap springy basic mattress. I think the photos didn't show how basic the setup was.
Rooms

The double room had wooden floorboards and a lovely rug. Beds are supremely comfortable. There is plenty of storage space and a seating area to enjoy the peace.
Location
10/10
The hotel is a short walk to a footpath to the Tor paths. A slightly longer walk takes you into town itself. I found coffee stops and unusual shops very close.
Dining
9/10
Breakfast offered freedom to choose from a selection. I saw cereals, breads, dairy products, teas, coffees, and juices. Everything was beautifully presented and spotlessly clean.

Such a serene house close to the Tor!

fantastic hostgreat locationcomfy bedsfresh bread
I was greeted by Julian, a fantastic host who even gave a tour up the Tor. The location is great for exploring, with a real experience offered! The house had everything I needed for a pleasant stay. comfy beds. I especially loved that fresh bread was made for breakfast each day. It was quite yummy!
The requirement to remove shoes upon entering the hotel felt slightly inconvenient on the first day.
Location

The hotel benefits from a very short walk to a footpath that leads to the Tor paths. It's also an easy walk through the fairy woods and across the Avalon Orchard to reach the path up to the Tor.

tiny bathroombasic breakfast
I found a couple of things pretty annoying. First, the bathroom was TINY. I practically had to stand in the hallway to dry myself after a shower. Second, the breakfast setup felt pretty basic. It was self-service, fine, but the options were just okay. I expected more, given the price I paid.
