I didn't opt for breakfast.It was spacious clean and quiet.Their organisation was great-no fuss and everything was all as expected.Car parking was great-loads of space and in close proximity.I liked that I could access the rooms location without any added complication-I returned back and forth at different times from the event i'd travelled to attend.They know what they're doing.
To be honest nothing stood out as lacking at the very reasonable advance price I paid.

We liked the size of the rooms, the price, and the bathroom was large. Everything was cleaned well, and fresh towels were always available. The proximity to the two pubs nearby was also good.
We never saw any staff. The check in process was a bit strange. Renovations were being done so there was no common room or breakfast place.

It is a lovely quiet place, although works are going on in there it is still a very relaxed environment. Love the fact there was a mini fridge in the room, I can't stand long life milk! 😂 The room was rather warm but the windows open properly and there is a fan provided.
If I had to choose one thing it would be that the TV was tiny! Oh and the bed is very low.

Generally a peaceful setting. Room was reasonable and it was good to have a little fridge.
Unfortunately my daughter's room was near a road that was having emergency roadworks all night, although there was nothing the venue could do about that. It was strange that we didn't see another person during our stay.

Check-in was really easy as we had very good instructions in advance of our stay. The staff were very friendly and helpful. I had a full English breakfast, which was very well cooked. There was a lot of variety for anyone who wanted something else or had dietary requirements. The location was perfect for being nearby to my sister and was easy to find.
I was a little confused about where the entrance to the bed and breakfast was as it wasn't too obvious at first.

The Breakfast was great, full English, property was clean and tidy.
The TV was too small to view and high on the wall. There was no way of relaxing other than sitting on bed. No little table and chairs so it was hard passing any length of time before going out or coming back early. Also when you arrive there is no indication of where to enter property as it says Tri beauty on door where you enter. We looked around and knocked on another door before we found how to get in. Also owner had only emailed details of property and code to get in on the morning we had already left for Mather House Presuming it went to my phone, but emails go to my PC i don't have email on my phone. Should be sent at least the day before.

It's perfect if you just need a simple bed for the night. It's basic but clean and comfortable and was quiet when I was there - the floorboards make a noise as people walk about. The room was a good size, the bed was comfortable but shower was elderly although worked perfectly.

A beautiful place, calm, relaxing and very pretty. Very close to the bus. Nice parking. Nearby pub for evening meals. The room was comfortable. Very clean and well equipped. Breakfast was copious and very good. The staff were very friendly and pleasant. If I'm ever in the area again, I'll definitely come back to Mather House!

Everything was wonderful. Perfect location for our needs. Clean, comfortable and the fully English breakfast was so good. Lovely staff. Wouldn’t consider ever staying anywhere else. Grounds also very well cared for.
Floor boards were quite squeaky, which I realize can’t be helped, so when my husband was up and I wanted to sleep it didn’t happen. Would have preferred breakfast go till 9:00 as we arrived late and wanted to rest in a bit more.

The room and laundry was clean and it was light and airy. Sunday breakfast cooked by Joy was very good. The hot water was nice and hot.
My room was located near the beauty treatment rooms which were playing relaxing music rather loudly. The bed springs were a bit lumpy.
