Breakfast from 7am to 9am. Out of respect to other guests staying here we do not accept bookings of more than 2 rooms ,
The house dates back to the late 1800 s with a lot of the original houses still standing in the area some as with the Richmond have undergone some extensive renovation partly due to a serious fire several years ago and of late some serious renovating to make improvements, there is a council by law to say that all new dwellings and renovations have to be in keeping with the original look so if you don't appreciate these older houses well ''Being a bed and breakfast this means that we provide the breakfast , you do not provide your own , Breakfast is Continental ie'' cereals including several glutton free plus good wholemeal toast juice tea and coffee out of respect to other guests we will not accept bookings of more that 2 rooms or 4 guests
