We had a very restful stay at Somersal Bed and Breakfast. The gardens were beautiful to wander around, with farm life nearby. Our room was comfortable and spacious enough for Mum's walker, and had an ensuite. John and Jenny were welcoming and made sure we had everything we needed.

The garden was immaculate, with sheep in the backyard and a mountain in the distance, which made the stay memorable. It’s a quiet escape in a small town, away from the beaten track. John and Jenny were accommodating and made a great breakfast. The rooms were very nice, especially the master bedroom with its generous space and sitting area. No credit card payment.

There was plenty of space in my room, and the property itself is amazing and beautiful. The owners are lovely and very hospitable, and made me a lovely breakfast on both mornings of my visit.

John and Jenny were so welcoming and hospitable. We didn’t have transport, and they even drove us to our next town. I really appreciated their help and would highly recommend this lovely setting.
