This was most unexpected. My travel company booked me into a Quaker run B&B. The meals were arranged for certain times, which may not suit everyone. There is a time of silence before meals. Which I quite liked. The rooms are clean and comfortable and simple. The WI-FI was only working in a small area near the reception desk. There... More

Lovely location. Comfortable bed. Food average for the price. A little disappointed that they do not seem to be used to catering for different food 'disciplines'. Had to ask again and again for non cows milk or vegan food and being a Quaker establishment that was suprising.

I arrived after dinner, late in the evening with no idea what to expect. I found that anything was possible! They were fine with the substitution (in fact, glad someone... More

Small window has a lovely view towards the hills. No phone, radio or TV in rooms. Wifi doesn’t work in the annex building or lounge but does in the main part... More

Friends who had stayed here previously had told us stories of unfriendly service and "adequate" rooms...... Our reception was warm and friendly although we had to wait... More

This hotel is set in beautiful grounds surrounded by beautiful views. My stay was for four days (a watercolour painting break). The hotel was perfect. The staff were very helpful and friendly, the accommodation was a bit dated but lovely and clean and more than adequate. I stayed in a separate building to the hotel and the views from my... More

I really enjoyed my stay at Glenthorne. It is a Quaker guest house which is open to all. The welcome is warm and the staff helpful. Tea, coffee and herbal fruit tea is freely available throughout the day, in the main house as well as in your rooms. Each afternnoon there is afternoon tea with homemade baking for all guests...
