Lovely family friendly B and B

Lyndsey and Mark were brilliant for our stay, so friendly and gave tips on things to do in the area . We also had a dog with us and they were very accommodating. Lovely B and B, close to amenities but far enough away for some peace and quiet. Food is also lovely, we had breakfast and tea.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Shoulder of Mutton. The owners couldn't have been more friendly and helpful. We had breakfast every day - fabulous! The room was very clean, albeit quite small. If you have mobility issues, the stairs may be a problem. Otherwise a beautiful, characterful place.
