Last minute booking for Allerford View (self catering annex) to meet up with friends who were staying B&B in main house. ||Very roomy and comfortable annex. Spotlessly clean. Well stocked kitchen. Large wet room. Huge comfy bed.||Comfortable lounge with plenty of room to relax.||As the weather was dreadful (Storm Bert) we entertained our friends in the annex - plenty of room for 4 in the lounge and kitchen. Separate loo as well as ensuite shower room.||We are familiar with the area (regularly staying at a nearby campsite) and it's great for walking. Bossington Hall is perfectly positioned with a footpath leading up into the woods at the bottom of the driveway. We walked in and out of Porlock to the pub (30 mins each way on quiet lane).||The owners obviously take great pride in the property and gardens. We were delighted at the attention to detail in the property.||10+||A***

An amazing stay in a little piece of heaven! 😀 - I could not fault the wonderful Bossington Hall - an amazing venue where everything was thought through to ensure a 'luxury' stay. The staff, room, facilities and setting are perfect, well done! We will return soon. 😞 - None

Beautifully restored building, lovely room! 😀 - Beautiful building & well furnished rooms; comfortable bed, smart TV, great breakfast (quality & variety). Lovely views. Fridge & welcome basket a lovely touch. 😞 - Our room was at the end of the corridor, which I liked, however the occupied room next door had a private bathroom opposite, so every time they left their room & used it, you could hear the doors banging (they are heavy wooden doors so I don’t think it was on purpose) so not a sound proof room & may not be ideal for light sleepers. There is a floor plan available on their website which may be helpful for future booking. I would’ve liked a nespresso machine or a pod coffee maker in the room, something which seems to be standard in luxury accommodation these days. There is a coffee machine downstairs in the communal lounge (£2 per cup).

Wonderful cosy weekend away in a stunning building with friendly staff 😀 - The property is stunning, nice and secluded with beautiful views. The building has a very homely and cosy feel to it whilst also feeling quite grand. The Kinston room was wonderful, clean and spacious. The cinema room and breakfast hall were also very inviting. 😞 - None

This is without doubt the very best B&B experience we have ever had anywhere.||The location and the views are stunning, the house is beautiful and the attention to every detail is quite superb. ||Breakfast is a gourmets' delight with a wide selection of food available, much of which is locally sourced, and what pleasure it was to experience such great flavours.||Another great feature is the provision of an honesty bar which contains a wide selection of drinks and a variety of cheeses and snacks. ||Guy, the owner, could not have been more hospitable and gave us plenty of information about the local area, including walks and places to eat.||All in all our 4 nights at Bossington went far too quickly and we will certainly arrange a return visit. Hopefully next time there will be no mist and fog to spoil the views!
