I was a little wary when booking about being under the one roof in separate self contained accommodations in relation to privacy, but the owner Tom welcomed us, made sure we were comfortable and left us to it, he is quite the character and knows a lot about the local area. This was probably one of the most welcoming properties we went to, with all the coffee supplies, soaps, shampoos and extras that really is old school hospitality where we really did feel like welcomed quests.

Grants Farm

our 2 nights accommodation was well accommodated by Tom Grants B&B with private 2 bedroom unit and spectacular views of the farm, hills and pine trees. Our boys enjoyed the toys and books. Very peaceful and quiet area, with a fireplace, heaters, warm cosy beds. Tom made sure we always came back to a warm house! Definitely returning here!
