About Apple
Apple opened in April 2005,
and has been described as an elegant Victorian house with a
modern touch. It was built in 1898 and retains many period features,
but in the 13 years we've lived here we've tried to improve
and update it. There are original stripped pine floors and doors
throughout, and a garden room has been added to provide a bit
of sunshine. The decor is a mix of Victorian and colourful modern
style. The rooms are of a good size, with high ceilings, and
the emphasis is on cleanliness and comfort.
Apple is a non-smoking house, although guests
are welcome to smoke outside in the garden.
The Bedrooms
We have three guest bedrooms:
- one ensuite double room with private use of
a wet room-style shower space, basin and w.c.
- one double room (one large bed)
- one twin room (2 single beds)
These last 2 rooms share exclusive use of a charming
new bathroom which has stylish, modern fittings and a large,
roomy deluxe power shower.
All the bedrooms are equipped with flat screen
TVs, and a CD/radio mini-system. There is, of course, a well-stocked
hospitality tray in each room, with a wide choice of teas, coffee
and mineral water, plus a few little extras.
Towelling bathrobes and hairdryers are provided
in all the rooms for the use of guests.

Breakfast
Breakfast is served in our sunny garden room,
or, in summer, guests can take breakfast in the garden under our
mistletoe-laden apple-tree. We serve a copious and varied vegetarian
continental breakfast consisting mostly of organic produce, and
have a large range of teas and coffees including organic and fair
trade. |
Parking
We
have our own enclosed off-road parking,
as well as on-street parking in the quiet road at the front of the house.
There is also a cycle lock-up.
Rates
The rate for bed and
breakfast is from £25 per person, based on 2 people sharing .
We do not have any
single rooms. Single occupancy of a twin or double room is available
from £35.
Children
Unfortunately the layout of our house is not suitable
or user-friendly for children. Therefore we regret that we are unable
to take young people below the age of 14 years old.
Overseas Visitors
We welcome visitors from abroad, and are happy to accept
payment in Euros, or Sterling travellers cheques.
Languages spoken include French, German, Spanish and Italian
A warm welcome
awaits
One of the reasons we chose our house was that it has a lovely feel
to it - something many people remark on when they visit. We hope that
these happy vibes, together with its friendly, relaxed atmosphere and
our warm welcome, will help to make your stay extra special.
