We were warmly greeted and taken on a quick tour of this beautiful home. The decor is amazing, large rooms with large en-suite and everything you needed. Off street parking and a great breakfast and service. We will easily be returning again.

Wonderfully exuberant, creative, original place: furnishing, decoration, lighting, music, everything. Outstanding breakfast. Our host Nick is a remarkable talent with a fascinating life story. I suppose the quirkiness of the place won't be for everyone, but we loved it.

Lovely room and excellent breakfast very clean and lovely hosts

A very kind, considerate and conscientious host. A comfortable room with clean bedding and lovely en-suite. Fabulous breakfast. Good natured dogs.

All good, not applicable.

Philip the owner is a great guy! He is extremely kind and thinks about small details like asking what would you want for breakfast. Daphne and Millie are awesome!

Nick was a great host, very accommodating and breakfast was spot on.

Nick is a wonderful host and went out of his way to make sure I was comfortable and had everything I needed.

A hearty breakfast. The bed was comfortable. The house was warm in sub zero temperatures. The hosts were attentive and keen to please without being intrusive.

Lovely room, breakfast and hosts. Location is very handy for the town too

How water on the sink taps wasn't great and I thought there was a problem with the shower, but it was just that it took a while to get hot.

The hosts were fantastic and accommodating, the house is a spectacular museum piece. Off street parking with a secure gate is nice. Comfy beds.

The drama start on the arrival 3pm. The gate locked by padlock (first impression) . For few minutes nobody answer the phone ,finally gate open 15.15. Walking towards the building on pavement on green slippery slime . Finally in the room on the 1st floor - very strong heavy smell of many odour eliminator/fragrance diffuser etc. Small running fan heather on the floor . I ask to remove all of the diffusers. 4pm i go out (i cannot lock the room because there was no key )and come back 6.30pm where on the ground floor corridor i meet big dog which friendly jump on me and scratch painfully my leg . After short conversation with very nice old lady about the breakfast i went to my room . The room was frozen (external temp 9C) . I was keeping jacket on me waiting when the electrical small heather will warm the room . The floor in bathroom ice cold -the main fuse switch for the UFH switched Off that the thermostat was not working. No radiator in the bathroom but anyway the radiators in the room where cold all night. After while the room become warmer that was chance to go to bed . I did not take shower this evening in frozen bathroom . The room was full of dust but not on the surfaces ,the dust everywhere -on the heavy curtains , on the bed frame ,on the bed fabric canopy, on the 6 table lap in the room - everywhere where it is not easy to clean. I couldn't stand the smell in the room and wake up 4am ,5am I decide to spend time in McDonald than be longer in the smelly room. 5.30am i left the room(wooring how I will pass the 2 big dogs ) I stuck front of the main gate because the padlock was back again and no other way out of the property . Back to the door which you cannot open from outside and banging on the door . Finally 5.40am out of the property blowing my nose, still feeling the stench from the room mixing with the fresh morning air. Should I pay for this night ?

Absolutely fabulous house, decoration & contents, very eclectic. Excellent communication & Phillip was the perfect host. Breakfast was delicious 5*

We are visiting family from the US. Excellent hosts. Great interior design. Excellent home cooked to order english breakfast. Eclectic victorian house with iron gates and operating fountain.

Loved the welcome, attention to detail and quirkiness!

Beautifully decorated clean Victorian property full of style and interesting features. Nick was lovely and cooked us a tasty breakfast, went out of his way to make sure it was perfect. Even got me gluten free food. Nick on mentioning we had wine for our anniversary and needed to chill it, promptly arrived with silver tray, bucket of ice and glasses. Spot on service. Our room was kitted out with everything we needed including a large fridge. See photos. Lovely on-suite with walk in shower. Millie the beautiful friendly dog was around to give you attention if you want it, very sweet.

The weather could have been better but obviously Nick could not fix that although I feel if he could he would.

Everything! Highly recommend! Beautifully decorated, you feel like you have stepped back in time. Beautiful room. Can't say enough good about this B&B.

Loved everything! Hope to return one day!

Absolutely everything. Superb decor!! Breakfast was fab. Phil was a great host plus milly the dog.

The only thing was the room I stayed in didn't have a key to lock when going out.

Lovely people. Beautiful quirky house. Exceedingly welcoming.

We very much liked the tasteful interior design of the b&b, the most comfortable pillows of the holiday, the friendly staff (and dogs of course), and the delicious breakfasts.

Experience of grandeur of the property was the reason for me and my sister to stay Lovely house Wonderful breakfast Definitely value for money

Everything was lovely

Friendly and helpful hosts. Very welcoming and accommodating: to give us the downstairs bedroom for our ‘we need a little space dogs’ and staying up late to welcome our daughter arriving late. Breakfast was a treat. Nick made super breakfasts, and gave great advice for dog walks, Alex kept us right and checked up on our needs and Philip makes a mean steak-pie at the wedding venue and I’d like to steal his recipe. Their dogs are simply beautiful and well behaved. Garden a dream and has a park behind the house to exercise dogs. If I had one criticism, the room was a tad warm, but we were staying in July. Our dogs were relaxed, we were happy and we were made to feel welcome. Thank you so much for going out of your way to get the berries for my cousin’s breakfast and the gluten free yummy sausages for our daughter. Good choice of hot drinks in the bedroom.

Leaving the wedding cake in the fridge in the bedroom - sorry

Lovely quirky B&B - we loved our stay in the garden room. Nick was the perfect host and his attention to detail is second to none, his breakfast is one of the best we've had. The location was perfect for us too and close to the town. Highly recommend Ravenscroft.

Absolutely stunning building with opulent / quirky decor , great value , fantastic hosts .

It was lovely, like a period drama set!!

The hosts were very friendly and accommodating. The room was beautifully presented and made us feel very special. It was walking distance to town restaurants and the breakfast was delicious. Highly recommend a stay at Ravenscroft. We will be back again when we return to England. Thankyou Nick.

dogs, tea and coffee

WELL lack of privacy, wasn’t able to lock our door, we were advised that the previous guests had taken the key home with them. the owner entered our room and threatened us with the police and told us to leave for having sex 😂

It was one of a kind. So wonderfully idiosyncratically decorated. In immaculate taste yet cosily quirky, incredibly comfortable and enormous fun. And Nick and Philip were the most wonderful, talented hosts. Great breakfast!
