Remember a Bed & Breakfast is a private home in which you are a guest - not a hotel.
Your hosts still have to go to the shops, visit the dentist, get a haircut (none of which can be done on the doorstep in this remote area) and have a life in the small community in which they live. There will naturally be restrictions as to entry and exit times for new arrivals & guests checking out. Very often the only “free” time in a day for your hosts is 2-4pm.

We like to feel our guests are house guests sharing our home. This assumes a level of responsibility on the part of our guests, along with a little independence. We are available to help but not on demand 24/7 !

Communication is always very welcome. Please do ring or make contact to discuss your requirements ahead of arrival. Pre planning is so essential here as any supplies can be a long way away – down single track roads or only arrive in the village once a week.

Popular guests arrive between 4-6pm having advised us about any food requirements ahead of arrival. They communicate their needs regarding evening meals (here or locally) and breakfasts whilst we get to know each other. Become reasonably self contained when here, using the information pack, books and maps available to good effect. Have a good chat at breakfasts and give us an idea of their informed plans having studied the weather forecast provided and based on length of stay in the area. They depart by 10.30am on the day of departure.
