C and C Hawkins, Solihull. February 2009

Hello there....

Yes all back safely thanks. We had a lovely weekend and in part down to your hospitality and advise on eating and walking it off again!

We have spent far too much of our lives in faceless hotels whisking in and out of towns and cities courtesy of some company or other. It is a treat to find a haven of realism and meet a couple that have clearly spent a great deal of time & trouble creating a comfortable & stylish environment for those seeking a bed for the night that doesn't smell of overcooked cabbage! There was one but that's another storey!

Many thanks again for looking after us and we wish you well for the future and building the business.... we can't foresee that you will have much trouble! Great breakfast by the way & Steph loved Pebbles just a bit too much... fortunately not in our boot when we got home but I fear was a close call.

P & S Caunt, Cheltenham. February 15 2009

K Latouf, Hampshire Cricket Club. January 9 2009

Thank you again for looking after us so well! We were completely bowled over by the quality of your amazing house and you and your family’s warm and easy hospitality. We had a good drive back to Port Solent, stopping for a great lunch in Lyme Regis - home to the boys now; school and work start again tomorrow. We'll definitely come again and would be happy to recommend your place to anyone we know.

I forgot to ask you where you had got your bathroom fittings from - I'm about to pull out my bathrooms and I was inspired by the great job you've done in the room we stayed in - if you have a moment, let me know.

D Latta and N Lomas, Port Solent, Hampshire. January 4 2009

Everything was great and thank you for the details regarding your fantastic mattress toppers. I have contacted Martin and one is on it’s way. We would like to book again for December 2009.

N and R Mansell, Isle of Man. January 3 2009

Dear Barry, Alison & Pebbles,

Thank you for your hospitality, we all had a wonderful time, the house was lovely and the breakfast superb, the only downside is the fact that we had to go out early this morning to buy some fresh fruit for the children, as now they have a taste for it in the morning. Ultimately that’s all good though, better than sugar coated cereals! They all missed pebbles terribly and on the way home were endlessly trying to convince me to get one, but there’s only going to be one pebbles. We will definitely come and visit but not until the spring.

We arrived totally stressed out and departed totally chilled out. I will tell my boss about Heath Close Bed and Breakfast and Budleigh Salterton and hopefully the magic will work on him. Thank you and see you soon.

G and J Clements, Wallington, Surrey. December 4 2008

Thank you very much for looking after my Mum and Dad during their recent short stay with you. They have not stopped talking about how wonderful your house is and how friendly and welcoming you both made them. Mum said she has not had such a good nights sleep for twenty years in your wonderful beds. No doubt they will see you again in 2009. Many thanks
