Over the years the lines have been blurred as to what constitutes a traditional bed and breakfast with many owners stamping their own particular style to their establishment which can transport their accommodation style into other categories such as spa retreats, self catering etc.

Eden Lodge is a traditional bed and breakfast. Firstly, traditional bed and breakfasts are a working home.  The home  should be low key and comfortable and above all you should feel welcomed.  As soon as you walk in and meet your host you should feel relaxed and safe in the knowledge that you are valued.   Afternoon tea should be offered and you should feel like you have been there many times before, even if this is your first stay.

Traditional bed and breakfasts are sociable places so if you want to arrive and just sleep your stay away then this is probably not the right style of accommodation for you.  Traditional bed and breakfasts provide a clean and hospitable base for you to explore from.   So you need to check in, drop your bags off, enjoy afternoon tea and plan your activities and explore the region you have chosen to visit. 

You need to arrive with a sense of humour and just enjoy.  Breakfast is always a sociable affair with hearty conversations.  You never know who you will meet.  I find that after 8 years of hosting a traditional bed and breakfast, guests who would usually have booked into  upmarket hotels are now choosing this style of stay.  They love the social interaction.

So with all this in mind come and stay.  We would love to welcome you.
