An absolute find - more than just a place to stay. Meredith House is an experience in itself. From the moment you enter, Neal and Noel greet you with a warmth and nostalgia that make you feel like old friends reuniting.
We were also fortunate enough to meet their gorgeous westie terriers Lulu and Dougall, which add a homely and familiar feeling to the house.
Comfortable, clean and cosy conjoined studios form the ‘Mews’. A fully equipped kitchen awaits complete with dishwasher, fridge and glasses for any occasion.
The bathroom boasts a clean and welcoming traditional spa - with complimentary bath salts and other bath/shower products to enjoy.
They’ve thought of everything from tea light candles with matches to a pedestal fan, an absolute must for us when staying anywhere!
Top off the evening with a glass of port on the private deck overlooking an English style fairy garden, with bbq facilities for those warmer afternoons.
With a comfortable bed to lay and rest after a walk around the sleepy town, Meredith House has a familiar and kind feeling.
I’d read other reviews about the breakfast available and they weren’t overestimating - Neal and Noel have worked hard for almost twenty years to perfect a menu of satisfying pastries, muffins, and a smorgasbord of traditional and continental breakfast items.
Each tasty morsel has been baked by them in their kitchen - I loved the touch of the ‘doggy bag’ at the end to take away the yummy treats to enjoy throughout the day.
The pictures on the website and other booking sites simply do not do this place justice - if you are lucky enough to stay here you will appreciate the understated yet tasteful space these two folk have created, down to the last detail.
We will definitely be back, and a shout out to the exceptional ‘mushroom gravy’ I enjoyed this morning - never had anything like it before!
