The Old Bakehouse

The room was tastefully furnished with a comfortable bed and a chair to enjoy the view over the town. There was a great range of bathroom products and plenty of clean soft towels. We stayed over Easter weekend and loved the little chocolate Easter bunnies left on the breakfast table. The breakfast was excellent and we enjoyed chatting to the friendly host.

Cant rate this b and b high enough.Perfect in every way...lovely , helpful host Frances who had wonderful staff too.immaculately clean. Lovely ensuite bedroom. Gorgeous decor. Breakfast lovely and so fresh with lots of choice. Definately recommend. Set in gorgeous small town with lovely pubs. Perfect base for exploring the area. Definately want to go back.

We stayed in Steve's holiday cottage which is attached to the Old Bakehouse B&B in Colyton. From start to finish, communication with Steve was excellent. The cottage is immaculate. We felt at home straightaway - Steve had thought of everything. From the thoughtful welcome gifts to the well-equipped kitchen, we had everything we needed and more. Unfortunately we were only there for three nights but we wanted to (and will) stay far longer. The beds were really comfortable, the showers were excellent with lovely natural body products provided for us and the balcony was perfect for an evening drink after a day in the sun, exploring the beautiful countryside around Colyton. The town has two convenience stores, lovely independent shops and some great places to eat. Finally, we have stayed in many places that say they are dog-friendly, but at Steve's cottage, our little dog Sid was made to feel so at home. In short, it was a perfect stay. Thanks Steve!

What a great B&B! Lovely room, with lots of important extras like large bottles of shampoo, conditioner and shower/bath gel, not those horrible sachets you can never open! Excellent breakfast served by lovely girls who were very polite and obliging. The whole place is decorated in the English traditional style and is very comfortsble. We stayed there while visiting relatives over Christmas and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. We all even got a lovely gift on Christmas morning! I'd stay there again in a heartbeat. Thank you Frances.

What an amazing find! A beautiful stay in a perfrct location. Steven was an incredible host! Friendly, welcoming and attentive. Very knowledgeable about the local area and on hand to offer advice about local restaurants and attractions. The room was cosy and very clean, lots of attention to detail, such as fresh water in our room on arrival, filter coffee bags and Tea Pig tea bags as well as full sized faith in nature Toiletries which for me personally, was a lovely touch. All these little extra things that showed the hosts care about the quality of the guest experience. Breakfast and service was delightful, we felt that nothing was too much trouble and everything was tasty and high quality ingredients were used, fresh fruit and lovely filter coffee. We particularly liked the ambient music over breakfast from the charming record player.On our second night Stephen offered us use of the guest lounge and plates and wine glasses should we fancy a cosy night in which we thought was a very nice touch.I would definitely recommend this place if you are looking for a place to stay while touring the Devon/Dorset coast. I wouldn't hesitate to return if we were back in the area.Thanks again for a lovely stay and we wish you guys all the best for the busy summer season ahead. Andy and Ash

We had a lovely 2 days at the charming, welcoming B & B. Our hosts were friendly and helpful and provided a delicious breakfast, catering for some dietary needs with ease. The room was delightful & we too loved the products in the bathroom. The mattress was super comfy. Parking was easy. We agree with everything the previous reviewer wrote. Good luck & we highly recommend!
