It was a rare gift to find your home and hosting. I arrived late and flustered for a friend's wedding. I needed to decompress the next morning and I was offered a wonderful breakfast, a chance to return to bed and sleep in the quiet and the breeze and a simply perfect selection of suggestions that afternoon – Evensong, your room, and the book market – its a wonderful
experience of time slowed down and enriched to be able to offer your guests. Kate S, London

Many thanks fellow author! We've shared beer, music, books and films. Its wonderful to come back to a warm and friendly 'home' from a busy day. Like staying with a long lost uncle! Take time to look at John's photos !!! Graham Y, Hong Kong

I found myself feeling so much “at home” - but a constant singing of “I gaze in wonder. .” Absolutely Perfect – slept really well and comfortable. Hospitality above the call of duty – hope to be back. Margaret R, Edinburgh

John, this has been a very enjoyable experience - your B&B is a treasure trove for the book lover and knowledge seeker. We would have loved to spend more time here – breakfast conversation was definitely a plus. Oh and the view from the loo is amazing! Su and Graham H, Brisbane, Australia

Dear John, anything can happen if you go on the internet and book accommodation, it can turn out a dungeon with a dragon to feed you burnt toast in the morning. But we were so lucky! A lovely house, wonderful room with the most amazing view – and most of all a very special host who never says no! Thank you so much for the hospitality and help, for us and our (26) friends! Hope the music did recompense a bit. We hope to come again! Lotte and Ed van de P, Utrecht Cathedral Choir, Holland
