The Owls Crest House B&B

Accompanying 642 The B&B has had it's present owners for 26 years. They had stopped taking bookings but after 10 weeks they were bored and now have 2-3 of the five rooms occupied, minimum two nights and, with our first night, we were the only guests as others had checked out. Arrival: Had a call from a withheld number, went driving and two minutes from the property, it was the proprietor. I presume they were expec us bang on the minute? Check in was 15-18... Greeted by him. Michael. He took us up the stairs and chatted to us when he reached the top, awkward when you're carrying a suitcase as you'd rather got it off balancing on the stairs. He were in a twin, room 3 iirc, potentially two. The window is a bit overlooked, double deck bus passengers can peer in. Gorgeous garden, nice view of it from breakfast too Lovely breakfast although a non musical radio start wasn't ideal to have on behind me, especially with Trump and Gaza being discussed...plus when he mentioned he cleaned the rooms to prevent COVID-19 and "the vomiting one" whilst eating a mouthful of sausage, beans and egg. Incredible entrance from the kitchen from his wife who started with turning to me as she walked in by saying name, then turning and saying my wife's and welcoming us. Mike did apologise whilst we eat when he said he hope he didn't mind the recent news of "the sexism diseases having no cure" (eek!) I recommend the fried egg, perfectly cooked, one of the best ever. No local independent ales at the pub next door alas. The decor was nice but the rooms and the sign need a lick of paint and repairing. The mattress was thin, it was like sleeping on a cushioned wire mat Happy to try there again. Mike has declining eye sight so don't delay.

Was a good place , easy to access and just a calming place to be in

The mattress and pillows in the room we were in need an upgrade.

Very good breakfast Great coffee

I would have liked a king sized bed

Location was as expected, booked room with sea view - which it did have. Rooms are tidy and clean but could possibly do with a slight update, The breakfast was excellent with every taste catered for.

as stated perhaps a small update in the rooms decor

Beautiful large cottage on hillside road. Parking available at the back. Close to many walks and sand and sea. On bus route. Tide goes a long way out but still wonderful views. A short trip on the hillside road around to Weston-Super-Mare and all it has to offer. Lovely hosts plus a yummy breakfast provided. Only stayed 1 night as seeing a show but would have stayed longer. Good base for touring the area.

All was good.

It was a lovely B&B lovely area lovely owners called Maura and Micheal very interested where we had come from and what we had been up to in the day gave us great information to where to go lovely cooked breakfast every morning. Great pub over the road and great location

Shower cubicle a bit small and mattress a bit firm but nothing to major apart from that all lovely

The owners were lovely and friendly, and very informative of the area x this is a little gem of a find x will defo come back x nice location and just a lovely place. Breakfast was fantastic, room was clean, bright and airy, shower was better than some of the chains we have stayed in. Worth a stay.

Such a warm, friendly welcome from this lovely couple! Our room was very clean and comfortable. It had everything we needed. There were plenty of options at breakfast, including homemade preserves. Lovely! We would definitely love to return if we're in that part of the country again.

Micheal & Maura were absolutely lovely & very welcoming. It was lovely & quiet & comfortable. Just what we needed. Breakfast cooked by Maura every morning was lovely. & a lovely pub next door.

Phone signal was poor. But managed to get WiFi from the pub next door. So I could phone home.
