“The Ultimate B&B”
Excellent B&B, everything spot on, breakfast fabulous, very quiet, loads of parking, super dog friendly, 10 minutes easy walk to a large dog friendly beach and 4 pubs all selling decent food and also dog friendly. Anyone wanting a B&B in the Instow area should try to book this one first.
