Accommodation
I am Anne Fox and my husband John and I bought Yew Tree House in May 2006. The property had been a 4 star bed and breakfast for many years and we bought it with the intention of continuing to provide a friendly, comfortable and clean bed and breakfast for our guests. The first part of the house was built in the 1690's and it has Victorian and Edwardian additions. All the rooms are spacious and individually decorated to enhance the age and features of each room. We looked at many properties and felt that Yew Tree House was exactly what we were looking for. When we arrived Yew Tree House had four letting rooms in the main house, we have developed the stables to provide 2 additional rooms which have been built and furnished to the same standard as the rest of the house. I run the business with the help of two ladies Edwina and Lizzie and my family. John helps at weekends and my four adult sons and their partners help when they are here and able to. |
