On arrival we had a very warm welcome, and offered tea or coffee and fresh home made scones. The bedroom was very spacious, clean and nicely decorated. The breakfast was the best we have ever had. The owners were very friendlyS S S S S Linda And Edward Jones - United Kingdom (August, 2015)
A superb B&B in a wonderful location,you will not be disappointed.S S S S S Steve Hyde - United Kingdom (July, 2015)
When searching on the internet for a place to stay for a night near center parcs we discovered Laurel House B & B . We are pensioners and have never stayed in a B & B before and if Laurel house is anything to go by we have wasted a lot of our time and money on hotels. From the moment we arrived we were treated to the little extras that make a stay wonderful. Tea and scones, cold milk and a glass of wine on arrival. The room was lovely and the pub down the road, booked by our hosts, presented a great meal in front of a roaring log fire. It was very cold outside. If we are ever in the area again we will have no hesitation in booking into the Laurel.S S S S S David And Susan Pearce - United Kingdom (June, 2015)
It would be hard to find a better place to stay. Laurel House is a lovely old house with large garden in an attractive village,perfect as a base for the beautiful Eden Valley and Alex and Jeff are wonderful hosts- welcoming, friendly, generous and helpful. Our room was beautifully furnished with a super-comfortable bed and en-suite with good shower. Tea and scones on arrival and delicious breakfast. This was our second stay here, I hope and expect it will not be our last. Alex and Jeff's kindness ensures that guests feel relaxed and at home. They do everything necessary and more to make your stay enjoyable. In-house entertainment provided by two friendly, well-behaved Jack Russells.S S S S S H And R Marks - United Kingdom (September, 2014)
We stayed at Laurel house for two nights on our way up to Scotland. The owners Jeff and Alex were extremely welcoming and friendly and on our arrival we were greeted and provided with tea and homemade scones in the garden as well as a lovely glass of wine and lager. We stayed in the Oak room which was at the front of the house which was beautiful and luxurious with a huge bathroom. The breakfast had plenty of choice, cereals, fresh fruit, full cooked breakfast with homemade breads and preserves, which was delicious. It was nice sitting with other guests which made it a nice relaxing atmosphere. Nothing was too much trouble for the hosts and they booked us a table at the black swan pub on the Friday and at Mrs Millers on the Saturday. The food at both was excellent. They also printed us direction to Hadrian's wall as well as advising us on where to visit during our stay. The house is beautiful and full of history. I couldn't have wished for a more perfect place to stay and would certainly stay here again. Thank you Jeff and Alex for providing us the most perfect start to our trip. xxS S S S S Lisa Shaw - United Kingdom (August, 2014)
