Myself and a friend have just visited Avrils after a trip to the Somme area and can honestly say what a fantastic stay. Made to feel very welcome with a great atmosphere and a very enjoyable and sociable evening along with a lovely meal. We did not want to leave, but had to so we can go back and very... More

My Brother in Law and myself have just had two nights at Avrils and wished we could have stayed longer. Avrils knowledge of WW1 is amazing and the museum & cellar unmissable. But its the warmth and attention to her guests that makes this B & B feel like home. We arrived at Oceanvillas 12 hours after setting off from... More

Had a fabulous time at Avril's guesthouse when we visited in Feb 2012. The place is interesting, authentic, charming, rural and wonderfully positioned for visiting the battlefields. The guesthouse is definitely no frills, but beds were comfy, clean sheets and rooms immaculate, shower was fabulous, and a lovely breakfast well needed after a wonderful night of food and ample amounts...

My family and I stayed in Avrils guest house in July 2011 we booked it from South Africa and had a long visa process to go through and Avril helped us with all the documents we needed.

Avril is a mine of WW1 and local information, and now is the... More

Avril's is a farmhouse type of accomodation...I was made welcome from the moment I arrived with tea and thoroughly enjoyed the " family" atmosphere and made some nice friends..If you want the Ritz then this ain't for you..but if you value good conversation in the home of a true enthusiast then come here. I liked the moggies and the sheep... More

Anyone travelling to the Somme area on a battlefield tour should not leave Avrils out of their itinerary! If you need accommodation or just a drink or snack, this is the place! I have stayed here on a number of occasions and also popped in for a snack as a couple and with a much larger group. Whilst the accommodation... More

This was our second stay with Avril. We (family of 4) stayed in a very spacious apartment above the restaruant/tea roo,m which was clean and well appointed. The meals were plentiful and fresh. The location is excellent for touring the Somme battlefield. Avrill's own property has much to offer with her own substantial museum, fabulous restored trench in the garden... More
