Wow! Of the 7 B&Bs we stayed in during our trip to England and Ireland, Kathy and Kate's place was #1 in every way. Personable, friendly hostesses. Great breakfast with beautiful presentation and fresh fruits. Kathy even did our laundry for us for a nominal fee. Great rooms, the most comfortable beds. Immaculate bathrooms with strong water pressure and high end toiletries. The decor and furnishings were very well done and classy. Easy to get to and great parking spots. Close to the lovely town of Newbury and the A34, a major thoroughfare. Easy access to many locations. A great place for a home base as you explore the western part of England. Half hour to Oxford and one hour to the lovely town of Bristol. We highly recommend staying with Kathy and Kate. You'll not want to leave.
