“attention to detail”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 22 September 2011

This Band B in richmond was fantastic. Room was spacious, bed was comfortable and the shower room was completed to high standards. Breakfast was wonderful with fresh fruit, nuts and dried fruits as well as excellent cooked meal and toast. When we arrived we were given a pot of tea and biscuits and there was more in the room as well as sweets and chocolates. We ordered a packed lunch for the next day and this was excellent too. visiting walkers had muddy boots whisked away and put into a warm cupboard for the next morning. No detail was left unaddressed. our new tandem was given a place in the kitchen for the night and we were very impressed by the care taken of all the guests. A small flask of fresh milk replaced the usual sachets of UHT which epitomises the level of attention Colin and Sandra put in to running this little jewel.

“Absolutely amazing.”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 September 2011 via mobile

This is the absolute best b and b I have ever stayed at. It is perfect in every way. Such a shame we were only here for one night on our c to c trip. From the moment we arrived Sansa and Colin made us feel so welcome and were so helpful. After being taken to our beautiful room, complete with sweets / biscuits and fresh flowers we settled in before going downstairs for tea and biscuits and gave Sandra our bag of washing. What a service, and one which we were so grateful for.
There was a very good info pack in our room but also information everywhere as well as all the information our hosts shared with us.
Had a lovely Indian just up the road and then back to our beautiful bed for a fabulous night sleep.
Breakfast, as we would expect from these two, was superb, delicious porrige, yoghurts, fruit, croissants - we would have love to try a cooked breakfast here but have just had too many!
We left a much cleaner and well rested couple with our packed lunch which, of course, was lovely.
Could keep going on about how fabulous this place is, such amazing value for money.

“Excellent!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 29 August 2011

Stayed here on the Coast to Coast. Owners very walker friendly, providing a boot cupboard and washing service- much appreciated! Room was spotless and beautifully decorated, with lovely touches such as fresh milk, sweets and biscuits and fresh flowers. Breakfast was excellent, with a great choice of both hot and cold options. would definately recommend.

“Immaculate B&B in centre of Richmond”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 17 June 2011
2
people found this review helpful

Willance House is perfectly appointed. An old house with character, room tasteful and elegant, and thoughtful touches such as fresh milk and a selection of biscuits. At breakfast you could sprinkle fresh cinnamon, ginger or coconut on your meusli. Close to centre for pubs and restaurants but in a quiet street.
