Facilities and Services

All our accommodation is No-Smoking.
We offer storage of prams / pushchairs in the hallway, or locked in the ban, adjacent to the B&B.
We can offer any of our rooms as a family room, or we have 2 rooms upstairs with a connecting door.  If the 2 rooms are used the first 2 people staying in the 2nd room are charged as adults.
We have cots and high chairs, to save you bringing your own.
Nappy bins are available on request, as an additional bin in your en-suite.
A shared fridge is provided in the hallway for all B&B guests to use.
Childrens books, games and TV channels are provided.

Food Arrangements

Guests who need to heat up milk or baby food will be allowed to use the kitchen to do so.
Children follow the same menu as their parents, with all the local and healthy food choices available to them.  We just serve a smaller portion for them.
There are no restrictions on breakfast time.  Children eat along side the adults.

Safety and Security

A childminding service can be arranged prior to the stay, with a national provider.  The parents are free to arrange this via http://www.childcare.co.uk/ .
Electric socket covers are available in a box in the hallway.

Additional Information

We have no restrictions on the age of children that we will accommodate.
In the B&B the child rate is charged when the children are staying with 2 adults, otherwise the room is charged as the first 2 people (maybe an adult and a child) at the adult rate then other children at the child rate.  Babies under 2 are able to have a cot, which is charged at £5 a night.
Unfortunately in the passed we have had damage, due to mis-use, and we will now charge for damage or breakages.

Nappies -  There is no nappy wahsing service in North Devon.  We can dispose of any disposable nappies with our paid collection rubbish, or they can be taken to the recycling centre at Killacleve, in Ilfracombe.
