Reviews for The Aviary B&B
Review 1：I had some difficulty locating the B&B in the dark, as no sign was visible and the numbering of the houses a few houses up started at a higher number ??? 26 ... confused me. Note it is the first house on your left as you drive off Castle road.
Review 2：I loved the room - spacious, nicely decorated and quiet .... I was given a warm and homely welcome from the host.
Review 3：nothing to add.
Review 4：on arrival you are made very welcome at this private house. Tea and biscuits on arrival were a very civilised ending to what turned out to be a 5 hour journey. The welcome is warm, the room spacious, immaculate, and comfortable, Wi-Fi good and a smashing breakfast.
Review 5：So well furbished and clean.Quiet spot.The Lady went that little further than most to make us welcome. Made a nice cup a and biscuits on arrival.The breakfast was awesome.
Review 6：ABSOLUTLY everything not any faults the breakfast the room was beautiful. all lovely decorated and pretty homely things tea coffee biscuits they had thought of everything even spare flannel toothpaste,toothbrush, and even shower gel
Review 7：From the moment we arrived Margaret made us feel welcome we have stayed in hotels and have not been in the quality accommodation that this BB has to offer its fantastic and we could find no fault. Breakfast was first class with everything on offer. Amazing BB all topped of with an excellent host.A very large thank you.
Review 8：WiFi a bit "spotty" not high speed. Shower in the ensuite is very small virtually impossible to turn around in. Breakfast - would have appreciated a choice of brown or white toast and option of proper (rather than instant) coffee.
Review 9：Comfortable room.
Review 10：It was not rtivial to locate house.
Review 11：The room is beautiful, spacious and well equipped. Beatiful and comfortable bed. Breakfast was the best we got in England. Hospitality was great.
Review 12：Enjoyed the warm welcome from Margaret who was very accommodating especially as we were returning from a wedding past midnight. We were able to check in early to leave our luggage which we were grateful for. We could also walk back from a wedding held at the Allington Castle (5 minutes to the gate and another 5 to the castle itself) so very convenient!
Review 13：Shower could do with a pressure boost, but that's a minor point.
Review 14：Spacious and clean room, very large bed, peaceful. Superb breakfast - huge and perfectly cooked full English plus excellent fresh fruits in a very nice dining room looking out onto a leafy garden complete with birds and squirrels. Friendly but discreet hostess. All in all, great value for money.
Review 15：The door to the room could not be locked. I was the only person staying at the B&B at the time so the security of the room and my possessions was not an issue but if other guests were staying, I would have been a little concerned.
Review 16：Owner was very welcoming and helpful. The room was very comfortable. Was provided with a lovely breakfast.
Review 17：Lovely big room, helpful host & great breakfast. If you're fed up with faceless hotels, want a truly warm welcome & memorable stay then The Aviary is for you !
Review 18：Our stay started poorly as the gentleman that met us treated us like we were a nuisance and wished we weren't there. We almost left. We met Margaret the next morning and she turned things around by being most gracious, friendly and helpful.
Review 19：Margaret is the reason we would recommend this property. She made our stay a pleasant one. Margaret also went way out of her way by bringing to the next place we were staying (40 minute drive) a pair of expensive boots we had forgotten and left.
Review 20：Nothing
Review 21：Margaret was absolutely brilliant, from offering to make a sandwich for us in arrival to giving us bottles of water for the journey when we left. Nothing was too much trouble and we felt quite at home there
Review 22：We stayed at the Aviary B&B for 3 nights and would highly recommend it. The bedroom was very large and comfortable with lots of extras. Margaret was a fantastic host, she couldn't have been more helpful or accommodating and we were made to feel very welcome.
