sodapop the point was that it used to be a hotel but decided to be a B&B. That may be a commercial risk for that place which obviously has long term returning guests who expect a dining room.

Unless there is a decent pub that does food within a short walk, or other restaurants close by, then I’m afraid I’d go to an Hotel as well.

Sorry, I thought B&B was just that. Some places may serve an evening meal as an add on but if you want full board then an hotel is the way to go.

I feel the same as you. That place looked lovely and I pencilled it in for a possible visit but we'll go elsewhere if we have go out again for dinner. It's so much nicer to be able to relax with a drink and just pop to your room after a leisurely evening.

Watching this week's episode I was delighted to see the owner of the hotel in question being taken to Lindeth Fell Hotel to see how they do it so well . The idea was to let the couple see how going for B & B alone can work. We used to love Lindeth Fell and went there for years until they stopped doing evening meals . Who wants to have to get in the car and drive somewhere to eat ? Having a drink as well is impossible so we have stopped going though we were greeted like long lost frinds every time we went . Sheena who now runs it is the daughter of the couple who first bought it to run as a hotel . How do others feel about evening meals if you have to drive to find one ?
