Lovely quiet house spotlessly clean and well equipped. The house has a beautiful garden, the house is set well back from the road. It is well signposted. Mary is a friendly welcoming host would definitely stay in Philmar again. Breakfast was good too with plenty of choice.

We really enjoyed this B&B. First of all, Mary couldn't do enough for us. She kindly upgraded us to a larger room that was unoccupied. It had a private entrance and was toward the back of the house. She is very personable and was very good about giving us tips about places to go and see. The grounds around the house are really pretty and we could sit outside in the front garden or on the back deck that had a table and umbrella. We were provided a made to order breakfast the was delicious and generous. This was one of our favorite places .

Extremely comfortable and very welcoming with a great tip for a local pub where we interacted for almost an hour even though they didn't serve food on that night but were then informed of another location to have our dinner.
