What guests say
8.9 / 10 · Very good on Booking.com, from 94 guest reviews
Sutton House B&B earns consistently warm praise for its outstanding daily breakfasts, charming historic character, and genuinely welcoming host Thaïs and her staff. The lakeside location and walkability to shops and restaurants are well appreciated, though road noise from the adjacent main road and a handful of bathroom and room-comfort niggles are recurring minor drawbacks. Overall sentiment across the reviews is strongly positive, with the vast majority of guests eager to return.
