Fingals

We say

‘Quirky’, ‘eccentric’ and ‘the marmite of the hotel world’ are just some of the adjectives we’ve heard used to describe Richard & Sheila Johnston's fantastic country bed and breakfast. Just a mile outside Dittisham, it’s both a romantic haven and an idyllic family retreat. The four rooms are individually styled and vary in standard, but all are en-suite: one has a four-poster bed, another is large and open plan with a sunken bath and a balcony overlooking the wild stream; two of the rooms inter-connect, making them perfect for a family with small children. There are also self-catering properties sharing the free facilities on site. A grass tennis court, croquet lawn, games room, heated indoor pool and sauna overlooking the stream will ensure you’re never bored. Meals are served in the 17th-century wood-panelled dining room, and prices include breakfast; the restaurant is open for evening meals twice a week.
