Fitzwarine House Whittington

We were viewing houses and courtesy of a last minute one had to find a room for the night at very short notice. All the normal big company ones were fully booked so we did a quick internet search of "places near us with availability". Talk about striking gold! We booked, followed the instructions to get there and were told "Can't miss it, opposite the castle." I was already liking the sound of this. "Next to the Old Bottle Pub" (will be reviewing this too!). The landlady was friendly - as were her beautiful three cats! Very disappointed that I wasn't allowed them on our bed that night (yes, we are cat owners and were missing our two). The inside of the house was old world with rooms up and down. Instantly fell in love with the layout. Spotless, warm, comfortable (one of the most comfy beds I have had the pleasure of sleeping in), coffee and tea facilities ... but to wake up to quacking ducks in the castle moat was wonderful! A fantastic use of space and fantastically well managed. Would totally go back here and avoid giving my money to the big companies.
