Owner was never there. Bed never changed. Towels never changed. (After the 3rd day found the linens and freshened the room our selves.) No key to our room so had to take camera, cell, laptop each time we went out. Breakfast was coffee, tea, toast and yogurt. We spent far too much money. Very disappointed.
This has to be the most unfriendly B & B we have ever visited. The owner is mostly absent and unhelpful. Outdated local restaurant menu's are in with outdated area information on shelves and in a basket located in the breakfast room. Very uninspired set-out breakfast. They offer no maid service in the rooms - do it yourself. It's on a main highway and traffic noise begins about 5am.
This is a wonderful B&B experience. The host is terrific, the location is the best in town - all other places I thought of staying were out on the highway and would have meant driving in to the center of town. At Abel Darling you can walk everywhere. You have complete access to a beautiful 18th century home right on the green and no one bothers ...
If you are looking for a quiet, pampered B&B experience, this is not the lodging for you.
No one was there when we arrived, thought we were at the wrong place.
House along VERY busy and noisy street. Breakfast was "raid the owners kitchen". No housekeeping services: we were there 4 days and bed not made, no fresh towels, ...
