Review of The Sheldon B&B 3*

2nd time staying at The Sheldon, we really liked the B&B the first time of staying a couple of years ago, so we were pleased to book for a weekend away, The Sheldon offers free parking for customers which is fantastic as it gives you an opportunity to explore the town without the added cost of paying for parking, On arrival we were greeted at the door by a chap who let us in, sadly he didn't welcome us to the B&B and we were a little confused as he didn't have anything identifying him as a member of staff, he signed us in and gave us our information pack, but I hate to complain… He was very quiet and didn't do much to make us feel welcome to his establishment, anyway we made our way to our room, it was really nice, clean and fairly well sized and had a view up the street, it featured a shower cubicle but no bath, this was fine with us, reading the information pack it gave instructions on how to use the shower due to it being "gravity fed" despite the instructions it was still a little tricky to get going, but once it was it was fine. The bed was comfortable and we had a good night's sleep, the only let down was that there are blinds in the room but no curtains, so alot of light came in upon sunrise, luckily we had the forethought to purchase eyemasks to get around this issue, also 2 out of 3 blinds could not be adjusted, and the main window was unable to be opened due to being sealed and painted shut, not a major problem as the two side windows were able to open. Also thy B&B offers free Wi-Fi… We could not connect/discover the network on 2 different devices… Breakfast… down stairs it's served, even though it wasn't busy when we arrived, we had to ask a member of staff if we needed to find our own seating as there was no clear indication, we sat down at a table and our breakfast order was taken… Difficult to decide what to have when there are no menus on the tables… So I requested Bacon, Sausages, Mushroom and Scrambled Egg (photo attached) the helping was not what I was expecting, 1 very small sausage and not even 2 whole Mushrooms, this was really disappointing, on top of this the fruit didn't look overly fresh and there was no continental options… Nothing, so for me the breakfast was not enough in my opinion, Overall we enjoyed the room and parking, but the breakfast let down the whole stay, we would probably stay again for the convenience of free parking and a nice room but would see if we could negotiate a discount and have breakfast elsewhere, It's a shame as a couple of years have passed and the Sheldon just isn't the same place as we had first experienced.
