Visitors comments

• thank you so much for a really pleasant B&B experience at the Norwegian Wood - good luck & best wishes from Rob, Becky, Toby & Holly xx

 

• Thank you for a wonderful a couple of days, you made us all feel so welcome.  The room was spacious, clean and comfortable, the breakfasts were tasty and the evening meal you cooked us was first class.  I would recommend you to friends and we will definitely be back, if we're in the area.
  
• Thanks Heather, for looking after me so well.  I love the principles of what you’re doing with Norwegian Wood – I can’t imagine your guests ever feeling like they’re ‘just another customer’.  The room & bathroom were beautiful, spotless and really comfortable – I immediately felt ‘home from home’.  My Aga-cooked dinner was equally unfussy, prepared with care, and really delicious.  You were so helpful, thoughtful,  interesting, and calm – all making it quite possibly one of my most relaxing nights in a B&B ever.

 

• Wow! organic Heaven! totally lush food and hospitality,norwegianwood is a wonderful jewel in Devon's crown.
• Beautifully clean and spacious room,quiet and comfortable, with superb views of the sea, delicious breakfast, and gracious hosts for whom nothing is too much trouble.
• A big thank-you from us to heather and john for making us so at home in their lovely home. We were made to feel really welcome and really at home. Interesting chat, great views, delicious food and great location at a budget price, what more could you ask for! Would highly recommend!

thanks for a lovely weekend hope to see you soonx

 

To Heather and John Nicholson of Norwegian Wood Organic B and B, after our weekend spent in your lovely Bed and Breakfast I wanted to take the time to thank you for completing a perfect little weekend get-away.  We both felt very welcome and relaxed throughout the stay thanks to the great hospitality, tranquil settings, gorgeous rooms and fabulous food. It was a trip that will no be forgotten and we look forward to repeating again in the future.

  Just wanted to say a big thanks for making me feel so welcome during my stay at Norwegian Wood.
   
  It was the perfect location and an excellent find!
   
  It's close to Totnes where I was doing a yoga course. It was a scenic and easy drive which was well rewarded due to the location of your home. In between yoga sessions, I could take lovely beach walks on the almost private Hollicome beach or walk further afield into Painton and Goodrington beach.
   
   
  The breakfasts were excellent - very tasty, filling and nutritious. I have even changed some of my eating habits as a result of some of your suggestions and feel much better for it.
   
  I loved the views from the bedroom and the garden to the sea. The room was very comfortable and I loved the lounge seating area and bathroom. Everything was so clean and homely. Definitely a home away from home, a perfect retreat, and one that I hope to return to some day soon.
   
  
• 'One of the best B &B's I've stayed in, and the friendliest.  Sausages to die for'.

  Just wanted to say thank you for the lovely stay.  The pillows were divine, relaxing with such amazing views was restorative, and breakfast was scrumptious.
  
• Dear HeatherDer Aufenthalt im "Norwegian Wood" hat alle unsere Erwartungen erfüllt: Freundlichkeit, wunderbarer Garten, tolle Aussicht aufs Meer, schöne Zimmer, gesundes britisches Frühstück und Nähe zu Bus, Bahn und Meer. Guter Ausgangspunkt für Wanderungen und Ausflüge zum Dartmoor, Totnes, Plymouth, Cornwall und viele andere Orte im Südwesten Englands. Wir empfehlen dieses B&B uneingeschränkt weiter.
