This bed and breakfast which recently received its 5 star rating is OUT OF THIS WORLD! In a rural setting with hedgerow-sided country roads, Poole Farm is a GEM!!! Louise and Greg are the consummate hostess and host. They have thought of EVERYTHING....from fresh fruit, chocolates, and everything you need to brew coffee, tea, or hot chocolate (with cookies to compliment the hot drinks) in your room to terry cloth robes hanging on the door of the luxurious bathroom. The decor is stunning and includes a beautifully appointed "lounge" (think peaceful sitting room) and elegant dining room (think linen tablecloths and napkins). The breakfast includes a self serve smorgasbord which includes every fresh fruit you can imagine (and then some!), yogurt, meat, cheese, pastries, bread, cereal, granola, and at least 4 fruit juices AND THEN is followed by menu selections of hot dishes cooked by Louise, made to order for her guests. Greg is not officially a concierge, but should be considered one. He is full of tourist information, restaurant suggestions, etc, and thinks nothing of printing out directions from a trip planning website. Do not miss this gem.... you would likely pay 350 pounds per night for it if it were in London!
