Nice room and friendly host

CathySouth AfricaLovely old house.
The place is advertised and, tables set for breakfast, salt pepper tamato sauce 🤔, but I dud not receive any. B&B implies that you are paying for a breakfast. I was not asked previously if I wanted…

Place did not provide breakfast.
The Bathrooms need to be renovated. Old type toilets with loose seat. Basin is old and most critical is shower needs a revamp.

What we’d check for you here
- How many rooms they will hold at once, for how long, and on what terms.
- That the step-free room is actually free on your dates, and whether it is a roll-in shower or a bath, which the listing never says.
- That the desk is staffed when you land, and that the room is held past cut-off.
- Whether there is room for a pickup, a trailer or a van, not just a car.
- Whether the rate moves for your dates, and what it includes.

Questions about Taunton House B&B
What time is check-in and check-out at Taunton House B&B?
Check-in is from 2:00 PM. Check-out is by 10:00 AM. If you're arriving late, tell us and we'll ask the property to hold the room.
Does Taunton House B&B allow pets?
No — the property states that pets are not allowed.
Is there parking at Taunton House B&B?
Yes — the property states that parking on site is free. Whether a space can be reserved in advance varies, so we check it against your dates.
Does Taunton House B&B have Wi-Fi?
Yes — internet access is listed among the property's facilities.
Can I book a block of rooms at Taunton House B&B?
The property lists meeting and banquet space, which usually means it handles group business — but how many rooms it will hold at once, for how long, and at what rate are set case by case and are not in any feed. Tell us the dates and the number of rooms and we'll get those terms from the property in writing before anything is charged.
Does Taunton House B&B have wheelchair accessible rooms?
The property lists step-free or accessible facilities. That flag is the one least able to settle the question: a hotel can carry it and still have a step at the entrance, or a bath rather than a roll-in shower, and it does not say whether the accessible room is free on your dates. Tell us what you need and we'll ask the property directly rather than reading you the flag.
Can I check in late at Taunton House B&B?
The property lists a front desk staffed 24 hours, so a late arrival should be possible. Standard check-in is from 2:00 PM. Rooms are still released after a cut-off at some properties regardless of the desk hours, so tell us your arrival time and we'll have them hold it.
How do I book Taunton House B&B?
Put your dates in above and book online, or call (888) 789-8585 and we'll do it for you — including things a booking form can't handle, like a block of rooms, a monthly rate or an invoice for your employer.
