    This was such a lovely b&b. Clean and fresh with a spotless ensuite bathroom. The breakfast was just right. Perfectly cooked dippy eggs and yogurt with honey as requested. I would definitely stay again.

Jaki and Jeff
We are based in the village of Thorney, and located less than 2 minutes walk from the local park. Occasionally you might be lucky enough to see muntjac or roe deer. There is a large children's play area too, and the beautiful Abbey can be accessed though a gate,
This is a new venture for both of us, but we are known for our hospitality and warm welcome. We look forward to meeting lots of new people, We have had previous experience in the hospitality industry, albeit from a number of years ago.
The unique and beautiful village of Thorney was once owned by the Duke of Bedford, who in the 1800s, built a row of cottages for his estate workers and farm hands. These still stand today and form the main high street. The pretty Abbey dating back to the 1400s is still majestic, overlooking the village, although there has been a religious settlement here since medieval times.
