The School House is charming, the bedroom is comfort and had everything we needed. The dining room was lovely with some great touches such as photos of from when it was a functioning school. Nicky and her husband Jim were very welcoming and clearly love living there, they have such talent and the evidence of their crafting skills add to the charm of the whole place. Nicky makes great jam!

Not much, being really niggly, hen we came in at night the roses attacked us getting to the front door and could have benefited from being cut back to avoid being snagged.

We chose to stay at the School House primarily due to it's location. We were visiting family and friends in the village. The proprietors Nikki and Tom were very warm and welcoming. Our room (Gold) was very clean and comfortable. We had a very relaxed stay and slept like a log every night. Nice view out of the window overlooking the local church yard. Lovely breakfast made of locally sourced ingredients including eggs from their very own chucks. The School House has been transformed into a very unique B&B. Some lovely touches which have kept the character of the building with original pictures and photos reflecting its past life as the village school. We had a wonderful stay and will definitely be booking again.

Nothing. Everything was to our satisfaction.

Friendly owner who communicated well. Beautiful house, nice big bedroom and bathroom. Comfy beds. Spotlessly clean. Very quiet.

Nothing really. If I was pushed to find a fault, perhaps breakfast could have been a little better. We didn't request every item of the Full English breakfast. But it would have been nice to have more of the items we did choose, instead of half empty plates. But I'm nit picking as it's a really lovely place and I would highly recommend it.

Warm welcome from the start, the room was beautifully presented with great additional amenities such as a fan and a good hair dryer. We stayed in the blue room which had a beautiful view over the church. Both Nicky and Jim were fantastic and welcomed us both warmly. The breakfast menu has both full English and a wide selection of cereals and fruit salad. We will definitely be coming back to explore the local area.

Honestly, nothing at all.

School House is in an excellent position on our cycle route. Bike storage was very easy and secure. The room and sitting room was very comfortable and exceptionally clean. Bed comfortable and room quiet. Breakfast was well organised and very tasty. It was a bit of a pain having to get a taxi into town for a meal (both local pubs seem to be closed) but if you book your taxi in advance it is not a problem.

Our room (facing the church) was large, comfortable and attractively decorated. The bed was very good. The en-suite bathroom was well appointed with excellent electric shower over a large bath. Breakfast in impressive former classroom. Quiet location off the main road through the village. Parking was fine. Helpful and friendly owners.

Steps up from the road to the front door - better than a steep path and not a great problem but perhaps a handrail would be beneficial.

Beautiful house. Exceptionally maintained. Provision of car parking was ideal. Little tight getting to the parking, but this was explained on the details of the B&B. The breakfast was good with plenty of choice. Lovely bread and home made jam.

The bed had seen better days and was very uncomfortable. We both struggled to sleep. Although a kettle along with tea and coffee was provided, there was no milk. It was also difficult to use the hairdryer as there wasn't a plug socket close to a mirror.

I highly recommend the School House. The owners are very nice and gave us some great sightseeing tips. Our room was great. Spotlessly clean, with a very comfortable bed and great quality bed linen. A nice bathroom and a very good shower. We had a lovely view to the church opposite, and it was so nice to wake up to birdsong. A great homemade breakfast in the beautiful school room next to a toasty wood burning stove, and a pretty garden. Thank you, Nicky and Jim.

Everything was good.

Welcoming host, excellent breakfast. Poor mobile signal, but host kindly allowed me to use her landline phone. Very good selection of tea/coffee etc. in room. Character property sensitively adapted to provide a welcoming place to stay.

Mattress was OK for me, but my husband found it uncomfortable. Hard wooden chair in room was uncomfortable, but not an issue as comfortable sofa provided in guests' lounge downstairs.

My friend and I had a lovely overnight stay at The School House this weekend. The School House is in the quaint village of Woolavington opposite the Church. The hosts made us feel very welcome. The room was very clean and well equipped with a kettle and a range of teas and coffee. We both slept very well and the beds were very comfortable. It was so peaceful. The breakfast was served in the large dining room and there was plenty to choose from. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would definitely recommend The School House.

There was nothing we didn't like.
