After you’ve stuffed your face with truffles and tea, you’ll need a place to collapse. Enter the Bed & Breakfast, which is less of a hotel and more of a happiness cocoon.
The rooms are decorated like a chocolate box exploded—floral wallpaper, soft linens, and a kettle that’s ready for a midnight cuppa. Each room has its own quirky name, like “The Cocoa Suite” or “The Jam Jar Room.” You won’t find any generic numbers here, folks.

There’s a four-poster bed in one of the rooms that’s so comfortable you’ll want to marry it. Don’t. But you’ll be tempted.
Breakfast is the main event. It’s not just cereal and toast—oh no. Millie’s serves a full English fry-up with bacon that crunches when you bite it, perfectly poached eggs, and toast smothered in homemade marmalade.
Oh, and did I mention the chocolate? They bring you a tiny bowl of house-made chocolate spread for your toast. It’s called “Millie’s Morning Miracle,” and it’s the kind of thing you’ll dream about for weeks after you leave.
How to Survive a Stay (Without Exploding)
Let’s be real: you will eat a lot. That’s not negotiable. But here’s a pro tip: pace yourself. Try the cream tea first, then raid the chocolate shop, and save the cooked breakfast for your last day.
Also, bring stretchy pants. I’m not kidding. This is a no-judgment zone for elastic waistbands.
If you need a break from all the eating, there’s a lovely garden out back. It’s filled with roses, bees doing their thing, and little nooks where you can read a book or just stare at a cloud and think about how life could always smell like chocolate.
