I am very sceptical of reviews so did not read those on the site, but now that we have enjoyed two nights at Chestnuts, we can endorse all the excellent comments. First class experience.

Very nice stay at the Chestnuts with the most superb breakfast. Rooms modern and well appointed - though perhaps rather small. Hospitality was great and the provenance of each item on the breakfast menu was amazing. Location was quiet - which is what we wanted. Would happily return!

Our second stay at the wonderful Chestnuts and, again, it was exceptional. David & Kelly could not have been more helpful and accommodating. We absolutely loved our sanctuary at the end of a long & busy day showjumping. The delicious home cooked breakfasts were a fabulous start to the day and Kelly’s amazing home made cakes were very welcome too. We cannot rate The Chestnuts highly enough! Exceptional in every way. We are looking forward to our next visit.

Thank you for a lovely stay and making us feel welcome. The property was immaculately clean and decorated to a high standard. Great toiletries for us to use and teas, coffee filtered water. Even a dog hamper and umbrella everything you could need.The personal touches of home baked cakes always made us smile and felt like home from home. We were amazed by such a delicious homemade breakfast. Everything is made with love here. The food is incredible. We were made to feel so relaxed Kelly and David are really welcoming and pay such attention to you. Lovely gardens and walks to explore can't wait to come back. Chris, Rachel and spot

It was a real pleasure to stay in Kelly and David’s delightful B&B on our way down south from the Yorkshire Dales. The room was every bit as beautifully furnished as the website suggested. Very comfy bed and sofas, large TV screen, lovely en suite shower room and all the little extras you could wish for. Delicious cake and flapjack on the well stocked tea tray. Breakfast was superb, huge choice, all home made and locally sourced produce - pineapple and pink peppercorn jam ! - along with 4 other flavours. Breakfast taken in the main house with a chance to chat to David about its history. We shall certainly stay here again if we can.

Hospitality at its best! Kelly and David are wonderfully warm and welcoming hosts who go the extra mile to make the stay a memorable one. Our room was very well appointed (brownies and flapjack on arrival!), the bed immensely comfortable, a choice of sofas and the breakfast delicious! This really is a five star B&B, I’d give it 6 if that were an option!

This is the second occasion we have had the pleasure of staying at Chestnuts Country House. The hosts Kelly and David are so warm and welcoming it’s like being greeted by old friends on your arrival. The accommodation is always immaculately presented and very comfortable, with everything you could possibly need. Kelly and David along with the little extra touches they provide are what make your stay so special! When you arrive in your room Kelly has a slice of her home made cake awaiting you (lemon drizzle this time mmm!) Then to my great delight some of her delicious flapjack. Breakfast is always a treat with various homemade breads toasted, homemade preserves, yoghurt, syrups and sauces, all described by David, which makes you want to try everything and nothing disappoints. The cooked breakfast Kelly produces is second to none and is a must. Fantastic hosts and accommodation, which we can’t recommend highly enough. We will definitely be back again in the very near future. Thanks Kelly and David for another wonderful stay!

What lovely hosts! So glad to have been totally spoilt by David and Kelly at The Chesnuts. Delicious breakfasts with homemade jams and compote……. Immaculate and spacious room which was very cosy in chilly February. Friendly advice on where to visit…….we enjoyed Clumber Park, Belvoir Castle, Rutland Water and stunning Lincoln……..not forgetting The Workhouse NT which was really interesting. Missing your scrummy cakes Kelly! A delight!

We absolutely loved our stay at the Chestnuts Country House. Kelly and David are so welcoming and the accommodation is incredibly luxurious. The breakfast was amazing, with three courses and all served by David, who talked us through all the home made produce, which Kelly makes - jams, marmalade, bread - to name just a few. This is the best guest experience we have ever had and we will definitely be back. On arrival there was home-made cake and every small detail had been considered in the room, including dog towels for our little pup Barny! We recommend to anyone who wants a real treat as this stay is an experience not just somewhere to stay. Thank you David and Kelly!

My partner and I were lucky enough to stay at Chestnuts last weekend. It was by far the best hotel experience I’ve ever had – and I travel extensively for business and holidays. David, our host, welcomed us at our car (he happened to be outside already) and addressed me by name (that was my first clue that this might be more than your average boutique B&B). The room was amazing – spacious and stylishly converted from the original stables. Comfortable 4-poster bed, all very cozy and warm as it was chilly that weekend with frost on the ground. Plenty of sockets, all of which have USB charging sockets. Premium tea and coffee making facilities, and freshly baked cake provided each day. There’s WiFi access provided and Chestnuts has fiber to the home connected so speeds are no issue. It’s a lovely location generally – generous grounds and well maintained gardens. Basically it’s a really peaceful place to spend some time. And wonderful dark skies if you like your star gazing. Then came the real star of our stay – breakfast! Home made breads of different kinds, home made jams and preserves, each with a brief description from David. And a fabulous English breakfast that set me up for the whole day! The bacon, sausage and black pudding were all top quality, locally sourced and perfectly cooked. Day 2 I tried the Kejriwal - an Indian breakfast dish of spiced melted cheese, tomatoes bacon and fried egg on toast. OMG it was awesome! People often use the phrase “I couldn’t fault it” but this wasn’t about looking for faults, it was more about appreciating the enthusiasm and dedication to the art of hospitality that Kelly and David show during every moment of the stay. If you have any opportunity to stay at Chestnuts then I strongly recommend you just do it!

The Chestnuts was a real find. This was a work trip, so the location was dictated by that. However, we felt so welcome and comfortable and Jilly our greyhound also felt like a VIP. The room is lovely but the highlight was the wonderful breakfast. Kelly provided us with the most amazing vegan options, porridge, cherry compote, home-made breads, jams, and even baked beans !! in the most beautiful setting. 100% recommend and definitely hope to be back, thank you. We also found a nice dog friendly place to eat in the evening but do ring ahead to check.

Second visit in the lovely facility and hospitality in Chestnut Country house, it was my partners birthday and he wanted to go back to this spot, we enjoyed it first time 8 months ago, and again was lovely to be back. The hospitality, room, food was exceptional and we just didn't wanna leave. We had a lovely cake waiting for us in the bedroom, the owners went out of their way to prepare us most amazing dinner in a private room, the little details, roses on the table, question cards whilst we waited for food, lit lights, music was just so thoughtful. My partner enjoyed his birthday a lot, and we would choose this place over any places. We already look forward to be back again and enjoy the beautiful scenery and cosy room. Thank you!

The Chestnuts definitely deserves all the five star reviews. The bedroom was immaculate and very well equipped, they've thought of everything. The breakfast was superb, so much choice. We stayed for a couple of nights whilst going to cricket at Trent Bridge, and hope to return to the Chestnuts next summer when we can sit outside of an evening and hopefully play croquet. Wonderful accommodation in a lovely setting.

We once again have to mention the superb cake and flapjack that is in the room on arrival. The grounds are wonderful to sit in with the extensive lawns and a game of croquet was thoroughly enjoyed. All of this is matched by the superb attention to detail at breakfast which is faultlessly cooked and presented with so many homemade products on offer together with the best of local produce. All of this is topped off by the owners who could not be more friendly and welcoming making you feel so comfortable and relaxed.

So quiet and peaceful just sitting on the lawn under the apple trees having a glass or two watching the sun go down. Beautiful walk around the grounds before the most amazing breakfast.

We are travelling through England from south to north and have stayed in 6 different B&B’s. There is no doubt that the Chestnut Country House is the best by far. It’s the people that make the difference and it so happens that David is the perfect host and Kelly is a superb cook that surprises her guests with different cakes in the room every day, a breakfast menu that is larger than some dinner menu’s in restaurants and when you have dinner she makes a delicious three course meal. David makes very sure all these meals and dishes are served in such a way you feel very much at home and welcome and nothing seems too much. When we were there it seemed it was just about possible to have breakfast outside and David insisted we waited 5 minutes so he could move everything from the breakfast room to the most lovely spot in the garden! A feast! And besides the perfect hosts the rooms are excellent, specious, clean, everything is there, direct excess to a large garden, parking around the corner, quiet and lots to do and see in the vicinity. We will be there in a few days again and we can’t wait!

Possibly the best B&B we’ve ever stayed at and definitely the best cooked breakfast I’ve ever had! David and Kelly’s philosophy is ‘what would we want if we were staying somewhere?’ - and that’s what they deliver. You get a very comfortable room with a super-comfortable bed, a sofa to sit on, two slices of home-baked cake, home-made flapjack, a fridge with fresh milk (none of that UHT rubbish, thank goodness) and assorted teas and coffee. A good shower and nice thick towels. Two umbrellas in case it’s wet when you’re en route to breakfast (the bedrooms are in the stable block apart from the main house). The large garden and surrounding fields are beautiful. Breakfast is fantastic - outside if it’s sunny (which it was for us). There’s home made compote and yogurt. Lovely fluffy pancakes. They’ve sourced the best bacon, sausages and black pudding they can find (sometimes made to their own specification) and made their own sauces to accompany them. All the bread, jams and marmalades are home-made and delicious. Just wow! And David and Kelly are so friendly. What more could you want?

Beautifully furnished, from the wonderfully comfortable four poster bed and the two luxurious sofas to the soft lighting, feather filled cushions and the dyson fan- everything was excellent quality. The bathroom was again immaculate, with ample soft white towels and quality toiletries too. The little touches like the welcome tray with homemade cake, and delicious flapjacks on the teatray, the umbrellas for rainy days, the soft, white dressing gowns and fresh milk in the fridge were all just wonderful. The front lawn with comfy wooden table and chairs is a quiet, relaxing area to sit, surrounded by beautiful trees, flowers and nature. We enjoyed a few games of croquet (once David had explained the rules) and he was also kind enough to show us another game called 'cubs' which we throughly enjoyed, we felt very much at home. Breakfast! Well breakfast isn't just breakfast, it's a joyful experience. The room is full of interest, and the table is set uniquely. We loved the question cards, I loved the little weights that sat on top of them each morning, especially Winston- delightful! The food was five star quality. Its made with love. Almost everything was homemade, the breads and jams were truly scrumptious. We were made to feel very relaxed and welcome. Nothing was too much trouble, (after ordering decaff tea for breakfast, David bought some decaff teabags over to our room, little touches like that are everything.) The chestnuts feels like home, whilst feeling like you're miles from anywhere- somewhere very special. We left feeling relaxed, rested, happy and content. On our departure we were given some delectable homemade chocolates as a thankyou for staying-.another lovely touch. Our hosts David and Kelly were friendly, genuine, kind, warm and welcoming. They have the perfect balance in hosting. They endeavour to ensure you are happy and have everything you need- perfect! We would love to stay again.

David and Kelly you were a joy! Thank you so much for being so hospitable during our stay with you - we enjoyed every moment. Great room, grounds and location plus the English breakfast is honestly one of the best we’ve ever had - all homemade too which we were not expecting! We’ll definitely be back in the near future, keep doing what you’re doing!

John and I were looking for comfort, relaxation and a little pampering; just a couple of nights away to rest and recharge. The Chestnuts was just what we needed. A perfect stay from beginning to end. David and Kelly are wonderful hosts, the room was so comfortable, the food was amazing. We had an afternoon tea on arrival which was absolutely delicious. Every little detail has been thought of down to the toiletries and the quiz cards at breakfast. Oh the breakfast!!! 😊 Come and see for yourself, you won’t be disappointed; the home made jam selection alone is worth the journey. We will definitely be back.

What a fantastic place! We loved everything about it. The hosts Kelly and David are charming and attentive without being obtrusive. The room was gorgeous and spotlessly clean and the grounds are beautiful. We added dinner to our overnight booking and it was sensational. Every course was delicious and accompanied by the most delicious home made bread. We loved the dining room, the ambient music and fragrance and particularly liked the little quiz cards. All rounded off by the most impressive quality breakfast. We wish them all the very best with their venture. They deserve to succeed.

This is the best B&B I have ever stayed in. Everything was perfect down to the minor details. Cake on arrival was yummy, the flapjack was amazing, the bed was incredibly comfortable and the bedding itself was that soft and comfy I have been out and bought the same! Hosts were brilliant and the breakfast was amazing ! Will highly recommend to everyone!

What a wonderful place to stay if you’re looking for total relaxation, comfort and hospitality. We received a warm welcome from Kelly upon arrival. We stayed for one night in The Coach House and can’t commend it highly enough. From its ambience, cleanliness, beautiful comfy bed and tasteful furnishings, we were assured of a relaxing night. The attention to detail, from the fresh vase of roses, the delicious cakes and the jar of dog biscuits and blankets for our dog, were greatly appreciated. At breakfast, we received a friendly welcome from David. We were offered an eclectic selection from a varied menu, all freshly prepared by Kelly. We thoroughly enjoyed home baked bread and a delicious selection of jams and sauces. We can’t recommend The Chestnuts highly enough and hope to return very soon.

The stay at The Chestnuts Country House was fabulous. It started with a warm welcome in a beautiful setting. The pub in the nearby town was quaint, delicious and very friendly. THE BREAKFAST was fantastic. Homemade and wonderful and I have to mention the English muffins were one of a kind and fresh. The history of the location was very interesting and a delight to hear about. Thank you Kelly and David! Please start teaching how to make that amazing bread. I would love to come back and bring family!

Amazing BnB, beautiful room with comfy bed and top quality furniture. Lovely homemade cake and probably the best flapjack I've ever had in our room. Very quiet location perfect for us and our dog. EV charging available using a 3 pin plug, pulling about 2kw. The breakfast was incredible, so much homemade, jams bread etc and meat from the local butcher. Would definitely recommend.

We really enjoyed our stay here – the accommodation is luxurious, clean and comfortable and situated in a relaxed, beautiful setting. David and Kelly are welcoming hosts, and we spent a lovely weekend walking in the local countryside, admiring carpets of snowdrops in the February sunshine. The real highlight of this place is Kelly’s cooking – home-baked treats left in our room each day, a breakfast menu jam-packed with freshly-made goodies, and I recommend booking a home-cooked, 3-course supper if you have an evening to spare, you won’t regret it!

I cannot express how wonderful the experience I had at Kelly and David’s beautiful boutique B&B, which I think they are too humble to call it that because it is more than a Small Luxury Hotel. I think The Chestnuts’ secret is the attention to detail and Kelly & David’s aim to make it an exceptional and personal stay for their guest. We had to arrive late around 11pm, which Kelly was kind enough to message me a photo of the room with lights on, welcomed us in person when we parked and showed us the charging station for our EV. We felt so welcomed. The Chestnuts is 5-star when it comes to quality and detail. Once in the room, we were greeted by fresh flowers and some freshly homemade cakes and tea; The room was already warmed up and is sparkling clean, not to mention beautiful; The towels are wonderfully bouncy and extra soft to the skin; There were two different firmness of pillows in the bed; Come breakfast both Kelly and David greeted us with warm welcome and all freshly homemade goodies (bread, jams, compote, you name it). I will give more than 5 stars if I could! It is simply a Small Luxury Hotel to make a special trip for.

EVERYTHING about our one night 'stopover' stay was excellent. Our room was equipped, cleaned and furnished to a very high standard. There was nothing not to like! Homemade and locally sourced ingredients at breakfast, homemade cake and flapjack in our room upon arrival. Venue is superb, hosts are equally so; they thought of everything and much more. A rare opportunity to stay somewhere that meets all your wildest hopes of all a B&B can be and exceeds all your expectations. Don't bother looking anywhere else, just book! We will definitely use again.

My boyfriend and I recently stayed at the Chestnuts Country House and it was absolutely incredible! Every element has been meticulously designed with a keen eye for detail. From the beautiful decor to the welcome treats (Kelly’s homemade chocolates were to die for!), nothing was short of amazing. Both Kelly and David were lovely, we couldn’t have wished for nicer hosts. They have gone above and beyond to create the ideal location for anyone to come and take a moment to relax from all the stresses of day-to-day life. After having read many reviews about the breakfast, it’s safe to say our expectations were pretty high but it was even better than we could have imagined. Almost everything was homemade, and of course, incredible. We couldn’t have asked for more from our stay at The Chestnuts Country House - one night was not enough and we will definitely be returning again soon! Thanks for having us, Kelly and David.

Our second visit to Chestnuts this year. The setting is so lovely and peaceful being located in a tiny village. Our comfortable room had every amenity we needed and more besides. A lovely touch of a tea tray complete with chocolate cake welcomed us (along with David!) on arrival. The room was lovely and warm. Breakfast was amazing and served in front of a lovely log fire. We would love to return next year.

Such amazing and perfect hospitality, We have not been made to feel as welcome, anywhere on our travels to this standard, in a very long time.

We stayed a few weeks ago with our friends and found the stay outstanding!! David and Kelly cooked us a lovely meal in a beautiful dining room. They are both impeccable hosts. I have to eat a gluten free diet and I have never been in an establishment that catered so well for me. I really appreciated the effort Kelly had taken in providing home made' treats' alongside serving me specially prepared gluten free choices. The accommodation is second to none with lots of little touches to make this truly five star. Thank you Kelly and David, we loved our stay and certainly will be back!.
