Carlton Corner Bed and Breakfast

Beautiful and quiet place, the room is big enough and it's very clean. Definitely worth mentioning is the super breakfast!

From the moment we arrived at Carlton Corner we felt both completely at home but also like we were going to be treated like royalty, which indeed was the case! Jay greeted us with the warmest of welcomes, apologising immediately for the fact that she couldn’t shake our hands or help us with luggage etc because of the current precautions we are all subject to, but none of that made any difference – the measures she and Dave had taken to keep guests safe in no way got in the way of us feeling completely relaxed and like we were on a truly luxury break away. We had booked the beautiful Garden Room with its own patio overlooking the gorgeous English countryside, where we enjoyed breakfast both mornings and a takeaway dinner too on our second night! The room was beautifully appointed, with the most sleep-inducing bedding and mattress that made it quite hard to get up in the mornings, and a fabulous modern bathroom with high end toiletries and extra fluffy giant white towels. Breakfast was a choice of everything from Full English (including a vegetarian option) to Continental and everything in between (including pancakes!), along with toast and fresh tea or coffee and juice. And again, despite the somewhat unique circumstances currently, the service was first class and nothing was too much trouble. The house is situated in the heart of Kibworth Harcourt and is a less than 5 minute walk to the Award Winning Boboli Restaurant, as well as a couple of pubs, and then there are also the many lovely boutiques and shops in the village of Kibworth Beauchamp a short car ride away. It’s the perfect spot to base yourself to explore the local area or simply to chill for a few nights. Overall Carlton Corner feels like a true passion project, and it’s a place we will be returning to many times I am sure. In fact I have already booked our next stay in September!! Who needs Spain and Portugal when you have places like this in your own “backyard”?!
