Fairfield House

Wow I must admit to thinking so many excellent reviews meant his was probably a special B&B and they were all correct. This is a large Victorian house on the edge of Warkworth. It has ample off street parking at the front and a stunning terraced garden with a pond at the rear. You enter through a large conservatory with lovely large geraniums, in flower when we visited. The ground floor has a large guests lounge and a dining room plus outside a covered seating area to enjoy the garden. Our room , Morris room, was on the first floor up a large and in imposing staircase. It was spacious with a large double bed, chairs, wardrobe and drink making facilities. Through a door was the en-suite with shower over the bath. The whole place oozed elegance and luxury. To continue with the excellence there were freshly baked cakes in the hall. Breakfast was served in the dining room and you put your order in for the cooked part the night before. On the first morning we both had smashed avocado with small sweet chillies, roast tomatoes and lime. It came with a poached egg but we did not have this. On the second morning we had French toast with compote and maple syrup. Both days the breakfasts were tasty, ample and luxurious. The hosts Mandy and her partner were friendly helpful and made sure we had a comfortable stay with everything we wished for.
