We stayed at the Overstream for three nights in April. The guesthouse is run by Neil and Maggie, a very friendly couple who were knowledgeable on the local area and quick to provide maps and suggested walking routes.  Our room was large with ensuite including a shower; the decor was basic but comfortable none the less and free wifi was...

Our room was spacious and spotless. Any concerns about it being at the top of the... More

A welcoming, comfortable, homely hotel that I would like to return to. Proprietors NIck and Maggie are doing a great job here - very professional and also very kind and genuine. Breakfasts were terrific and the packed lunches excellent (especially the home-baked "surprise" each day). The room was spacious with two big windows and a nice view over thatched village... More
