Bed and Breakfasts are small, owner-operated businesses. Typically, they include three to fifteen guestrooms. Small hotels and inns may have more than fifteen rooms and often have a restaurant that offers dinner as well as breakfast. The small size of these establishments allows guests to receive generous hospitality and personal attention. In order to be recognised for inclusion in the National Trusts Guide, an establishment must be at least 50 years old and have retained the integrity of its original architecture and craftsmanship.
