What makes a good bed and breakfast? 10 tips for running a successful B&B


When I was setting up my own bed and breakfast, my focus was very much on those added extras that would turn it into something special; the very expensive welsh blanket, the eggs benedict at breakfast and the huge brass bed to name just a few.


And if you want to create a B&B that stands out from the competition, all of those are important.
