Ivy-clad 'Number 29' might only be five minutes walk from the centre of the Somerset market town of Yeovil but, thanks to its position in the heart of a conservation area and with gorgeous views over the pretty Victorian Gardens opposite, it feels very much like a country bolthole. It's heaven for new parents in need of a bit of rural rejuvenation but with the luxury of a choice of great restaurants within 5-10mins walk and a qualified nanny onsite and available for evening and morning lie-in babysitting, all at about a quarter of the price of a typical country house hotel stay.
'Number 29' has three king-size ensuite bedrooms all with room for a cot but the largest of the three, the Blue Room also has room for a campbed for a toddler and boasts a gorgeous bathroom with romantic double-ended bath. The guest lounge has huge dining table where owner Anglea serves up delicious home-made breakfasts of fresh local produce and similarly wholesome kids high teas - usually accompanied by crayons and colouring sheets! It also houses a microwave for parents to warm babies food and sterilise bottles. When not taking advantage of the babysitting service, parents often use their baby monitors in the dining room for evening meals (requested in advance) or takeaways.
For more glamorous nights out, Angela's a font of knowledge on the local restaurant scene having managed one of the best in the area and has negotiated a brilliant 3-courses with wine for £20 deal for her guests there. Her daughter Lucy is a newly qualified (Diploma in Cache Childcare) nanny and popular with parents and their off spring for her evening and morning lie-in babysitting service.
Please note there is an extra charge for cots and added toddler beds which can be selected from the options and extras form when booking.
There's very little need to use a car whilst staying at Number 29 thanks it is lovely setting in a conservation area with a beautiful park opposite, plus its just three minutes walk into Yeovil town Centre with its shops, excellent restaurants, cinema, bowling complex, banks and Post Office. Owner, Angela, is happy to provide afternoon tea trays to be taken to the park for picnics on dry and sunny days.
Other very local attractions are Ninesprings Country Park, Hamhill Country Park, Jungle Jungle Soft play Goldenstone Swimming Pool and the local mutiplex cinema.
Yeovil enjoys an ideal position midway between the North Devon and Dorset coastline with Lyme Regis and Weymouth both being only around 30 minutes away. For less sunny days, the wildlife park and indoor play centre at Cricket St. Thomas (approx.20-30mins), Tutankhamun Exhibition & shopping in Dorchester, Monkey World in Poole and the Fleet Air Museum (might be better for older ones) make for good days out.

A great stay! Nothing was too much trouble for owner, Angela, who is a brilliant cook (we recommend her dinners and breakfast was a fab way to start to each day), and wonderful hostess. Room was spacious and our 4-month old enjoyed splashing in the roll-top bath.

Parents choose Number 29 because I offer a full package whereby I have lovely en-suite bedrooms indivually decorated, most baby equipment, in house dinners, microwave, fridge, babysittings and most of all a very relaxed atmosphere.

First and foremost the B&B was a family home before it was a business.
