Such a lovely place, great food and good clean rooms. A brilliant location. You get 5 star treatment. Would totally recommend and looking forward to going back again ��
Brilliant location at the heart of Bishop's Castle, just on the edge of the Market Place. Short walk to fish & chip takeaway, Indian restaurant, Chinese takeaway, and pubs. B&B itself is very old, with lots of original and characterful features. Although breakfast advertised from 8.30am, they accommodated my earlier departure time and served me breakfast at 8am, which was much appreciated. I had smoked salmon and scrambled eggs with toast, but full English and kippers also available. Room had everything I needed and was en suite. Couldn't fault it. Plenty of free on street parking nearby, and free car parks within walking distance.
Outstanding and excellent value. Our room was spotlessly clean, with nice touches such as proper milk in the fridge (no UHT nonsense), bottles of sparking and still water on arrival (even though the water from the tap is fine to drink) and cotton buds and cotton wool balls in the bathroom. Perhaps the best breakfast I’ve had in any UK hotel, at any price. Options of kippers and smoked salmon, but the full English was a real treat, all cooked to order, so no lukewarm – or frazzled – or dry – stuff from a buffet. Our room faced towards the bell tower referred to elsewhere, but it was pretty quiet and didn’t disturb our sleep. Super friendly staff too. Nothing to criticise here.
Lovely spot really friendly and accommodating and a superb breakfast. Great place for Offas Dyke well set up for walkers and cyclists
Lovely welcome, comfortable room, but would've been perfect if we had summer duvets.

Lovely cafe, showing off the artwork of local artists on the walls. Good service, and I was able to secure my bike around the back.
Super little b&b, really nicely furnished and super comfortable. Breakfast was excellent.
Extremely comfortable & fantastic service and fab breakfasts! A shower with proper water pressure & hot water, gorgeous comfy bed, beautiful building, plus a fan, hairdryer, earplugs, tea, coffee, hot choc, fresh milk, bottled water, all laid on. Unprecedented for a British B&B (in my experience). Everything was perfect. Inexpensive too. Thank you.
We had two meals here over the course of our week long stay in Bishop's Castle. The food was yummy and the staff were helpful. Dogs are allowed in the front section of the Cafe which meant we could happily bring our dog along with us. I had the lasagne and a Small Breakfast, both were yummy and there were no complaints anywhere else on the table either. They were also perfectly fine with my son who wanted a combination of breakfast items not reflected on the menu! We would certainly go back if we were in the area again.
My husband and I have been staying here for over 10yrs. It is like a home from home. They cannot do enough for you and take pride in making your stay the best it can possibly be. The rooms are spacious and clean. The pillows never fail to give me the best nights sleep. Breakfast is generous and all locally sourced. Simply delicious. If anyone was to say disappointing they simply did not stay here.
We visited Bishops Castle for a wedding 15th-17th July and chose to stay at The Poppy House. We needed an early check in which was prior agreed without issue, we arrived earlier than arrived and the room was already for us, taking the stress out of getting ready and to the wedding venue on time. The room was clean with a large comfy bed and we felt that nothing was too much trouble. The breakfast was delicious both mornings. Thank you for a lovely stay.
