Nab Cottage is no longer a bed & breakfast
A charming Victorian farmhouse
This renovated and extended farmhouse dating from the 1850s is located on a quiet road but is within a 10 minute drive (or 30 minute walk) from the town centre and the beach.

Vegan and Organic
Nab Cottage was a vegan bed & breakfast which used organic ingredients as often as possible. The garden provided apples, pears, greengages, Victoria plums, sweet green grapes, blackberries and cherries.

Dogs welcome
Nab Cottage was dog-friendly. Ruby the golden retriever (pictured above) welcomed guests from 2019 until her death in September 2023. Then Charlie the rescued labrador took up residence from January 2024 until November 2024 when the B&B welcomed its last guests.

Eco credentials
From 2017-2018 Nab Cottage was renovated and extended using sustainable and environmentally-friendly products, such as ethically-sourced FSC timber, Steico wood fibre insulation, Earthborn chalk-based paints, and using screws instead of glue! The water is heated to 50 degrees every day by thermodynamic panels bought from Energie. Electricity and Gas are provided by Ecotricity, and the landline telephone and mobile are administered by the MidCounties Cooperative. Solar panels were installed on the back rooves in September 2023 by Nova Renewables along with a Zappi universal EV charge point (for guest use) and a Tesla Powerwall in case of power outages. Everything that can be composted goes on the compost heap, and any plastic that can't be recycled by the local Council is picked up by Abel and Cole for recycling when they deliver the shopping. At Nab Cottage organic food is favoured over anything else as it just makes more sense for the planet and to keep our gut healthy. Guest toiletries were all from the Faith in Nature range.
