Broome Park B&B - it was time for a refresh!
We always say if it isn’t broken, don’t fix it. But we also know it’s important to not rest on our laurels. Somewhere in the middle of these two sayings, came the decision to refresh the Broome Park B&B appearance.

Deli Platters
Why not book a tasty deli platter for when you arrive rather than a full evening meal?

Ethical, Responsible and Sustainable Tourism
This year we decided to enter the Ethical, Sustainable and Responsible Business category inthe West Midlands Tourism Awards and are thrilled to have been shortlisted! We are 1 of 3 finalists and the winner will be announced at an event in the Spring.
We have always tried to be ethical and sustainable in our lives as well as our business, farming requires you to take care of the land and natural resources and this has carried over into our B&B and home lives. Or first investment was in a thermal solar panel hot water system, this has been running for over 15 years now, supplying all our hot water through the summer. Next we installed an array of 40 PV solar panels on one of the shed roofs, these havebattery storage which ensures we maximise the solar gain for our home. Late last year we installed a Zappi EV charger and this is available for guests as well as our own use.
Elsewhere I have changed to ethical cleaning products, all bought in bulk to minimise packaging and also refillable dispensers in the guest bathrooms for toiletries. Lightbulbs have been replaced to be LED and all radiators have thermostats to make sure only rooms in use are heated.
We grow much of our own food - our own pigs for sausages and bacon, farm fresh eggs, home pressed apple juice, fruit and vegetables from the garden and buy locally where possible.

The Story of our Bedroom Furniture
We are very lucky to have some wonderful antique pieces of furniture in the B&B and all have a personal story so I thought I might share some of them with you. The bedroom suite in the Red room has personal significance - here is the story behind it!
