The Poppy House

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.

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.

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.

Very good value. Breakfast produce locally sourced, and you can tell from the quality. Very accommodating. Had to change details numerous times including a last minute request to bring my whippet dog. All ok! My 4 year old hasn't stopped talking about how much he enjoyed staying at the Poppy House and thought the lady was very, very nice. l like having tea for breakfast but noticed the authentic red Italian coffee making machine in the corner so definitely had coffee. Lovely stay. Thanks from all of us.

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.

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.

Lovely welcome, comfortable room, but would've been perfect if we had summer duvets.

Super little b&b, really nicely furnished and super comfortable. Breakfast was excellent.

Stayed here as we were at wedding. I never sleep in other bed than my own, but omg the bed was amazing I wanted to bring bed quilt & pillows home with me best night sleep if ever had in a hotel. Room was very big clean,coffee tea in room owners were friendly.

Myself and my partner have stayed here many times over the years and I can HIGHLY recommend The Poppy house to one and all.

Here we have a tea room and an eatery that serves proper home cooked style food which includes THE best English breakfast you will find anywhere, ever! Soups, sandwiches and mains are all great quality, comfortable surroundings and friendly service from the folk who own this esteemed establishment.

The BB rooms are pleasent, well furnished, spotlessly clean and well presented. Lovely feathure duvets and pillows only improve the experience and lend to a great nights sleep.

Well done people, do keep up the good work!

Really lovely place. Great tasting breakfast and home made cake. Very friendly host. Beautiful building. First rate. 🤗

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.

Only stayed the one night, but was made to feel like I was an old friend. Room was very comfortable. If you're anywhere near Bishop's Castle I would recommend staying here.

Always an amazing service, with a great price to the quality of food that is given. Never disappointed with the quantity with such great quality of food. Thank you, recommended to everyone who visits the historical town of Bishops Castle

Very nice place to stay, it's very old house but cozy. Very friendly staff and dog friendly. Shops and restaurants 2min walk.

This is perfect for a cafe meal etc, lovely lady serving, incredibly friendly - I think the best cafe I've ever been in 👌 - hopefully will get a cake next time 👅

Fantastic, superb breakfast, super friendly host, cosy town centre location.

Good coffee, very good soup (very generous portion) with lovely bread and very reasonable prices. Good value for money. Christiaan :-) :-)

Delightful cafe, with lovely home cooked food, served by pleasant attentive staff.

Really enjoyed the bake beans, well presented on lovely wholemeal bread - just the thing for cycling
