How exactly does this B&B win so many awards?
Andy & Julian Banner-Price, owners of The 25 Boutique B&B said, ‘We were absolutely thrilled to hear that ‘The 25’ has been named the Best B&B in the World. We love creating special and memorable experiences for our guests and receiving their excellent reviews makes our hard work truly rewarding.’

‘We created our own ideal place to stay at The 25 and are thrilled so many people love what we do.’
Julian added, ‘At The 25 we literally took many areas of the building back to the brick and started again. It was an opportunity to make sure we did everything right: from high pressure showers to sockets in the right places, but it’s much more than that. It’s all the little touches that make us such a unique, special place to stay.’
‘That’s right’, Andy said, ‘daily home baked goodies in your room, pillow mist, mood lighting, hand written notes, Elemis toiletries, bathroom TVs, movies on demand – we’ve tried to think of everything to make a stay with us truly memorable – we’re also blessed with a fantastic location, the English Riviera is renowned for its temperate climate making it a great all year round destination. New for 2019, all six bedrooms, now have Smart features allowing the television, lighting and air conditioning to be controlled by voice as well as manually.’
The pair have a track record of success in the hospitality sector, having previously turned a failing hotel in North Wales around, which also received a top ten ranking on TripAdvisor during their tenure.
The 25 Boutique B&B has six very different bedrooms, all with cutting edge design by Andy and the latest technology by former IT Manager Julian.
