The Bench Mark used to offer comfortable accommodation in a beautiful part of the West Midlands, right on the border with Wales, which made it ideal for walking (right on the Offa’s Dyke path), cycling, driving or just mooching about.

However, after nine years of making beds and cooking breakfasts the host, Adam Watson has thrown in the towel. The house is still comfortable and centrally heated throughout, with no TV making for a peaceful and relaxed atmosphere – it just doesn’t have any guests any more 🙂
