We’re casting for a new series of Channel 4’s popular ‘Four in a Bed’, celebrating the great Bed and Breakfasts and small hotels around the UK. Whether it be their five glowing stars or the quirky and unusual approach that the owners deem their unique selling point, the programme will look at the huge variety of accommodation providers around the country.
We are looking for enthusiastic and proud owners who feel that their business stands out from the competition and has something special to offer for the price that visitors are charged.
This series will now not only feature a wide range of B&Bs but also small hotels. They’ll all be run by owners who are deeply committed to their business and can explain in a lively and engaging way why their place, and the area in which it’s located, is so good to visit.
Each week, four places will compete against one another to be crowned that week’s best B&B or small hotel… and the judges of the competition will be the owners themselves – as they will each visit one another’s properties.
This is a potentially brilliant opportunity for owners to showcase their business on national television and highlight why customers should flock to visit them. We hope the programme will continue to encourage viewers to choose independently run places to stay in, rather than the larger chain operations.
Anyone who is interested should email us at fourinabed@studiolambert.com

The Swiss Cottage Bed and Breakfast is exclusively for Non Smokers

Law Change: Smoke Free UK: [Ireland, Scotland, Wales and England] What does it mean?
How does it deal with smokers?
Ireland became the first country in the world to ban smoking in public places [2004] followed by Scotland [2006], Wales April 2007 and in July 2007 Law on Smoking in Public Places in UK . The law [all UK countries are similar in wording] allows owners of accommodation to decide whether the accommodation has provision for smokers. Guest rooms can be allocated for smokers where they may smoke. The room’s ventilation system must not allow smoke to enter the building in any way, not into hallways or public areas, but instead, be vented out into the open air. Accommodation providers may state that no rooms are allocated for smokers but will allow smokers to sleep in the rooms and going outside the building to designated smoking areas. The details are similar in all other UK countries.
Accommodation providers can however designate the whole building and grounds just for non-smokers.
What is ‘Exclusively Non-Smokers’? and how can we get across that accommodation including, hotels, guesthouses and B&Bs, etc. are for non-smokers only?

For example, meet up around 12 noon and have a coffee, and plan a menu. Off to market to get the ingredients, then back to your or my venue. Spend two or three hours preparation. A break to scrub up and then we cook and serve your guests.
It’s light hearted, a lot of fun and every one that I have done has encouraged the student to cook the dishes for themselves within the next week!
