13 What is the difference between a Guest House and a B&B?
Chapel Guest House offers bed and breakfast accommodation, however we do understand the confusion most have, including some in the trade!
The main differences are that a Guest House usually has more facilities, is larger and usually run as a more commercialised home business. Whereas a bed and breakfast is smaller with less than 8 bed spaces and is generally 'letting' out spare rooms in their home.
Both have to adhere to the same strict health and safety aspects and the grading is carried out in the same way for both.
