B&B Brochure

The Bed & Breakfast Nationwide brochure was first printed in 1988 and featured 160 homes. This has steadily grown until there are now almost 700 B&Bs throughout England, Scotland, Wales and Ireland. The brochure is widely known as “The Little Green Book” and is highly recommended. Each B&B has a coloured photograph and description, the name, address and telephone number is printed along with e-mail and web address if available.

Brochure Cover 2012

The brochure is a FREE publication and is widely distributed throughout the world, providing guests with the security of knowing that their accommodation is with welcoming British families – many give a special welcome to guests from overseas. The brochure is also used by business travellers who are away from home overnight and need a reasonably priced, comfortable and safe place to stay – a welcome change from the “sameness” of many a hotel chain!

If you would like a copy of the brochure and are in the UK please send your name and address and 3 first class stamps to Bed and Breakfast Nationwide, PO Box 10894, Frinton on Sea, Essex, CO13 3AN and we will send a copy by return.

If sending from abroad please email us at office@bbnationwide.co.uk with your name and address. We will send a copy by return and a paypal invoice for $5.00 or €5.00 to help with postage
