The Beeches B&B food hygiene rating

Hotel/bed & breakfast/guest house · Blaby

The Beeches B&B holds a 5, the highest food hygiene rating there is. At its last inspection the hotel met every standard the inspector checked, with nothing needing attention.

The rating: 5 - Very good

The rating dates from 10 November 2023, more than 2 years ago. A lot can change in a kitchen in that time, and a rating this old says more about the business then than now. Councils prioritise re-inspecting higher-risk premises, so a long gap often means the business is considered low-risk.

Address: 19 Billington Road East, Elmesthorpe, Leicestershire, LE9 7SB

What the inspector found

An inspection scores three things: how food is handled, the physical condition of the premises, and how much the inspector trusts management to keep standards up. At The Beeches B&B none of the three raised a concern, the overall rating is only ever as strong as its weakest area, so a clean sweep is what produces a high score.
