Howdale

The breakfast was first class, just what you need to start the day and horses was brilliant

Was on the top floor, but that’s not the properties fault I should’ve booked earlier

The Location, the food, the cleanliness, but most of all Louisa the Landlady with how friendly, helpful and caring that she is

Probably if I had to say something, it would be the amount of stairs that you have to go up to get to the 4th floor, but then it's not their fault I have bad knees. But Louisa did call us before she took any money to see if we'd be OK on the 4th floor. It was me that decided to go for it. But it was worth it

Everything. FABULOUS

NOTHING

Travelled here for a few nights and picked Howdale for it's great location Situated 2mins from all the North Bay attractions, and being elevated from the promenade means it has great views. Although on the upper road, all the paths to it are relatively gentle, and give easy access for pretty much anyone The B&B is set over 4 floors with only stairs access. Louisa gave us a phonecall in advance to let us know this, incase we had mobility issues, and to confirm that our twin room selection was correct, before she put final confirmation and took money for the booking. Our 4th floor twin room was fairly small but the beds were decent sized singles. The room was en-suite. Cozy and perfect for a comfortable night. A TV, free fast WiFi and plenty sockets in the room mean it is well suited to the modern requirements. Our rear facing room gave us great views over the town & beautiful countryside Breakfast is taken in a front facing room with great views towards the North Bay and Castle. Breakfast choice was good, full English, cereal, yogurt etc and plenty tea, coffee+ toast too. Louisa has obviously honed her skills well and runs a slick operation Louisa is also a very affable host, who makes you feel very welcome and will help you with all your needs. Lovely personality to chat to, and takes as much time as necessary to give you the info you require On our last day, after we booked out, we were not travelling until the afternoon so Louisa gave as a place to store our bags and an outside key that let us collect them when we were ready to move on. Howdale B&B has a character that is in keeping with a British seaside town. It retains the look of its era, but had been brought up to date to suit modern life requirements. Not a swanky London affair, but nice, immaculately clean, well presented and friendly. Perfect for a relaxing seaside stay. We will use Howdale again in the future

Room was fairly small...but very comfortable, en-suite, fast wifi & great views - perfect for a relaxing stay

The landlady was very good Breakfast was great

Nothing it's was fine

everything about 4 days met with our expections

nothing

The breakfast was very generous and freshly cooked to order each morning. Excellent if you like large portions. Our room was clean and tidy and had a great view from the 4th floor - the stairs were a workout but we were warned and do not criticise this aspect.

Only thing we found a little awkward was having to sit on designated tables for breakfast. Appreciate the need to keep everything organised, but sitting directly next to people we didn't know whilst trying to talk about our plans etc was slightly awkward. The bed was very firm.

Excellent beds and Excellent Breakfast
