Guest Reviews
- Robbani (7/5): Lovely hostess, kind and warm service. Cannot wait to revisit - Location is a Massive Plus. Right by the Sea and plenty to do just walk away from the location. Restaurants seconds away, leisure centre minutes away, loads of gaming and family activities around the area. Room was nice and cozy. Door requires power lifter to open swiftly. Window View of from the room not desired. Small. Despite these. Would come here again?

It was well placed for all the local amenities, but set back from the busier road. Parking was easy. Breakfast was lovely. The couple who run it are very friendly and helpful. There is nothing negative I could say about this brilliant property.

- lisa (10/5): - The room was amazing.
The location was amazing
Donna and her husband were so lovely.
The breakfast was so nice and delicious
- Emma (10/5): Attentive and super kind hosts with an exceptionally neat and tidy house. - It was clean everywhere, including the front garden, and all the fittings were sympathetic with the style of the original house. The room provisions were great - we really savoured our hot chocolate after a long day walking and getting wet! We liked the 'courtyard' with its roof of passionflower, that we looked down onto. Even having our own bathroom slightly down the hall didn't bother us; it was neat and the shower gave good power and heat. The beds were narrow but really comfortable- I often get a bad back and the mattress supported me very well. Nothing, really. Maybe one thing - the bacon would have been better if it had had more fat that had been crisped up.
- Tina (10/5): Exceptional - Hosts could not do enough for us,everything was clean and spotless,great location opposite the beach and plenty of parking.we stayed in the family room,the decor was excellent and we also had a balcony,breakfast was hot and fresh and plenty of choices, I would highly recommend this guest house. Nothing.
