The owner is so wonderful and kind hearted. I could not use her facility due to a mistake on my part but she politely made me feel so at ease.
I will recommend her facility to anyone that wants a peaceful and wonderful guest house owner to have a good rest.

Really gorgeous rooms. Comfortable and clean. Bathrooms are modern . Enough space for 2 people for a short stay. Beds are super comfy. The owner is such a lovely lady too! She also provided cereal for breakfast and fresh milk. Would 100% recommend. Location is amazing 3 minute walk from the beach. Value for money is amazing can’t get any better than this!

Location was good - 5 mins from the seafront, and friendly owner
Tiny room with no wardrobe to hang clothes or place to keep luggage; no breakfast provided apart from cereal boxes which for £90 a night seems poor value for money. Fresh towels were not provided the next day. Also the owner had a dog which meant the communal areas smelt of that (luckily not the room).

The property was easy to locate and just minutes away from the beach. The room was incredibly clean with sufficient consumables like tea, coffee, fresh milk and cereals. Worth the money paid!

The location of the B&B was ideal for the beach, town centre and rail links. The room was a great size - very comfy and exceptionally clean.
Also the bed was huge and extremely comfortable (great mattress!), and the landlady wonderfully friendly and helpful.
I would definitely stay again and fully recommend it to others. Thank you, Carol! 😊
My only concern was that the shower wasn't ensuite, however this wasn't an issue as it was very clean and close to my room, and the property overall was faultless.

Lovely lady who runs the guest house. Everything was very clean and comfortable for our family. It was quite in the house at night time. Beach was 3 minutes walk and so were all the shops and take away’s.
