Highlight were the hosts Jenny and Mark. Lovely couple who runs this property. Absolutely lovely people. Did everything to make our life comfortable. Veg breakfast prepared by them was too good. Mark was so kind that he not only booked a restaurant for dinner for us but also came to drop us. Great room with all the facilities. Couldn’t have asked for more

I think it's the best guest house that I've ever been. John is wonderful, everything, literally everything is oriented towards making the guest feel welcomed. Very clean, AMAZING garden, really in touch with nature (2 pet mini chickens that I loved, Hasel and Cranberrly - don't know if I spelled it correctly, squirrels, birds, lovely flowers), and still super close to the centre, to everything that You need. Great addition is the coffee and tea machine, the spotless bathroom (practical also for people with back problems like me). The room was reserved without breakfast, but the additional stuff that You can drink/eat in the morning without any supplementary cost is literally all you need in the morning. Really impressed and would love to visit again. THANK YOU, JOHN !!!

    Very good location , close to the beach and a very short walk to the shops . Check in was very easy thanks to clear information and good communication by the lovely host . The room was very clean and comfortable with a nice bathroom. Very traditional decor with a fresh feel which added to the charm .
