This 4-star guest house offers a housekeeping service, private check-in and check-out and free WiFi.

Really clean and good attention to detail with decor- with pictures of the local area everywhere (which is particularly nice if you’re interested in the history of Brighton). Well laundered bedding and exceptional cleanliness.. The hosts were extremely welcoming, kind and friendly! As a solo female traveller I felt really safe so would highly recommend if you’re a female on your own! Have stayed in a lot of similar hotels but this was a really extra positive experience. Comfortable single bed, very large and the room was quiet. The hotel is just enough outside town to not hear the noise but close enough to walk everywhere. Made to order breakfast as well, really delicious! Would recommend on the hosts friendliness alone! Top notch experience and throughout. 5 star review from me!
