    The guest house itself is a lovely, boutique space above a garden cafe. Beautifully decorated in a kind of retro way, while also having very modern facilities like the bathroom. Staff very happy to help, which made my stay so much easier. The location is buzzing in the centre of town, with a host of great places to eat and drink nearby (and downstairs).

    Charming, FRAGRANT (gentle Jo Malone diffusion in reception!), super-clean, well appointed and chic little boutique guest house. Absolutely first rate. Steve was delightful and super-knowledgeable and helpful as host. Room was gorgeous and well designed, with lovely, top-notch REN toiletries and DeLonghi tea and coffee-making facilities (chocolate and lovely biscuits a most welcome touch). Brilliant location, sea and excellent breakfast location at either end of the quiet, pretty road.

    The guest house is a great location near to the pier. The room was clean and tidy. tea and coffee were provided there was a fan in the room which was really needed! Plenty of hangers for clothes. I shared with my sister (no twin rooms) and the double bed was comfy and big enough. plenty of power sockets. Rick was a great host and very accommodating.
