    Great location, within walking distance of the seafront and shops. Lovely guest house with great hosts. The chocolate hanging on the door at night was really thoughtful and a great sweet treat when you returned in the evening. Breakfast was great and sets you up for the day. Will definitely return in the future. On the morning we checked out, Sharon and Mark gave us a goodie bag with some snacks and bottled water for the journey home. This was so nice of them and we really appreciated it.

    Room 18 was great, quiet and spaces. Both Andrew and Angie were great hosts and made our stay enjoyable. The breakfast is one of the best we have had at a guest house. Fresh and good selection. The waiting staff were friendly and provided a good service. We enjoyed our stay very much and will be returning next year!
