    The stairs was quite a challenge, when carrying my heavy luggage up to my room. The fact that the place close at 20:00 makes it difficult when one does encounter car issues along the the road.

    Breakfast was very nice thanks you. C view was also good.

    Not a problem as such, but the only issue I had was that the main room door and the bathroom door squeaked when opened which I was so conscious of when using the bathroom in the middle of the night. I was going to mention it but forgot.

    We were warmly greeted upon arrival by Bessie and her staff. The room was nicely decorated and was more than adequate for our needs. The view from our room was fantastic and the pool was sparkling. The breakfast was very tasty and enjoyed by us all.

    Nothing at all. Not the newest, fanciest property in margate. But everything is neat and clean and the staff is very friendly and helpful.

    Attention to detail and breakfast service, friendly staff and Bessie is an absolute gem of a host. We could not ask for more and the price in relation to the service is excellent. I would recommend anyone to go and stay at this family friendly guesthouse.

    We loved everything.

    The location was great - amazing sea view and very safe. There was no noise. Bessie (the host) couldn’t do enough for us, she was so helpful and her staff were always so friendly. The pool area was equipped with pool chairs, and pool towels. The breakfast is so delicious and they were very accommodating with dietary requirements. We had our room upgraded which was wonderful. We loved our stay and would definitely come back again.
