Great location, cute decor, lovely breakfast, friendly staff
Could’ve used a fan in the bedroom as it was a little warmer than I’d like at night

Lovely guesthouse with perfect location and street parking with night security guard. Yummy breakfast. Nice courtyards to sit in. Very efficient laundry service. The staff was lovely and helpful, and Abby the beagle going around was a great plus :)

We loved our stay. Everyone was very welcoming, we received recommendations for restaurants and staff also helped us book a tour to sandwich harbour.
Breakfast was done in very cozy way (i loved the big pot of tea and super tasty bread). Location was very central and it also offered parking.
The bed was super squeeky ? otherwise everything was great

A lovely little family owned guest house just on the edge of town.
It's within walking distance of all shops and sea front.
It's ideal for groups or families and they were very helpful.
Great breakfast too!

Lovely garden and spacious room with nice beds.
All staff was nice, but it was so rude that the man (I think owner) was talking about the guests and started to have a fight with his wife, because she asked if we wanted to have baked eggs for breakfast and he didn’t want her to ask that, because there were also hard boild half eggs on the table and we allready took one. We also heared him say that someone else allready took 4 parts of those eggs. I guess it’s up to the guests what they take for breakfast, if they take this, they take less from something else. It’s not nice if you talk about guests, in fact, yelling about them. The breakfast wasn’t that great, there was even only one little fresh bread left for me so I had to take a slice of the toastbread which I don’t like. All the other staff was nice, but this man made me feel unwanted.

Nice room, bed and pillows. Delicious breakfast. Awesome staff. All of them are so gently.
Wi fi on the back rooms could be a little bit faster.
