We needed somewhere to stay whilst visiting friends in Plymouth||We were met by Diane who showed us to our rooms and provided a welcome pot of tea. Parking was available at the rear of the property as the street is residents only. …

. Went to visit my daughter who is at the uni and this place was just perfect. Accommodation was immaculate and very comfortable. Diane was very welcoming and makes a fantastic breakfast to boot. Would highly recommend it as it is in easy access of everything but situated down a quiet little street.Will definitely be staying there again. thanks Diane

Great location, 10 min walk to the city centre and the marina, the host was lovely, welcoming and extremely helpful and accommodating. They offer vegetarian/dairy free options (with notice) we stayed in the twin en-suite attic room and it was roomy enough for two of us for a few nights. The host let us use her parking space as we had a small car. Very clean and tidy and well looked after! Thank you for our lovely stay :)
