A really good experience with the cleanest room and bathroom. The fittings and facilities are first class. It was so nice to have a choice of teas in the room and pretty China cups and saucers. We could not find any fault with this hotel and the owner was friendly and helpfull. One couldn't find a better B&B hotel.

Martin was a great host and was helpful with where to eat locally. There is secure parking for motorbikes and the town is only about ten minutes walk from his front door where there is a multitude of places to eat etc.||||Rooms were clean and well looked after.

The rooms are large, but the bathrooms are really small. Everything very clean. Unfortunately, the springs were clearly noticeable in my bed. Everything you could want is available in the rooms.Martin, the owner, is extremely friendly and helpful. As the saying goes: He lives to be a host.The breakfast is very rich. Lots of choices. From fresh fruit salad and yoghurt, milk, various cereals, tea, coffee, orange juice to English breakfast, there is everything your heart desires and your appetite. Recommended.

Landlord Martin has been a godsend for us. We left the previously booked hotel, the White House or Cliff Court, straight away because it was terrible. Martin was able to help us super quickly and we were able to take a single room because we still had an air mattress with us.So we could choose the cheapest option. Martin is such a fun-loving, likeable person, really great and a rarity.He gave us a few tips.We can only recommend Martin and will definitely book with Martin on our next visit to England, as we missed breakfast today because we had to get to the ferry early.
