a lovely little gem!

amazing hostsdelicious breakfastperfect locationfresh eggs benedict
jo and martin are AMAZING!!! breakfast was superb with so many delicious options. i enjoyed the fresh, cooked-to-order eggs benedict each morning. the location was perfect, just a short walk to the seafront.
the tea and coffee selection in the room, while plentiful, could use a slightly wider variety of herbal teas.
Location
9/10
The location allows quick access to nearby attractions. The promenade is about 150 yards away. bars and restaurants are located nearby. This makes it very convenient. the town is a short, pleasant walk.
Service

lovely atmosphereexcellent hostingenough spacebathroom mirror
the family room had a separate area just for the kids, wow! the beds felt so comfortable, i almost took one home with me, honestly. breakfast was top tier, cooked breakfasts one day, eggs benedict the next. all the continental stuff you could dream of. the atmosphere was so lovely and the hosting excellent.
the room we stayed in did not have enough space, bummer! the bathroom mirror had a crack, ugh. i hope these are fixed soon.
