Cute B&B. Couldn't get hold of staff after we had spoken earlier in the day and they had confirmed they would still be on site when we arrived, a couple staying there had pity on us and helped us call the staff, etc. We ended returningthe favor to another late group. Room was nice, clean, and spacious. Small restaurant /bar eas nice.

Good value for a passing 1 night stay. Room had a few flaws. Light above shower constantly flickered. Water in taps got very hot, very quickly and room was overally very hot even with window open. Good value and choice at bar and restaurant

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
The carpets were in need of a good deep clean. The overpowering musty smell when you step into the rooms. The furniture was old and outdated. The wallpayer was coming off the walls. The shower was moldy. Only positves, big room and close to beach and shops and eating and driving venues. Not worth the money

The girl at the desk was running the whole show the night we were there. I believe her name was Louise. She checked us in, got us drinks at the bar, waited on us for dinner and gave us directions to where we wanted to go. She was amazing! The beach down the road was stunning. Good food as well. Breakfast staff was also very pleasant.

Facility needs some attention. Bathroom lighting was poor. We booked king beds but didn’t get them. We arrived late so that may have had an impact. Breakfast service was slow. Seemed like server needed some help.
