A gem of a find.

A delightful venue. Very central, just a short stroll to Main Street. Comfy beds and very well presented. The plunge pool was a welcome refreshment after a long drive. Tasty breakfast and nice service. I’d definitely go again. Excellent value for money.

It was amazing to stay in Caroline's B&B. The welcome was very warm. Caroline made every effort to address all concerns, the staff were very, very friendly, and I enjoyed being there. The sea was within walking distance. There were shopping opportunities nearby. At night, I felt safe, and the car had a secure parking spot. Many thanks for everything, until next time. I will come again.
