Lovely room in a nice spot close to town. Geraldine the owner was so welcoming we felt really at home! Nothing was too much trouble. Breakfast excellent. Somerset House is near enough to walk to seaside and promenade and close to station for days out. Would recommend for a pleasant short break :-)

The B&B was lovely nice and bright and clean, it was handy for shops and eating places. The only thing we didn't like was no cooked full English breakfast, but there were a few other choices. It wouldn't put us off staying there again, we are hoping to do soon.

Stayed 3 nights at Somerset House with the dog. We were made to feel very welcome on our arrival, and all our needs were met during our stay, including breakfast in our room. The B&B was lovely and homely and a great location for visiting the local area, and neighbouring towns. The promenade and the park were within walking distance, and were great spaces for exercising the dog. We have had a fantastic weekend, and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Thank you

Comfortable, quiet and immaculately clean I had a lovely stay at Somerset House. Geraldine and Dave couldn’t be nicer as hosts. The room was simple but comfortable with a great power shower and the hotel itself is no more than few minutes stroll from the very centre of Grange and shops and cafes including the huge and beautiful Daisy Roots Bookshop, and within moments of the Promenade. Ideal location for me arriving by train and cycle-touring with Grange as a base and with convenient cycle storage within the hotel itself. Have stayed before and will be back to stay again. 5 Stars!

A pleasant B&B in a lovely area

We were greeted at the door by Geraldine, who was very nice. Check-in was very easy and she showed us up to the room. There was a breakfast menu for us to choose and hand-in the evening before. Breakfast choices were limited and it was disappointing not to see a Full English on the menu, although what was served at breakfast was very tasty (bacon muffin / egg on toast). The bedroom was quite small and the shower room was tiny, with the shower cubicle difficult to access (for a big guy like myself). The bed was comfortable and we both slept well.
