Cara guesthouse
A cosy guesthouse on the seafront. We were allocated a room upstairs, unfortunately not a sea view, hopefully next time. We had our own bathroom close to the bedroom. We parked in the council carpark close by, popped out at 9am to pay for the day, £3. Marea and staff were friendly and hospitable. We enjoyed our stay.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The property was very dirty. Breakfast was not cooked to our liking - just had breakfast once then went out the other days. Couldn’t have tea or coffee in the room because the teapot had standing water in it when we arrived and the pot was stained and needed cleaning. Will not return nor recommend this place to others.

Northern soul ❤️
Single room for my dad. Perfectly adequate for his needs. Owner and staff were so lovely and helpful. Couldn’t fault them. Excellent breakfast choices all cooked to order. Room was comfortable and clean - just a cobweb up high on the ceiling and a bit of dust on the upper window shutters. The decor in a few places is showing wear, but overall, this is excellent value for money and a delightful seafront B&B. Will certainly be staying again. 👍

Last minute booking
Booked last minute and Julia was there to greet me on arrival. I had my dog with me and she was also made most welcome! There was a doggy welcome bag in the room which was a beautiful touch! Really homely atmosphere and lovely breakfast! Will most definitely stay again!
