    Janet and Stuart were wonderful hosts. Breakfast was fantastic, very clean and well equipped room, good location for the town. The homemade cakes and local knowledge of the hosts was unexpected and very much appreciated

    Bloody Fabulous.

    The best guest house experience ever, I didn't want to leave. Incredible hosts, beautiful rooms, well equipped, Janet and Stuart have thought of everything (I especially loved the "make up remover" flannel), super comfy bed, stunning views, great location, available free parking, fantastic breakfast. I completed The Lap on the Saturday and Janet kindly left the lights on for me to be able to see leaving super early in the morning, then sent me a fabulous breakfast sandwich up with my partner on the Sunday so I didn't need to walk up and down the stairs twice. How did I nearly forget the complementary sweet treats, they were incredible! Thank you so much!! We will be back for sure.

    I cannot fault anything
