Wow. From the minute we stepped in the door we were made to feel very welcome. Ally and Ruth even went out of their way to greet our 8 year old daughter, which made her feel welcome as well. The room was spacious, clean and well furnished. Breakfast was top-notch and soaked in friendly service. Ruth not only recommended a... More

My wife and I stayed with Ally and Ruth a couple of nights ago, and I cannot begin to say how good their manner and customer approach was - which immediately put us at ease after a long day of driving. We asked about local places to eat and were given some great recommendations (the Waterfront is fab); and in... More

This was our first experience staying at a B&B and it was very positive. The owners were very welcoming and provided us some restaurant guidance, provided coupons and maps. We had homemade banana muffins waiting in our room which was warm, comfortable and super clean. We enjoyed our stay immensely. More

Fell on this by chance and will certainly be staying again(probably sooner than later). Nothing too much trouble for the owners. Very clean, very tidy & very good breakfast. With a MUG for your pot of tea too.! Bonus. All in all a great place to stay you won't be disappointed if your lucky enough stop here 10/10. Phil. (Greenwoods) More

The room and en suite were lovely and impeccably clean. But the real stars were the owners - they couldn't have been more welcoming and helpful. They gave us sample menus for local restaurants, helped us make reservations, gave us maps etc. There were hand made cookies to welcome us and complimentary toiletries in the bathroom. Breakfast was wonderful and... More
