Excellent B&B, great breakfast served between 8.15-9.15 cooked very well, 15 minute walk to harbour and the room was a good size with enough storage! It had a homely feel and the owners are very welcoming. I left an item there by mistake and they kept it to one side for me to collect a week later. Would recommend staying here. Parking was free on site also with a spot for each room.

Don't think you could find better hosts, always smiling and friendly. Nothing is too much trouble. Rooms are large, clean and comfortable with great beds. Breakfast is excellent! Just a short walk away from the beach at Abbey Sands. Ideally placed for a good selection of restaurants and bars. Buses nearby if needed or a great place for walking around the area. Really can't wait to get back again for another visit. Once a year is not enough.
