    Very loud gulls, but you would hear them wherever you stayed, I’m sure!

    Very close to the seafront, clean and comfortable with excellent tea and coffee-making facilities in room.

    Nothing, really. Maybe one thing - the bacon would have been better if it had had more fat that had been crisped up.

    It was clean everywhere, including the front garden, and all the fittings were sympathetic with the style of the original house. The room provisions were great - we really savoured our hot chocolate after a long day walking and getting wet! We liked the 'courtyard' with its roof of passionflower, that we looked down onto. Even having our own bathroom slightly down the hall didn't bother us; it was neat and the shower gave good power and heat. The beds were narrow but really comfortable- I often get a bad back and the mattress supported me very well.

    There is absolutely nothing not to like.

    The Courtyard Guest House is very well appointed, and in an excellent location just off the seafront. The hosts Gareth and Donna are absolutely wonderful and so welcoming and attentive. The Courtyard Guest House is absolutely superb throughout. The rooms are exceptional including beautiful decor, mini fridge, cooling fan, heating, free wi-fi tea and coffee making facilities including biscuits ,water in fridge, desk and chair ,TV even a tissue box !! The breakfast is just amazing with a superb menu to select from. The attention to detail is second to none . We thoroughly recommend staying at the Courtyard and will definitely be returning.

    We got a little noise from squeaky floor boards in the room above us. But it's to be expected in such a beautiful old property.

    Absolutely everything! What an absolute little gem this place is. It's spotlessly clean, you have everything you need and the breakfast is lovely. The host is lovely and can't do enough for you. We will definitely be returning.
