We had booked the Princess Caroline Room on line and it exceeded our expectations with splendid views of the pier. Continental breakfast was served in the room below, with a same view. There was an excellent range of cold meats, cheese, yogurts,... More

Stayed here a few times and now wouldn't stay antwhere else. Parking can be an issue but is easily managable and wouldn't influence my choice. Friendly and very helpful staff, rooms spotless, bright and airy. Nice views over estuary

I have stayed at the Pier View Guest Accommodation five times now and really look forward to staying there again. It is all you can ask for in a Sea Side Guest House. The rooms are clean and comfortable, with added touches of luxury everywhere. Most rooms have a great view of the sea and especially from the balcony of... More

As directed by fellow travellers on Trip Advisor we asked for the Princess Caroline room for our one night stay - absolutely beautiful as previously described! Wonderfully comfortable bed with luxurious sheets, lovely view of the pier, beautifully furnished. Small bathroom was fine, shower good with lovely fluffy towels - very important! We were staying here overnight as we were... More

This spotlessly clean guest house is in a prime location. Nothing was too much trouble for the friendly owners/staff who catered for our every need. As grandparents with 10 yr old grand-daughter we much appreciated the use of the large comfortable lounge (with a 1st floor view) with endless supply of coffee / snacks most evenings as weather freezing cold....

A very charming and elegant room, excellent bed and a delicious breakfast. The people who we had contact with were very helpful and friendly, the possibility for my husband to communicate in French was a great plus. "We'll be back" as the saying goes !
