The worst thing I've experienced so far. The mattress is so thick that you only lie on the springs. Unable to sleep. The fresh towels have yellow stains and the toilet still has marks from the previous user.

After driving for five hours to get to this Guest House I was unable to gain entry after ringing the bell several times and phoning the two numbers on the email. I did not have a key code to enter because it had not been sent to me in advance. Eventually a resident from upstairs came down and said he would try to contact the owner. (Two days later I discovered that the owner was on a plane to Spain the time of my arrival and did not seem to care that I had been unable to get into the Guest House). While I was waiting for this resident to return, two female neighbours came over the road to speak to me separately. Both told me not to stay there because that had been incidents of domestic violence twice recently, and police had been called. They advised me that as a single female it was not safe for me to stay there. I left and went to find another guest house. There is a really nice friendly warm and welcoming Starfish café on the ground floor, which has no connection to the business on the floors above. The Starfish cafe owners are really sick of people coming down to complain that there are no clean sheets or that there is not enough toilet paper when it is not their problem and they have no connection to the business above. I can recommend the cafe. It would seem that this is a contractors? residence where Workmen with vans stay overnight when working in the area. I entered with a workman (two days later) and saw his basic single room which was clean and had clean sheets and limited facilities. He also had difficulty gaining entry. No food is provided on the premises, but is available downstairs at the separate Starfish business and elsewhere locally.

Described as basic but has all you need with fresh clean sheets. Oh, not ensuite but has a sink and plenty to drink with snacks. Just metres from the beach.

Bloody nightmare, water stone cold each morning had showers at a family member house, like an ice box don't believe in putting heating on, the cleaning was a lovely lady when we saw her I suppose she can only do her best under the conditions on the guest house , bloody mouse in our room last night we was in here , just glad to be going home tbhThe lovely cafe downstairs was absolutely amazing , just a shame about the guest house but could really need a complete refit

I booked to stay in this B&B weeks in advance for a weekend away followed by the Great North Run. They rang me to cancel my accommodation the day before it was due to begin. Now there is no more accommodation for me to book in to. All the Great North Run car parking spaces are fully booked. So I now do not have travel plans or accommodation the day before. Hugely disappointed. Unreliable. Do not recommend.

Terrible.First off; the man at the desk gave us the wrong key and accused us of having ?fake money?. Then when that was sorted we got into our room and it smelt like BO. The carpet was so rough. bed was uncomfortable. It was so hot and the windows didn?t open. The shared bathroom was disgraceful. The bath was dirty, stained and run down.

A group of us went for afternoon tea and it was wonderful. It was really good value and very tasty, from the sandwiches, the mini scones, trifles and cakes. Everything was freshly baked and prepared and lovely. We will definitely be going back ??
