“Lovely area, lovely guesthouse, would definitely stay there again.”
Loved the environment, it was very quiet, which was great. The guesthouse is very centrally situated so it's easy to navigate around the Walmer area. The room was amazing, with fantastic facilities. The bed was VERY comfortable and it was great to have options for TV viewing. Will definitely stay there again.

“A wonderful retreat for a tired nurse who needed "time out"!”
We stayed close to where relatives live and coming in and out was no issue. Staff and owners were very efficient and friendly. It was tranquility at its best.

The place is nice. The problem of no electricity was beyond their control, but they compensated with the generator.
