I had a great stay here! The room was super clean, comfy and even bigger than expected. The guesthouse is really close to the city centre and just a short walk from the beach :) Olga is an absolute angel, thanks for being so lovely and helping me with my massive bagpack! Would definitely stay here again 🙏

The Haleklani retreat is set high up amidst beautiful green countryside with panoramic views from all the windows overlooking the sea. I loved looking at the boats out on the water. I saw an owl swooping by one early morning. The lawns Leading down from the terrace were immaculately cared for as was the entire house. The house is very spacious and beautifully decorated with original art and sculptures and big healthy tropical plants. The house was warm and immaculately clean and beautifully organised . I loved the freestanding white bath in the spacious new bathroom also overlooking the sea. There were quality soaps and shampoo and conditioner, thick cotton towels. Every comfort was thoughtfully provided. The bedroom had a fresh coffee maker and kettle and a range of teas. Anne provided filtered fresh water and milk which was kept fresh in the mini fridge. The bed was deeply comfortable with plush pillows. The house had a hush and peaceful ambiance with soothing background music and lighting. The breakfast was abundant and beautifully cooked and good quality with attention to details with sprigs of parsley on the butter. It was lovely to sit and feast overlooking the sloping lawn and big sky and sea. I loved relaxing in the lounge area and worked happily for hours on my websites with Anne offering me cups of tea and coffee. I was warm and snug on the winters days that I stayed and it was glorious when the sun shone in. If you’re wanting peace and harmony and comfort- this is the place to stay.

What a fabulous experience! It was one of these rare occasions when a 10 is not enough, the best Bed and Breakfast we stayed in over 2 months around the British Isles! Great price, ideal location and the epitome of hospitality. The owners made sure to take care of every detail: clean and functional rooms; good taste and elegance everywhere; generous welcoming treats in the room to make you feel at home; really home-made breakfast in a cosy environment and with abundance of very good quality, healthy and traditional tastes. An example to follow regarding hospitality!

It was very clean and quiet. Great location to beach and town centre. Literally a 10 minute walk, and while homeward bound is a little up hill l, it’s not that bad. Also a great little pub across the road that does good meals. The ensuite room is on the 3rd floor, but not a big deal, unless you wanted to drag suitcases up. We just took up what we needed for the night. Bed was so fluffy and comfortable, we slept in. Both the hosts were very friendly and helpful. Lovely couple that are doing a great job of hosting. Even though there is no fridge in room, they have one on the landing for guest use.

What a little hidden gem!! I love the detail and thought of everything that went into the room and the needs of a solo traveler. First of all I turned up early at 10am, plenty of parking at the back of the hotel. Then my room was all ready so a bonus of an early check in, so I could dump all my stuff and go. Like I said I was a solo traveler so I had a single room on the bottom floor right next to the dining hall. For me the room was perfect, clean and comfortable with the extra added bonuses of a extra towel for my hair along with a full length mirror (‘little things in life), coffee and tea facilities, a cubby cupboard to store luggage, a mini fridge with a small bottle of water and a TV. The breakfast was outstanding, I basically had everything!! Porridge with Greek yogurt and fruit along with a great quality Full English. (photos to follow) Danny & Dolores were great hosts, answering all my questions and showing a general interest in my trip, along with them giving me a map to help me find my way round. Also your just a short few minutes walk down to the beach. If I had to give any niggle, it would be the bathroom could be a squeeze for the larger person, especially around the sink area. But I had no personal issues at all. Plus if you’re not an early riser (I am) you may get woken up via the light coming in via the shutter slats, and maybe by the lush smell of bacon coming through from the dinning room. The latter I really enjoyed as I knew I was in for a treat of a breakfast!! But these are the most little trivial things, and would not ever put me off staying again. I will 100% be back and I’ve recommended the Southbank Town House to all my friends and family, and as a quite hard to please ex travel representative. I’m impressed!!
