Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Fairly small property — Only six rooms, which means the guesthouse is intimate but may book out quickly and lacks large-hotel facilities.
  • Check-in window is limited — Check-in runs from 14:00 to 22:00, so arrivals outside that window need to plan ahead.
  • No pets allowed — Pets are not accepted, so travellers with animals will need to look elsewhere.
  • Price on the higher side for the class — From £229 per night, this guesthouse sits above the area average of 8.1, reflecting its premium positioning.
