    This is our 3rd stay at this wonderful bed and breakfast. We instantly feel rested and sleep so well in the comfortable beds. The steam packet is spotlessly clean. Everything is perfect. The room is so well equipped including a kitchen area, and sitting area with an awesome view of the estuary and river. The sea air and the breakfast make it a wonderful place to visit. We chose to have a full English breakfast and it was delicious. Mark and Arleta work tirelessly to keep everything perfect. Thank you so much. Can’t wait to come back x

    Wi-fi was a bit temperamental but it still worked.

    Hosts were very nice and accommodating. Food was fresh and tasty. Location was perfect for the activity that I was undertaking for the week. Room was comfortable, quiet and clean and it was very helpful having my own cooking facilities.

    There was nothing to dislike aside from the leaking kitchen tap that spilled onto the kitchen counter when in use.

    Breakfast was great and it was adjusted to suit my no meat or dairy requirements.

    The breakfast was superb! We are vegetarians/vegans, and Mark and Arleta,our hosts went out of their way to satisfy our palette. Thank you so much!

    The bed in room 1 was bad on one side of the mattress it has sunk so sleeping on the right side only, luckily I was alone! I was offered z full cooked breakfast, but only wanted cereal and toast. I was only offered museli the whole stay, no other choice of cereal offered. Was not asked if I preferred white or brown toast, it was always seeded bread used. The owners were very accommodating but over asked if everything was OK. As soon as I started on my museli my toast was brought out, it's too quick, so cold toast always!.

    The location is excellent for the train station and the local shops, 5 min walk. Room had everything you could want and it was lovely, clean and tidy.

    Everything was great about our stay, the hosts were very friendly and helpful. We had no issues at all and look forward to staying again.. Perfect location next to the river Arun, ideal for walking out along the coast both directions, near to town but far enough away to be quiet. Right next to the train station so may travel by train next time.

    We liked everything.

    We received a warm welcome from Mark and were shown to a large ensuite bedroom with veiws of both the river and the garden.The room was very comfortable and had everything we needed for our stay. The shower in the ensuite worked well. Breakfast in the morning was in the pleasant dining room overlooking the boatyard. The breakfasts we had were delicious and perfectly cooked. There are lots of great walks from the hotel and the town centre has quite a few good shops and restaurants. Overall, we had a very enjoyable weekend and would like to return sometime. Thank you.

    The hosts are extremely friendly and helpful. The breakfast is great, and I appreciate how you may request additional food, and the host always asks whether you want more or not. The location is closer to the train and beach, yet a few miles from the shops.

    Pub is only open on the weekends, but the upside is that it's very quiet in the evening.

    The owners of this character B&B were so welcoming and cooked tasty english breakfasts to order. There was a kitchen in the room which was great for preparing a simple meal as we didn't eat out every night. Has a fridge. Great location with pubs nearby. Short walk to centre. Right next to river walk, you can get to the beach along the riverwalk. Parking was on property and free.
