Mary and Ray were extremely welcoming and friendly. Their guest house is immaculate with excellent access to the nearby promenade. Our room was spacious with a comfy double bed, new carpet and view of the sea. The en-suite had a shower and toilet which was very clean and fresh. If I’m being picky, the bath towels were a little on the small side. Breakfast was freshly cooked traditional English with a pot of tea or coffee, toast and fresh orange juice. Delicious. We received recommendations for nearby restaurants for dinner which proved to be as good as advised. Access to and from the guest house was with our own set of keys and we were welcomed with a smile and said goodbye with a hug. Definately recommend this little gem to anyone staying in the area.

Nice Guest House very close to sea front, pier, restaurants and bars. Booked Guest House for horse racing at Great Yarmouth was easy to catch the local sea front train or local bus in town centre a short walk away. Hosts Mary & ray could not do any more for us very friendly and helpful. Looking forward to staying again in the future.

Great location and lovely stay. Top B&B !!
Lovely stay. Was met by the host on arrival who checked us in quickly and efficiently. Had a great one night stay in a comfortable room with a sea view. Good location for all the usual seaside attractions and a short walk from some good restaurants on the South Quay. car parking was safe and easy on the side road with no charges, but it may be more hectic in high season though!

Excellent location, a very warm welcome to a lovely hotel very simple and easy checkin and a beautiful room.Couldn't recommend this hotel enough, from arrival our experience here was brilliant. The bed was comfy and room quiet I could hear no outside noise and slept through the night without an issue. Very clean rooms what more could you ask for from a hotel. The owners Ray and Mary Barnes are provided wonderful service, they're extremely helpful, friendly and checked with us a few times during our stay, to make sure everything is fine. The English breakfast was superb.....we will certainly be returning. Many thanks to Mary and Ray Barnes for your service. See you all soon. Best regards, Jenny and Jason

Well looked after by Mary &Ray who were very friendly. The property was excellent with everything you need for a good stay even fresh milk the first evening in the room. Would have liked it the second evening aswell but it didn't matter. It's in a good location close to the sea front and all the amenities. Would gladly stay there again and recommend to others.

Very friendly owners, clean & fab brekkie!
We are a couple in our early 30's who booked a very last minute break here. We could not fault the warmth, friendliness and genuine nature of the owners, Mary & Ray who consistently ensured that our needs were met as their guests. Our room was very light, well decorated and most importantly immaculately clean. I would agree with others that the ensuite facilities do perhaps need updating but this a very nitpicking point, it doesn't detract from your stay & I'm aware Mary & Ray are renovating the rooms. The breakfast was very delicious and was comprised of good quality products that were nice and fresh (your scrambled eggs were fab Mary!) The tea & toast was plentiful too. Ray kindly gave us some recommendations over breakfast for places to stop for a drink, have a cream tea etc. The owners clearly know their location & the surrounding areas very well. We will definitely stay again when we get the chance for a little break away. Thank you for a lovely stay.

The host's were really friendly and helpful. I liked the fact that they went out of their way and sent personnel emails to introduce themselves to you and made themselves available for your arrival time. I will be going back with my family in Aug this year and I will definately be recommending this hotel to my family and friends.
