Wonderful stay.
Had a wonderful stay here. House was full of character, lovely couple that ran the B&B. Our room was comfortable, nice bed, shower etc, overlooking the garden. Quiet. Breakfast was the best we had whilst staying on the island. Fresh fruit, cereals, cooked, toast etc. Free parking and wi-fi. Would definitely stay here again. Thank you.

Lovely, comfortable B&B
Lovely, comfortable B&B. We had premium room at top of the house which had a good deal of space including sofa to watch TV from. Nice decor. Very good breakfast. Warm welcome from our hosts. We had to drive in to Yarmouth to have dinner but pub across the main road (being renovated) looks like it is going to open fairly soon. Can understand why it has been fully booked for the last 6 months and why clientele return. Note this property is at Colwell Bay and not in the middle of Freshwater proper which includes a number of villages/areas.
