The man who introduced us to the hotel was lovely; he showed us around and explained everything and made sure we knew everything. He made us feel really comfortable and even said if we need help we could phone him at any time of the night; luckily that wasnt an issue. The beds were so comfy and the shower was lovely and hot. Would definitely stay again!

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!!

We are a family with 2 girls 6 and 8 yrs, and stayed Start of September. Julia and Jamie were great hosts, very friendly and did everything to make our stay perfect. Amazing breakfast hot and cold choice. Rooms clean and spacious. Good mix of guests - families, young couples, pensioners, from UK and abroad. The pool was heated 29degrees and had plenty of Sun loungers, there was free parking. A short walk away from the seafront and lots of restaurants to choose from.

Lovely house with great hosts. The room, although not very big, had everything you need and the bed was very comfortable. The breakfast was very good, with a lot of choice. The hosts had good tips for eating and sight seeing.

    Lovely guesthouse, hosts were very accommodating and helpful. Location was perfect close to shops and beach. Room was clean and tea and coffee was always replenished. The breakfast was amazingly good, great variety including a full cooked breakfast which was very nice all round and a great guest house. It's a bargain for the price. We will be back!

    Lovely property, well kept, very clean and great location close to harbour. Only issue is there are a number of steps up to the property if you have any mobility issues. Lena is a great host, couldn’t do enough for you, the breakfast is one of the best I have had and I’ve stayed in a lot of places.
