We were given two rooms for the price of one on the same floor. They were very clean and tidy. Our room was freshened up daily with a good supply of beverages. Mike was very helpful and pleasant, he told us about the short cut to the station through the park-with very friendly squirrels. We didn’t have an option for breakfast, but we found a couple of great cafes near the station so it wasn’t a problem. Thanks Mike for a great stay.
Clean, friendly, convenient. The rooms are large, comfortable and the beds are comfy. I has a medical need and Mike was understanding and helpful. Breakfast was a good choice of cereals and breads. He is conscious of healthy diets and dietary needs and will make some reasonable accommodations.
We had a great stay in June 2019 in this fine accomodation. The room was very comfortable and quiet. Good choice at the Continental breakfast. Nice stroll to the City`s restaurants in approx. 15-20 minutes 5 minutes to the waterfront, good parking in the street.
Super friendly, polite and clean guest house. Ideally situated both close to town and seafront. Had good facilities available in the room, good choice available for breakfast and staff were very helpful. If ever get opportunity to return will definitely stay here. Thanks to the hosts and wishing you continued success.

Stayed here from Monday to Friday, absolutely lovely. Great sized room for 3 people, good facilities and well maintained. Great location on a lovely road near the sea. Lovely, friendly hosts with great knowledge of the local area. The quality Biscuits with the tea tray each day was a nice touch! I would recommend Westbourne Guest House to anyone and would stay again.
