We had a fantastic stay at the Barclay guest house. Steve & Lynn are a friendly couple who we spent time with chatting in the garden area where it was very relaxing. The room we stayed in was very comfortable and quiet. Decor superb. I would highly recommend staying here as its also close to the beach and shops. We loved our stay.

We received an amazingly warm welcome from the moment we arrived. The room was perfect and the location amazing. The quality of the en-suite was fab and it was the little things like lots of power points, great WiFi even our Teenage Boys thought it was perfect. We even had a personalised welcome sign in our room and home made pieces of fudge with a thank you for staying note attached. Sometimes it those little things that make a massive difference. A big thank you to Kirsty for making us feel at home
