Home from home

We spent 3 nights at Albert No 6. The room was comfortable (particularly the bed, great sleep!) It was very clean, and provisions were plenty. The hosts lent us beach towels and spades for Hot Water Beach, and gave us coffee and a cafetiere for our breakfast. Would thoroughly recommend. A really friendly team of staff. Great location too!

We loved our stay. The space, which included a small, separate bedroom (with 2 twin beds), was much larger than we anticipated, including the large bathroom. The owners were really helpful and friendly, and we had a great stay. We definitely recommend.

Highly recommend

Liked that they did the dishes and made sure they were sanitized. Often you really wonder if the guests before you did a good job cleaning after themselves. Good quality renovation. Very comfortable bed.
