Highly recommended! Richard was a fantastic host, friendly and attentive. Nat's a fantastic cook. It's the best Thai food we've had in the UK. Very family friendly - We were two couples with our 6 year olds who were also very well looked after. The children loved the food too. Rooms and bathrooms were clean and tidy. The location is perfect if you want to be close to beaches like Lyme Regis, Charmouth, Seaton etc. We will definitely be going back!

The owner is really unfriendly, would never imagine this is a 4 star hotel service, would not recommend this to any of my friends.

Great privately owned hotel. Excellent service. Outstanding quality freshly cooked meals. The best Thai food you would want to try and try again cooked by Nat ( Richard's wife). Nice celection of drinks too! Located in beautiful area with car park just outside of the hotel. It has pretty stable WiFi. Cosy rooms and very comfortable beds. Best customer service! Richard ( the owner) will accommodate you with all your needs and make you feel at home. You will feel there well looked after. We have really enjoyed our stay there and definitely will be back again!

Stayed here for a wedding just up the road, great location for the venue. Our room was nice enough, but quite close to the road and the single glazing didn't help to stop traffic noise (it's an old building so I can understand why this hasn't been upgraded). The shower in our room was quite fiddly, and a bit of a challenge to get the hot water to come through. With some persistence I got there. The water pressure isn't great, and neither was the heat, but served a purpose just about.
The owner seemed a bit stressed at times as the B&B was full without many staff; given the current circumstances this was understandable by many guests. We had a Thai buffet on the Friday night, the food was excellent but overpriced in my opinion at 30pp. The breakfast was very good too, although a hash brown or two would have been good! I wouldn't rush back to stay here for a relaxing weekend away but would do a few nights if there was another wedding at the Church nearby.
