A fantastic stay

We had a fantastic stay at Albourne Guesthouse! Audrey & Glen and their fantastic staff made our stay to something special. Their hospitality, always a smile, nothing was impossible, always there to help or share their experience or good advice. They really take care of their guests. We had fantastic breakfast and could also choose from different hot dishes and they were always there to serve an extra cup of coffee. The fantastic beautiful garden with flowers, birds and a nice pool. Imagine sitting out in the beautiful patio under the bougainvillea and just enjoy your breakfast.. And you could have extra coffe during the day and or all of a sudden you just found a bottle of water beside you by the pool. There were an "Honest Bar" to use as well. We will be back!!
