Our host was amazing! He served a wonderful classic English breakfast and pivoted to our breakfast whims each morning. He suggested places to eat and things to see while we were there and was interested and engaged in our experiences in Worthing. A wonderful travel experience that felt like home!

Disliked: Staff & service, amenities
Felt very uncomfortable as only client and sign in window said no vacancy. Had to leave a night early as husband was taken ill. Got a very aggressive voice mail telling me there would be consequences for leaving early without paying. I rang to apologise and pay. He charged me £45 more than I was quoted even though I only stayed 1 night and had 1 breakfast. Do not recommend to anyone travelling alone.

Friendly host, spacious, affordable accommodation.

Was contacted by owner on day to make sure we were okay and making sure arrival would be smooth. Owner was friendly, accommodating, helpful. Useful on site parking, in a good location. We were in a spacious front bedroom and there was a bit of road noise, as on a main road but quietened down later in the evening and slept well, with comfortable bed. Tea/coffee/biscuits facility well stocked and much appreciated. Scrummy breakfast.
