The Varley House is a little outside of town in a quiet neighborhood. Rod is an attentive host and has an outstanding service from the arrival to special requests, as I wanted to send extra luggage home. The shower was grand, the room is spotless and inviting. I'd definitely stay there again and can warmly recommend.

It was such a beautiful yet quirky property! The room was stunning with the most gorgeous views over the cove. The bay windows were exquisite. It was truly mesmerising. The room was beautiful & fully equipped with, tea, coffee, cookies. There were lots of lovely toiletries & towels. The shower had fabulous pressure, really roomy and felt great. The bed was enormous & one of the most comfortable beds we’ve ever slept in. The hosts, Christopher and his wife Jayne were the most hospitable people ever. Gave us lots of advice about walking in the area and a little bit of history also. They were lovely people, warm and friendly. The breakfast was amazing! A large big hearty English breakfast with lovely big cafetière of delicious filtered coffee. The hosts kindly left complimentary water in the hallway which was really appreciated as it was a particularly hot weekend. There was a bench just across the path from the guest house which looked onto the cove. We even had the pleasure of watching the sunset. The location is simply perfect. I would highly recommend this guest house and we will definitely stay again. Thank you so much Christopher and Jayne for making our stay so special & enjoyable & magical. Absolutely fantastic. X

    The kinder people we have met in the UK, and regarding their overall kindness, this is a real compliment !!! Friendly people from the reception to the restaurant, as well as other customers, all really polite and quiet. They booked us a restaurant, gave us advices for wine and for visits, and were also really kind and patient with every customer (including families with small children, or elderly and/or disabled person) Everything was clean and neat, the gym is small but very well equipped.

    Great location right on the water. Bed was comfortable with all that was needed for a one night stay Food was good at reasonable price. Staff friendly. Small outside seating area overlooking the bay Public car parks close by and free overnight from 8pm to 8am so overnight stay in hotel car parking cost about £5 outside these hours. There is a very nice small sandy beach just outside the hotel which was used by families with small children as the water was quite shallow.
