The view from our room was fantastic and we spent a numbers of hours each day just wayching the world go by. They say you should start the day with a hearty breakfast and the team did a great job with a meal that lasted most of the day. I informed John as we were leaving that my only disppointment was the uncomfortable bed and he seemed genuinely surprised and said that no one else had mentioned it but would look at it at the earliest oppurtunity. Sunderland is just a short distance away with busses stopping outside the guest house every 30 minutes.

The decor wasn fresh and the beds were very clean and comfortable. The breakfast was served in a small ground floor ding room, by a lady who was very chatty and a great cook. Food was plentiful and piping hot with a good selection of stand breakfast food. Close to the beach and had we not have been there in February that would have been useful!!!
