Kempfield House

Parking on the street for a fee.

Excellent location, a short walk into town and some excellent cafes and restaurants nearby. Comfortable bed and spacious room, everything clean. Owners very friendly and helpful when we booked in. We were able to purchase a parking permit cheaply and, although parking tricky,we managed to find a space a short distance away. At time of visit there was only one towel hanger; some extra hooks and a shelf for washbags etc would be useful! Overall a very enjoyable stay!

Good location

Small quirky well equipped room, with nice welcoming tea and biscuits - very nice pub from which you collect keys next door but one. Bed comfy but slightly worn, bedside light did not work. Some noise from outside sounded like a pub or club party but went quiet shortly after midnight. The TV in the room switched itself on automatically at 06:18 in the morning waking me up, so I turned it off at the plug. The hotel itself has a lot of character. It is near the sea and plenty of shops and bars, cafes and so on.

Positives: Location was fantastic. Good shower. Negatives: Price extortionate (due to marathon day I assume). Room was very cold. No heating coming out of the radiators. Fridge was leaking water all over the floor. Cleaners were knocking on the door 15mins before checkout time.
