Reviews for Carrington Guest House
Review 1:Booked for my children to visit based on the reviews, they loved it, really friendly with some personal touches that made them feel at home. All good.
Review 2:Nothing
Review 3:Very friendly and accommodating staff who were very keen to satisfy all travellers requirements. The breakfast was fantastic, prepared well served promptly and was always hot.The room was clean and had a good outlook and the owners were very nice.
Review 4:Bouncy bed is great fun but not so great for two people trying to sleep as movement by one wakes the other etc ( though I think gorgeous bride got vengeful after my first two accidental shiftings... ) My apologies for not mentioning it at the time, so I've not docked any points. Also, and I've clearly consumed rather too many sausages in my time in a personal quest, the smooth texture, Walls type seasoning variety really doesn't do it for me but that may be my taste!
Review 5:Enthusiastic host is warm and clear with his information. Our room, hall and breakfast room all seemed absolutely spotless! Boost function on shower is fab. Good breakfast. Really good experience, excellent value and any negatives can be only petty griping!
Review 6:No private parking but that is something the proprietors couldn't do anything about.
Review 7:Extra touches like toiletries and bottled water were appreciated. Service was friendly efficient and considerate to individual needs
Review 8:Could do with a different choice of sausages and bacon for the breakfast. Apart from that absolutely nothing else was wrong.
Review 9:Location is great. Staff were FAB and the rooms was really nice.
Review 10:Withliquid soap container directly above tiny basin it was awkward to brush teeth
Review 11:Help from hosts Parking organised in advance Early breakfast appreciated
Review 12:Fabulous hosts, always welcoming and friendly. Very professional and excellent Guest House. Very attentive, nothing was to much trouble. Thoroughly enjoyed the breakfast with local produce. Will definitely be back :)
Review 13:We don't often stay in Guesthouses so we were a little trepidatious about staying at the Carrington. From the moment we arrived, however, any concerns we had quickly disappeared. Brian and Angeline, the proprietors, were both welcoming and friendly and efficiently explained everything we needed to know to help our stay go smoothly. We were shown personally to our room which was spotlessly clean, subtly decorated and equipped to standard exceeding the stated "three star" grading. The bedding was of a good quality as were the towels in the slightly small ensuite bathroom which was, again, spotlessly clean. We had a very comfortable nights sleep with the Carrington being situated on a quiet one way street leading away from the busy sea front. Our bed was comfortable and the day bed provided for our daughter was also conducive to a good nights sleep. Breakfast was served in the ground floor dining room which was bright and airy. The Carrington breakfast was tasty and of good quality, freshly prepared and piping hot. A good selection of breakfast cereals was available along with fruit juices and preserves. The marmalade, which I believe may be home made, was well worth trying. Overall the Carrington is a delightful place to stay, well located, and definitely excellent value for money. More than deserving of their three star classification and probably more. Well worth a visit!!
Review 14:Nothing to dislike, but:- Heavy duvet unsuitable for hot weather. Wifi not always accessible in room.
Review 15:Warm welcome, relaxed atmosphere. Comfortable single room with plenty of storage space. Bathrobe and slippers supplied as room is not en suite, but bathroom for sole use with good shower. Good location close to beach, shops, bus and rail station. Breakfast, especially the omelette, was delicious!
Review 16:Staff were friendly and helpful with car parking. Breakfast first class. Room tidy and services not skimped, including the issue of top quality toilet paper which you don't often get.
Review 17:Very welcoming, excellent standard of accommodation. Wonderful extras such as slippers and toiletries. Extremely clean and comfortable. Excellent location. Highly recommended.
Review 18:Nothing!

Review 20:Very clean and tidy. A nice welcoming , friendly and located in a good area close to the town centre. Nice breakfast with plenty of options and a nice sized bathroom.
Review 21:Nothing really; the shower room might be a little tight for a large person, but was fine for me.
Review 22:Situated on a quiet side street just off the Esplanade, a couple of minutes walk to town, around 5 minutes from bus and train stations and near to beach and pier. Ideal location. The Guest House is spotlessly clean; the owners are very welcoming and provide nice extras i.e. choice of teas in room, bottle of water, biscuits, toiletries and tissues (which are not always available in much dearer accommodation. Good choice of breakfast items, which was delicious. Hope to stay there again some time.
