“This guesthouse sits comfortably on the west end of the Hoe, ideally placed for seafront strolls and a short walk to the Barbican's shops and theatre. The owners clearly focus on the details, from spotless rooms to bespoke breakfasts and thoughtful extras. I particularly appreciate the way they integrate local history into the guest experience.”
