My friend and I stayed at Kempfiled House on a Saturday night for a college reunion. The location is fantastic - a few yards from the seafront, pier and aquarium. We arrived in time for a seafront stroll and lunch (plenty of good restaurants within walking distance), and were welcomed by the hotel's two lovely Labradors. The twin room was... More

We arrived quite late on a Sunday evening but it was no problem because Chris the proprietor had phoned us at home in the morning and provided the door entry code. We even managed to park right outside. In the street and collected our £10 permits in the morning. Our room was a lovely surprise, it had a big four... More

I stayed here for one night for a business trip. Pleasant greeting, sorted out a residents parking permit (£10) for 24 hours. My room had a 4 poster bed, small bottle of red wine, peanuts and chocolates on the bed, very surprising. Large rooms in this old house, tastefully decorated , with a large bathroom. So much nicer than a... More

Stayed for 3 nts and have stayed in a fair few B & B's and nice hotels and have to say this one is one I wouldn't stay in again. Our room (superior) was at the back so quiet room as requested, however very dated, tired and in need of decoration. Needed to ask if we had been given a... More

This was our 3rd visit to the Kempfield so that should really tell you that previous visits have been good, however ................ I can only assume there has been a change of ownership or management, customer service skills of the front of house was dreadfull, the rooms (we stayed in 2 different rooms over the 2 nights) were both dreadfull,...

We stayed here during April 2011 and after staying in the hotel opposite the previous year, were a little hesitant that it would be much different, but were plesantly surprised! Although the room was quite cramped it was great for just somewhere to sleep. The staff were friendly and the breakfast was ok. The room had a very loud fan... More

The staff were very friendly and welcoming and our room was large and very comfortable. As non-tea and coffee drinking people we were very appreciative of the complimetary water and soft drinks in the fridge - and even more pleasantly surprised when these were re-stocked on the second day of our stay. The location is great - close to the... More
