I booked this B&B with some trepidation because there were very mixed reviews on Trip Advisor (quite a few negative) - but I was booking last minute so there wasn't a wide choice. I have no idea why there have been bad reviews, but as soon as my husband and I saw our room we booked a second night without... More

We stayed at this guesthouse to be near my friend as we were getting married. The owner is very unfriendly and what i would.actually consider abrupt and rude. The owner made me and my partner feel totally unwelcome. The room was lovely but i would not go back and not recommend this place. Sorry! More

Dont be put off by a couple of negative reviews for this place. I`ve been staying here on and off for a number of years and find it perfect for a good comfortable and quiet nights sleep at a very good price. The rooms are always immaculate and the breakfast excellent. Dannys fresh fruit platter as a starter is something... More

I do not know how this place operates as a Business. We were left stranded after having a nights accommodation cancelled on us. We contacted this establishment to notify them we would be running a little bit late but was very rudely told that you would have to find alternate accommodation for the night as there would be no one...

When we walked into the hotel we thought that we were entering an old peoples home, the furniture and decor is so old fashioned and out dated, the shower was very weak and not very hot, but on the bright side the beds were comfortable and clean and the breakfast was quite good but the hotel id a bit out...

The Receptionist was pleasant but had very little local knowledge. Situated within a short walking distance of the sea front and pier, but a fair trek to local hostelries and restaurants, although taxis were readily available and local buses for Portsmouth. The room was spacious and clean, .............and very pink, but rather outdated. A big disappointment was the limited breakfast... More

We booked at St Margaret;s Lodge at short notice for a short break. A qick telephone was smoothly dealt with in a friendly manner by Danny who also welcomed us on arrival. We know the area well but Danny clearly knew it well and was prepared to help anyone who did not. First impressions were of a quiet, friendly very... More

We stayed here for 2 nights and were extremely disappointed. Decor was tired and dated. Bed was lumpy and uncomfortable and the shower was the worst shower we have ever had the pleasure of using. Noway is this place value for money or deserving of its AA 4 star rating. Best bit was the breakfast, worst bit was being told... More

We thought this place was a shocker. We were running out of options when we booked this place and were sorry we did. The owner was friendly enough but the whole place was very ordinary. It has the steepest, narrowest and most dangerous stairs I have ever seen and we had to continue up them for two stories - through... More
