“Give it a miss!”

Ellan Vannin Guest House, Liverpool

We stayed one night here in April, and cannot, in all honesty, recommend it to anyone, unless you are really stuck for a place to stay. The house and yard are rather run down, the room (we were in the front room downstairs) was also rather shabby, with worn bedding, very flat pillows, and rather thin drapes half hanging off their rods. It was a windy day, and the wind literally shrieked through the window frames. Fortunately, the wind dropped by bed-time, or I'm sure we would never have slept for the noise.

Breakfast was served in the room, as the dining room is apparently under renovation. With breakfast came a very long tale of woe from the owner about the unfortunate death, due to illness, of his young son some months previously. We felt badly for the guy, but this is really not the sort of stuff to inflict upon your guests. We felt very uncomfortable having to listen to all this

All in all, it was the worst stop on our three week tour of England's B&Bs. Too bad.

In response to the review, I truly apologise for the decor in the room. The whole property is being refurbished and if you care to return to our property in six month's time I am sure that you will see an improvement. The windows we have had a particular problem with as we have had large bay windows replaced with UPVC and for some reason the wind, on particular days, does blow through and make quite a noise. We are working on rectifying this. Also, can I apologise for my husband talking about our son. As you can imagine to lose a child is a tragedy and one we are coming to terms with. Each of us deals with this differently, my husband is only trying to talk about our son in order to keep him alive as he was a special child. I am sorry that this upset you. Please do not be put off by the previous review, as we are a friendly, reasonably cheap and clean accommodation offering a fantastic breakfast, albeit not in a dining room at present as we are having the ceiling renewed, which is a big job.
