We have now stayed at Britten House on several occasions and look forward to going back soon. The owners are friendly and very attentive, without being intrusive. We have stayed in several different rooms, all of which have been spotlessly clean and comfortable. Cooked breakfasts are great and all requests are catered for. Easy to park in street outside. Would definitely recommend to friends.

You can almost imagine you hear music in your dreams when you know Benjamin Britten was born in this house & spent his childhood here! However, music aside we wondered what this hotel had to offer - surfice to say for a b.& b., it has everything. We were greeted at the door by the cheery proprietor who helped us with our luggage to the Mozart Suite & explained security arrangements & breakfast hours etc.The room was spacious with a large bed, comfortable sofa together with tea/coffee making facilities. It is situated at the front of the house, overlooking a road, car park & with views of the sea. What makes this room so special is that the sun rises over the sea & pours into the room first thing in the morning.
The bathroom has a modern shower with power jets which is great but the only minus side found was in here & it was the carpet which is old and very tatty. Breakfasts are excellent,
cooked by Anne Cerisca with a good choice of menu and her husband, Colin, carries out his duties as front of house for which he is ideally suited with his wit & great sense of humour -
without a doubt he is a gem! Car parking is restricted on the premises but there is a car park opposite so there are no problems. We compared this trip with nearly four weeks spent touring France & without a doubt we didn't find any b.& b. accommodation to match Britten House in value,food or friendliness.

Just spent one night very large double room with large en suite shower room.
Breakfast to die for.
Cannot praise how friendly owners are and everything so clean and tidy.
Hope to be back soon.

Stayed one night in the Britten room. Only wish it was for longer. Fabulous hotel, friendly, clean with lovely views of the Sea. Went in with my Hotel inspector head on as i have been watching it on tv but i could not find fault with anything. Owners very friendly with a wicked sense of humour. It was lovely to think that we have stayed in a house that has it's place in History. Would highly recommend his hotel to anyone. Lastly this hotel provided the softest towels i have ever felt.
