Great overnight stay

We loved the Manse on the Beach. The owners have clearly invested a lot of money to have a place of this high standard. The breakfast was beautiful. My wife is already planning another trip.

We had a lovely stay at this accomodation. We were able to relax in the communal areas with the added options of a hot tub and massage. All the staff were very welcoming. The accomodation was directly facing the beautiful beach. We would highly recommend this B&B

Manse in the Beach is the perfect getaway. Just opposite a lovely beach which my dog and I had to ourselves. From arriving I felt right at home, the accomodation is beautiful and Sarah & Brian are the perfect hosts. Nothing is too much trouble. I had poached eggs bacon & sourdough bread just yum . I was lucky enough to coincide my stay with a Thai night on the Saturday and the food was delicious, great variety of freshly cooked dishes all beautifully presented. Everything about Manse on the beach is perfect. Location, cleanliness and the hospitality. Well worth a visit 🙂

Exceptional!

What a hidden gem situated in a quiet, picturesque location. Exceptionally clean, beautifully furnished, well equipped and the private sauna and jacuzzi was a lovely touch. Powerful hairdryer, massive comfortable bed and Netflix on TV in room and lounge area were also appreciated. The breakfast was delicious with an excellent selection; fresh fruit, yoghurts, cereals, and a choice of cooked options. Lovely garden area to relax in and a beach just across from the property. The host Brian was very helpful and attentive. We thoroughly enjoyed our 1 night stay and hope to return.

Einfach grossartig!

Es war absolut wunderbar. Wir wurden sehr, sehr freundlich empfangen und während unseres Aufenthaltes bedient. Das Hotel ist sehr schön und stilvoll eingerichtet und unser Zimmer war sogar barrierefrei und behindertengerecht ausgestattet. Das Zimmer war grosszügig ausgestattet mit Tee, Kapselkaffee und tollen Pflegeprodukten. Das Frühstück wurde frisch zubereitet und war einfach grossartig! Wir können das Manse absolut empfehlen!

This is a stunningly beautiful hotel with amazing views. I was a bit apprehensive as it was my first time travelling with my 7 month old dog but the staff and owners were fantastic. The hotel is spotless. Smells amazing. There is a large enclosed back garden for dogs to run and enjoy. 5 resident dogs who are all beautiful and love to play. The breakfast was also delicious, great quality food, amazing service and great location for a relaxed few days away. You can walk straight onto the beach. I will definitely be back and couldn’t recommend this hotel enough
