    Sis Winnie,she is such a great host. She went extra miles to make our stay spectacular. She came to change the linens and clean on the 3rd day of our stay and gave us extra toilet paper. She was just a phone call away. Her place is big enough for a family. You get all your self catering utensils. Most definitely recommend.

    My family and I had a good stay at Selborne Bed & Breakfast. Jemma communicated with me before we arrived and we were welcomed with a smile. She was a good host and allowed my family and I to invite a couple of my family members for a celebratory lunch as I had graduated. The B & B has a great dining space and lounge big enough to host about 10 to 12 visitors. I was happy with their service.

    Stewart is a lovely host. We were traveling with our 2 boys (aged 3 and 4). Stewart was not only friendly but he also recommended places to go to in East London, which we tried out and were very happy. Breakfast was always great and a neat area to eat in. We were also fortunate that there was another family there with kids and everyone got along. Thank you for being a great host Stewart.
