    The location was convenient to the town center and beaches. The bed was a bit soft for me, but my wife found it just right. The room and bathroom were super clean. We appreciated being able to open the windows to keep the room cool at night.

    Everything was perfect. The place is just 5 minutes away from the beach, you literally walk up the street in front of the house and you reach it. 10-15 min walk to the harbour and the main street with shops and restaurants. The place was very...

Company info

We bought Headlands in June 2005 and since then we have made a great many changes to the guest house. Over the years, as our family has grown, we have had to make some changes to the day to day running of our business, the facilities offered and the general lay out of the guesthouse. All the changes have been made to try and balance our work & home life but also with our guests at the front of our minds to ensure that we remain true to our ethos of great value, clean and comfortable accommodation. Therefore, we are "room only" accommodation. Our check in is contactless (via a lock box) as is our check out - however, we live on the premises so we can be on hand to be able to help our guests with any queries or issues that they may have. All of our rooms have been modernised and decorated over the years in order that we can ensure our guests enjoy a comfortable stay with us. Our ensuite bathrooms are small but functional, all our double beds are a standard 4ft6" and have the same quality mattresses that we sleep on in our own home - we believe that a comfortable night's sleep is key to an enjoyable holiday.
