The Cordelia

Absolutely stunning house with hosts to match. The little thoughtful touches make this place personalised and classy. The beds are super comfy in spacious and spotlessly clean rooms. The breakfasts are plentiful and top quality produce from local suppliers and the home made jams are delicious . The supper plates are a welcome addition and again top quality and value. Rebecca and James make you very welcome and are just lovely. Thank you for an amazing stay. 100 ⭐ awarded if available

A nice warm welcome from Rebecca, who has thought of everything! She was also very accommodating as we’d just had a family bereavement and showed flexibility which we appreciated. Large room on the second floor, lovely, very comfortable bed with very nice bedsheets etc. Modern bathroom. Nice fluffy towels and a face cloth, which so many places don’t have unfortunately. Hand lotions etc etc are of a good quality. Nice hospitality tray including biscuits and teas. This is a very large, old, semi-detached property, with fantastic high ceilings, furnished with older style furniture etc. There’s a very large lounge. Certain aspects mirror the age of the property such as the decor and wiring and so on but overall this is a large traditional building of a certain age. Breakfast is excellent. Plenty of choice, with good ingredients. You won’t go hungry!! Dietary requirements are well catered for. The scrambled eggs with smoked salmon was very good (however the food comes very quickly, infact I was still eating my cereal when my cooked breakfast arrived, same with another table the previous day, so this is something to learn from - a gap in serving food is definitely required, especially when you’re on holiday and not in a rush!) The establishment is well located for South Cliff and the lovely gardens. Car parking tokens for on-street car parking are provided. We went to Lookout on the Pier - recommended for very informal dining of great seafood (limited menu), and we also went to Tuscany Too, two minutes walk from the B&B, which was “ok”. Representing reasonable value for money, we would recommend staying at this B&B for a few days next to the sea.

Massive thank you to Rebecca & James wonderful hosts nothing was too much trouble they went above and beyond our expectations, lovely large rooms with nice comfy beds and a lovely modern bathroom,the food is absolutely fantastic so a massive thumbs up all round we would not hesitate to book again. Many thanks Pete Mcbrinn

This is a lovely guest house! The couple who run it are friendly, professional and helpful, and the hotel is comfortable, attractively furnished and spotlessly clean. They offer breakfast, which is pre-ordered and so individually cooked, using top-quality produce, apparently locally sourced wherever possible. There are no other dining room meals, but by request a cold platter can be delivered to your room for a supper at any time in the evening. I ordered a cheese slate which sported five local (and delicious) cheeses served with crusty bread, several different crackers, pickled onions, olives, two different chutneys, walnuts and dried apricots - a real feast. The hotel is situated only a couple of hundred yards from the cliff top in beautiful South Bay. It was a lovely stay and I hope to return.

Been to the cordelia many times now and it never fails to deliver and the delicious walnut cake on arrival is always a nice touch. The bedrooms, dining room and lounge are all beautifully decorated. We chose room one which has a big comfy bed , lovely seating area by the window . The bathroom is big with a large bath and separate enclosed shower, lovely toiletries and big soft towels. The breakfasts are amazing with quality produce and good coffee. You can choose what you want for breakfast on a tick list the day before and drop it in the bowl outside the dining room. Parking is easy with a street permit given to you on arrival. Thanks for a lovely anniversary break and we can't wait to return. Love Allan and Carole.
