Ranscombe House

Pip is a very welcoming host, the building is beautiful, our room was comfortable and well appointed, breakfast was delicious and the location is perfect for both coastal and town access. Thoroughly recommended! We were only here for one night but it would be an ideal base for a longer break too.

Although the room was quite small, it was perfectly adequate for a couple nights stay as in our case & and lovely view across the harbour and bay from a small window beside the bed. The bed very comfortable and a good size king. Bedside table on left hand side and a dressing table doubled up as the other bedside table. A wardrobe and beside that, a little table for tea/coffee making stand. Bottles of tap water a nice touch and useful. next to that was the door to the ensuite and next to that was the bedroom door. This made up the whole room, no room for a chair or extra table to sit at if you wanted to use your laptop or tablet. However, there is plenty of suitable seating in other areas in the house that you could use for this purpose. There are plenty of hooks on back of doors, a large drawer in the base of the wardrobe with quite a lot of space and hangers. On top of the wardrobe was a small TV with a remote control. The ensuite is compact but lots of storage. The corner shower was an okay size but a bit small if you are a slightly larger person as I am, then it is a tad tight but doable. The B&B house is quite charming, old world but with modern touches and some nice seating areas for the use of guests. Staff were all friendly and helpful and letting us park in the car park before our room was ready so we could go and get lunch and come back later. Everywhere including our room was very clean and tidy. The place felt very homely and welcoming. A short walk to the town and outer harbour in the other direction took about 5 minutes. It is down hill going and a uphill coming back with steps and bit steep hill to tackle. I have slight mobility issues but I managed reasonably well with a little help when needed from my husband. All in all a nice place to stay in a good location at a reasonable price.

Ranscombe House was perfect for our needs , we only stayed for one night we arrived a bit early and asked to leave the car at their car park which was ok. Went into town which isn’t that far away. Pip was a great host the room was perfect very clean and comfortable, breakfast was very tasty and plenty of choice. We had a free upgrade and the view from the midships room are great. Overall we had a great stay and will definitely be back. Thank you Pip for making making us feel at home.
