Bessietown receives consistent high reviews on booking.com and the rating is well deserved. We (wife and I) spent one night at Bessietown and our only regret is that our travel plans did not permit a longer stay. Services offered were excellent. Our accommodation was superb, being large, well equipped with a very high standard of cleanliness. The hosts were great and provided a very nice breakfast. We recommend Bessietown as a place to say. You won't be disappointed.

Beautiful guest house, really just lovely and welcoming. I had a night here when doing a long commute and it felt like a piece of home. It was comfy, well decorated and quiet and Leanne was an excellent host. Breakfast was generous and satisfying and I couldn’t be happier!

What a great find. A proper B&B in all the right ways. A large city centre town house sympathetically laid out whilst retaining great features. Plenty of permit parking nearby. A great hostess and a fabulous breakfast offering. Thoroughly recommended.
