Andrea and Graham are lovely and very welcoming! Their home is gorgeous. Great bedroom, great bathroom. All the little touches are lovely. Their cats are fantastic too and love a cuddle. The bed is incredibly comfortable and I didn't want to get...

It really was cosy, our host Andrea made us feel very welcome and helped out with local information. I needed to make a small repair of some clothing and she found me a sewing set to use.

Incredibly comfortable bed in a beautiful room and gorgeous historic home. Andrea was so kind and welcoming- the location so close to the beaches and great restaurants was fantastic, we would have loved to stay much longer.

Lucky you - stepping into the best bedroom within our warm and very welcoming 1920's home in the heart of St Clair. You will marvel at the original high ornate ceiling, quality soft furnishings and decorative fireplace feature. While you battle with stopping at just one of the delicious freshly homemade cookies in your jar, enjoy the Work/Study Nook which we have stylishly sectioned off from your bed with a room divider. There's even a Monitor and HDMI cord provided for your use. Perfect! CAT LOVERS rejoice - we have overly friendly Crumpet (a Burmese), and his little brother Huey (British Shorthair). They have free roam of the house and limited concept of your personal space however are contained in their own quarters at night. If Cats are not your thing or you are allergic, please use your discretion when booking. Location location location... we are mere minutes' walk on the flat from St Clair Beach and its range of fantastic Eateries and boutique shops.
Thank you for considering us for your stay. There are just the two of us here, my partner Graham who is a professional Photographer/Videographer/ Drone operator and hails from Essex UK. I am a Pastry Chef! We're very friendly and easy going and would warmly welcome similar guests. Our evenings are usually spent avoiding the computer.
Take a long inhale of the clean salty ocean air which also permeates your freshly laundered bed linen - we are mere minutes' walk from St Clair Beach.
