    Our bed could of used a new mattress, but wasn’t worried about sleeping on it for a few days.

    Simon and Johnathan were brilliant hosts, nothing was too much trouble. The breakfast was top notch. The Avenue itself was in walking distance to the beach and the town centre, so brilliantly located.

    Nothing.

    We liked everything about our stay. The location was perfect, a short walk to the esplanade, old village and town centre. Excellent hosts in Jonathon and Simon, who were very welcoming, nothing was ever any trouble and couldn't do enough for us. Our room was a great size and well furnished with all the amenities we required. Breakfast was well presented and excellent quality. Would certainly use it again and highly recommend it.

    There was nothing that we disliked.

    Everything was good. Simon and Jonathan (father and son) are efficient and brilliant hosts. We felt that every effort was made to ensure that our stay was the best it good be. The breakfast was lovely. On the days that I didn't fancy a cooked breakfast I simply had toast. Simon made the best fruit salad I have ever had. We requested an extra large room because we live in a small, gardenless flat. The room was huge and felt like pure luxury as did the garden and conservatory. The location was close to bus routes, rail station, beach, town centre and Old Town. This meant that travelling without a car was not at all problematic.

    An outstanding B&B which made an outstanding stay even more outstanding

    Not an issue for us but the house is as the house is, a property built some time ago long before any consideration for disability so if someone cannot cope with stairs The Avenue would not be for them

    Generally Simon and Jonathan go the extra mile to ensure guests’ stay is made as good as they can make it. What stood out? The welcome: a leisurely cup of tea while they get all the housekeeping details sorted Breakfast: just outstanding Local knowledge: Simon has a lifelong experience of the island so the master of any local detail Little extras: all reasonable requests entertained like non-standard tea bags for the bedroom

    As I was recovering from knee replacement a lift would have helped ,but Simon gave us a room on the first floor- so managed very well, and the few stairs were good exercise

    Felt at home, Simon and Johnthan so willing to help with ANYTHING
