The beds were very comfortable although the pillows were rather insubstantial. Room was bright and spacious. Fridge on landing. Close to beach and town. Hosts were lovely.

Guest House was easy to find and had great help with parking. We were extremely well looked after. Room was spacious and very clean and tidy :) Great view overlooking the sea front. Breakfast was top notch and nothing too much trouble. Absolutely perfect break and will be rebooking as soon as possible. I would be more than happy recommending The Middleham and will certainly be doing so!! Many thanks!!

Could not fault
The Middleham was a great, Mick and Shelia are very friendly and helpful. The breakfast was very nice and plenty of it to set you up for the day. Room very clean and comfortable. Location was central and you could walk to the Town. Parking permits were provided only £1.00 per day.

“I enjoyed it”

See above
Breakfast was good. Felt the room a little poky at first and could have done with more drawer space, but I soon got used to it. Obviously if you have a single room it's not going to be spacious. Lounge did not have a window view and I would probably have found it difficult if the weather had been bad, but fortunately that was not the case. Would be happy to return.
