Adelaide Guesthouse

This lovely little guest house , was spotless and homely comfortable bed the owners Pauline and David could not have been more accommodating, will definitely be back especially for the best breakfast 👍

The location is good,the guest house,generally,is clean,as was our room,a few nice touches & a comfy bed too.Breakfast was plentiful. However,we found the atmosphere somewhat regimented,with a very small time frame for breakfast. The lady owner sat in the dining room talking,loudly,to another guest,constantly throughout our breakfast making it quite uncomfortable & we have never had this before - breakfast elsewhere,has been relaxed. The conversation was about covid & covid measures past & present,her opinions re others & her neighbours,sorry,it's not professional. There are signs everywhere re sanitiser,masks & when we left,the lady owner wouldn't take our keys that I was handing to her - instead,she asked me to put them into a bowl for her to sanitise - no sooner had I done so,she began spraying them with sanitiser! For us,this made us feel like we'd got a disease or something. I realise the owners wish the place to be clean & that's fine,but this,in our opinion,is over the top & again,never known this before,even when we travelled in 2020. We didn't find the lady owner friendly towards us at all,when we left,she barely made eye contact with us. She never asked for example,how we'd slept,how we'd travelled to them,where we'd come from etc, the usual chit chat - this all adds to a nice friendly atmosphere,but was noticably lacking here. Her husband seemed a friendlier person when I spoke with him though. The ceiling rose in the bedroom needs attention.....bare wires are exposed!

All of the previous reviews are 100% accurate. The guesthouse is immaculate, the cleanest tidiest place we have ever stayed at. Room was lovely and airy bed really comfortable. David and Pauline could not do enough for you The breakfast which was included was incredible all freshly cooked. Cannot recommend highly enough. After our first visit it feels like we have made friends with the incredible hosts. We will be back

Fabulous guest house; room spotlessly clean with everything needed including hairdryer. Lovely breakfast with everything you can think of and really tasty.Great value for money, thankyou Pauline and Dave. Steve and Jan H

My wife & I stayed for one night 16th June 2022 ,our room was spotlessly clean and comfortable. We had an enjoyable breakfast. Pauline and David were perfect hosts. Would definitely recommend and stay here again.

We found our stay (1 night) very good. In regard to some of the slightly more negative comments it must be remembered that you are effectively staying in someone's house - yes it is being run as a B&B but it isn't a Premier Inn. Despite Covid in the rear view mirror as I write this, the owners are still keeping some of the regulations in place for their peace of mind and other guests. And as Tom Hanks used to say "wear a mask, it is the least you can do" Location is spot-on. Not right on the sea-front but a short walk up through the main street gets you to the pier in no time at all. Cleanliness is first rate. Great bed. Plentiful well cooked breakfast. You would be very hard pushed to find this level of quality at the price point so if you do need a room in Clacton go for it. Just one quick thing there are three parking spots at the front of the building. As there is a busy road at times it is best to reverse park

Wonderful comfy guesthouse full of charm. Fantastic hosts. Very enjoyable breakfast. Lovely room and quaint little garden. Would definitely revisit when in the area will definitely recommend 👌.Thanks for a lovely weekend.
