Beautiful authentic seaside bed and brekfast. Literally a stones throw from the ocean. Tammy met us at the property and she was so lovely to chat with and get local history from. We went for dinner at the local pub. I would suggest making reservations in advance we went off season and it was a half hr wait. Luckily we went back to the inn and had a nice glass of wine in the front dining area. So peaceful and gorgeous 360 degrees. We had the double bed room and it was perfect for mother and daughter. The continental breakfast was well thought out and prepared. Thank you Tammy for the lovely stay. 5 stars!

Very well appointed. Comfort is at the forefront… basket of Afghans in the sitting room for chilly evenings or sitting out on the deck, bottles of water in the room, board games, magazines. Fresh coffee, home made breads and jams. Warm, soft, clean bedding. Home is beautifully decorated with antique treasures. View of the ocean is stunning.

Our host called earlier in the day to confirm our arrival and review check in procedures during hours and after. When we arrived we were offered a free upgrade as availability allowed and our host gave us a tour of the home and dining options. Our room was cozy and comfortable. This property has a beautiful sitting area surrounded by windows… a lovely spot. Our host was welcoming and warm and was happy to chat and answer our questions. A lovely place to stay while in Dildo.
