Warm, personal & unrushed check-in by Margaret. Loved the room with view of the island. Spotless and immaculate bedroom and throughout. Our son was doing the 1/2 marathon so we had to leave before breakfast. Margaret gave us a takeaway breakfast

Loved it!

We loved staying at the Minerva Guesthouse. The hosts are lovely and thoughtful. as are the staff. It's really what makes this place special. The location is excellent, right near the beach for an early morning or evening walk when the tide is out. Our room for three was tight but with everything we needed: an excellent shower, comfortable, clean bed, and closet space. Go for the location, but stay for the hosts.
