“What a find, after years of staying in local hotels I found this B&B through an internet search. So very clean and friendly, Pat cooks a fantastic breakfast too! I will not stay anywhere else in Halifax.
The rooms do need redecoration, but the place is spotlessly clean.
A real pleasure, which for me - has made working away from my family - so much more enjoyable, as I can relax in genuinely clean surroundings - which cannot be said for many of the well known hotel chains. And much cheaper too!!!!  Thank you Pat!” James 20/07/09
