Seemed to be a bit "new at the guest house game" as there were not enough towels in room at 4pm, although this was rectified without need to ask. Room was OK however friends who had smaller room at... more

It is located in a prime area and commuting is very convenient from the guest house. Such... more

We obviously had a better experience than most of the reviewers as this place was perfect for us, but then we only paid £50 pn for large ensuit with a double bed + 2 singles + breakfast (through laterooms). Good location with Aurthors seat for views & 15/20 min walk to the centre, few nice pubs, restaurants & shops nearby.... more

Booked accommodation in January 2009 for stay in August 2009 and paid 50% deposit. On arrival apparently I had been "double booked" and was moved to another guest house, and moved back to Mayville on third night. My booking was for an ensuite room but I had only shared facilities at both establishments. Finished breakfast plates in Mayville seem to... more
