“An absolute gem!”

Poppy's

14 Aug 2007

We had two friends over from South Africa whose grandparents came from Plymouth so we decided to take them there for the weekend. I saw Poppy's on lastminute.com and then checked the reviews on tripadvisor.com and decided it was worth a try. What a pleasant surprise - every aspect of our stay was wonderful. The location is excellent - Diane (ever friendly and helpful) provided safe parking for our car and we were able to walk everywhere as we were so close to the main areas of interest. The rooms we were given (3 and 6) were a delight. Spotlessly clean, freshly decorated and a very nice size with high ceilings. Our room had a shower in one corner and then a small room with a toilet and basin. There was plenty of tea, milk and biscuits - not the usual stingy one or two. The very reasonable rate included a full cooked breakfast served by the very sweet Lauren. The only thing we'd change would be to have less toast as we each had far too much and it was a shame for it to be wasted. Plymouth itself was also a pleasant discovery with lots to do - unfortunately the Elizabethan house was closed but the Gin Distillery tour was very interesting. All in all a great weekend - we highly recommend Poppy's and will be back ourselves!

This is an excellent guesthouse, and Diane blazes a trail in customer service. I stayed at Poppy's for an event in May 2007, and saw some of the other accomodation around Plymouth that others in the event party were using. My advice is - stay at Poppy's. Lovely en suite room, great breakfast, and Diane is endlessly helpful. Thanks so much for making it a very enjoyable experience. Niamh.

Well what can I say?!

Diane who runs Poppy`s cant do enough for you. Very friendly lady. She adds a touch of class to her Guest House. Everything is very clean with lovely touches. Situated within walking distance of everywhere. Price of room includes continental and full cooked english. Prices are extremely good value. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay and will return there.
Dont bother with other B+B`s Diane has it cracked!!
