Always have an amazing stay at Southern Cross Guest House. You’re always made to feel very welcome and the rooms are so comfortable and there’s everything you need.

A beautiful, quiet, clean and comfortable hotel and bedroom. Loved the history of the building. Extremely weloming and friendly service. Our hosts went above and beyond. We will definitely be back and were so grateful for the wonderful care given to us. Parking on site was easy and the local pub a short walk away. Highly recommend, thoroughly enjoyed the cream tea and delicious breakfast.

We received a lovely warm welcome to this incredibly charismatic guest house. Stayed in a twin room with my sister as we were passing through on our travels - the room was clean and warm, and the beds were comfy. Breakfast was good - cereals, full English and toast. Would definitely return, and would highly recommend.
