On arrival at hotel we were greeted and pointed to our room. The room was at the back of the hotel on the ground floor. The room initial impression was dark. I get the use of energy saving lights but probably needs a higher wattage to light up first impressions. The room had a fridge (unstocked), a small TV and the usual kettle and limited tea and coffee with small number of plastic milk containers. The bathroom was backing into this room and smelt of disinfectant (TCP?) . 
The back room was large with a double and a single bed. 
Ok - now the negs. Carpet felt 'dirty' underfoot and well troden. The walls in the back room were awful. Slimy and not clean. The back room appeared to be at the end of a road and so I felt uncomfortable leaving window open to air the room. Also noise from the road kept me awake at times especially with somebody trying to park their car late at night. 
Contacted the hotelier about the room, and got a response that they would sort in the morning. We were there for one night. To their credit they did not ultimately charge for the room but the room should not have been offered without it being cleaned down. 


Not for us. 

Having to attend a friend’s event north of Great Yarmouth on Monday morning and wanting to avoid having to drive up from London early we were after a B&B for Sunday evening and picked on this one as it was a reasonable tariff for the Superior Double room on a room only basis, which suited us as we didn’t really have time for a full English breakfast.
I was a bit suspicious of the number of one post wonders bigging up this B&B with five star reviews here but there were enough genuine reviews, especially on other booking sites, that convinced us to go for it and overall it was the right decision.
Bit of a strange set up as I got the impression the owners do not live here but have other properties. On arrival you have to phone a mobile number plastered on the front door and then someone (possibly the owner) comes to let you in and explains how things work, and most importantly sorts out the resident parking permit if you have come by car and gives you the number to contact if you have any problems.
As mentioned, we went for the Superior double (Room 3 and the one in most of the photos) which was quite spacious and big enough to accommodate both a double and single bed and a two-seater sofa without feeling cramped. It was generally clean, with fresh bed linen and fresh towels. However, the carpet had not been hoovered as the glitter sequins from the previous Saturday nights revellers who stayed in the room were still all over the carpet. But, in fairness I am sure they would have sorted it out if we had contacted them, but it wasn’t a big issue for us as we were only there for one night and more interested in watching the men’s singles final at Wimbledon in our room than being disturbed again. And this point was outweighed by the several positives with the room (nice décor, plenty of Teas and coffee and milks, free water bottles, a small box of essentials in case you forgot them, an efficient upright fan heater, power points by the bed with smart phone charging points and very efficient and fast enough Wi-fi).
This first floor room is front facing and benefits from large bay windows which makes it quite light. But the downside is that it faces the street and the street is quite busy as it is full of B&B properties with people coming and going, especially due to its proximity close to the seafront. And the other noise issue is the seagulls who perch on nearly every chimney pot., However this is an issue for the whole of Great Yarmouth not just this B&B as an evening stroll round some of the residential back streets north of the town showed that they are a real problem for everyone here. Fortunately, this is where the upright fan was very useful as when on cold setting its not too loud to be intrusive, but loud enough to drown out street conversations and take the edge of the squawking flying nuisances.
The location is very close to the seafront, and its only a two minute walk to the Brittania Pier and the start of the so called “Golden Mile”. So you are close to all the fast food and slot machine action if this is important. However if you are after decent restaurants and food pubs that provide an alternative to chips you will be hard pushed to find them in what passes as the golden mile nowadays. But my recommendations would be the Mermaid Bar of the Prom Hotel, opposite the Arc Cinema, which I thought was the best of an average bunch for real ales and pub food. And then the Lion pub round the corner further away from the seafront was a cosy friendly locals pub for a quite pint. But the best pubs in Great Yarmouth are more around the North and South Quays on the other side of town closer to the river.


Very reasonable for the price

Really good place , I can walk to restaurants and beach and attractions.  I will absolutely vist again. Room is very clean, the bed is comfortable , hotels helper are very nice. Parking is easy, next to hotels, I recommend guest can stay two or three nights because great Yarmouth is good for travel

Room : double bed, ensuite.
Spotlessly clean. Room attended to daily. Thoughtful extras provided and replenished daily.
I have spent a lot of time travelling and staying in hotels/guest houses and this one is something very special.
All down to the owners.

A 6 night holiday to a town I have previously spent much time in.

Me and my mother visited for 2 nights in August for a little get away, after reading the great reviews we booked and were not disappointed.

The owners Serene and Stanley were nothing but lovely, kind, helpful and attentive for the duration of our stay.  From the moment we booked they filled us full of confidence it was the right choice and even reserved a free parking spot right outside the B&B for our arrival. 

We booked a superior twin room which had a double bed and single as well as private en suite. It was immaculate, comfy and had everything we needed, it even had a little box of "Forget me nots" which were items you may forget... toothbrush, cotton wall,sewing kit, ear buds etc, such a lovely touch. 

The beds are beyond comfortable and we slept so well we couldn't have asked for more. There was a fridge in the room which had bottled water in and there was plenty of tea and coffee, which was refilled every day. 

We paid for breakfast (£7pp per breakfast) and it was well worth it, you pre order but have a really good selection, including full English, kippers, omelette, ceral, toast and juice. 

We will definitely be returning to the B&B, it was not only was immaculate inside, it was on the outside too and when you walk down the road "The Beach House" certainly stands out from the rest. 

We are so grateful to Serene and Stanley for there amazing hospitality, such a delightful B&B.

A hidden Gem!

Lovely friendly B&B hosts were excellent couldn’t do enough for you. A brilliant breakfast as well.nicely decorated rooms, spotless clean and very comfortable beds. The sweetie’s are an added bonus and nice touch by the hosts.

Excellent

A great seaside B&B. Family business where the friendly owners are hands on with everything and really go the extra mile to make your stay enjoyable. For example, on my visit, they went to a lot of trouble to arrange low carb breakfast options for a diabetic guest. Light airy rooms and pleasant dining area with bright modern decor on a breezy beach theme. Very clean and well-kept. Small courtyard at front with seating. Tasty and generous home-cooked breakfasts. Quite a steep staircase to upper floor rooms so book the ground floor suite if you have mobility challenges. Central location: a short 3 minute walk from beachfront and cinema and around a 5 minute walk to town centre shopping or a large Sainsbury's with petrol. Round the corner from a convenience store open to 11pm and a local fish & chip shop if you arrive late and need to pick up food/drinks.  About a 15 minute walk from train station or 5 minutes from coach stop if using public transport. Car parking by arrangement as well. Overall, quite exceptional service and excellent value for money.

Highly recommended

A lovely Lil gem the owners were lovely n welcoming they even moved their own car so we could park outside nothing was too much trouble for them
The room was completely spotless so clean n tidy and the little things like a box with items in that you may of forgotten to bring with you only thing which was my fault was breakfast I thought it was included but to be fair it didn't matter as we don't eat early anyway we definitely will come back again 

A nice Lil gem

Simply perfect. The owners were friendly and helpful .. even coming to find me when I took a wrong turn en route from the station. I stayed in the cleanest room I've ever seen. Breakfast was delicious .. generous portion of kippers, delicious full English (and yes they are happy to swap things eg if you don't really want mushrooms!). I loved staying here, and I shall definitely be going back.

Clean, friendly, perfectly lovely.

Lovely clean room. Great breakfast and most accommodating host. We had everything we needed for a perfect stay. This b and b is a 3 min walk to main shopping street and 4 minutes to the sea front. Parking is good and gave us a free space so no charges. Would highly recommend if you want somewhere respectable.
