Armistead Cottage B&B

We had the pleasure of staying at this lovely B&B for 2 nights last week. We were warmly greeted by Charles, the innkeeper, who immediately made us feel very welcomed and showed us around. There is a delightful front porch with several comfortable places to sit and read, enjoy a cup of tea or just listen to the birds. Inside there was a lovely living room, gorgeous dining room and a little kitchenette where there was a refrigerator stocked with various sodas and bottles of water. And quite a unique collection of carrot everything!! Up a flight of stairs to the three guest rooms where we found our lovely 4 poster king bed, good size bathroom and lots of closet space with extra pillows and blankets (if needed). A delicious breakfast was made and served by Charles and Tanya (his helper). Charles asked about food allergies before we arrived and everything was perfect! One morning he made grilled peaches with just a hint of nutmeg and cinnamon, followed by 2 kinds of brioche and then one morning scrambled eggs with toast and artfully arranged strawberries and blueberries as well as coffee, tea and juice! The following morning he served grilled bananas, I had blueberry yogurt and a frittata. The B&B also has plenty of parking included in the room rate. Not a far walk from the famous cliff walk and an easy drive into the center of town and the beaches. Charles could not have been more gracious, kind and helpful. A delightful stay in a beautiful home!

I just returned from spending three glorious nights at the Armistead Cottage. I highly recommend it. The bed was comfortable and the Carrot Room is something that must be seen to believe. The Innkeeper, Charles, was so welcoming and gracious. We spent three glorious nights there and from the peaceful front porch to the delicious breakfast each day, everything was just perfect. It is located in a quiet residential area about a 6 or 7 minute drive to Thames Street and the Mansions.
