10 / 10Outstanding·Sep 2026

French Bay House is in a great location, just a 5 to 10 minute flat walk around the bay to town. There are restaurants and shops close by. The room was spacious and beautifully decorated, the bed was comfortable and the shower was strong and hot. The best part was the delicious freshly cooked breakfast that was provided each morning. The hosts were friendly and welcoming and we appreciated the complementary glass of wine. This is a great place to stay.

10 / 10Outstanding·Aug 2026

The property is charming, full of character, warm and inviting. Rhonda is a wonderful host and the breakfast she provided was generous and delicious. The bedroom and amenities are very comfortable.

Nothing negative

10 / 10Outstanding·Aug 2026

A beautifully presented historic house, in a perfect location. Manager Rhonda super friendly, helpful and professional, and cooked up a scrumptious breakfast. Room was so cosy, towels so fluffy, and special mention for the heated bathroom floor!

That we couldn’t stay longer.
