The Boathouse was a lovely place to stay - late October but very warm and cosy. It has been thoughtfully renovated and decorated. Beds and furniture were very comfortable and everything was super clean! It was lovely to be so near the sea and a welcoming and friendly pub.

We really enjoyed our stay in Little Haven especially exploring the beautiful coast line and local pubs. The Boathouse is a lovely property and very central. I think there could be some improvements made to the bedding and soft furnishings to make it more comfortable. Maybe looking at securing the windows down stairs so they can be left open to circulate the air. We did enjoy our stay!
