Meru and Dave that own the Sanderling are a lovely helpful couple. The guest house is very comfortable, well furnished and clean. The dining room was lovely, I didn't have breakfast there but other guests told me it was great. There is a small bar selling drinks which I enjoyed. The only thing I think would improve it is to have a lounge. Would definitely recommend it though.

Was told we would have a double room but we ended up with a twin. The beds were old and creaky and you could feel the springs when you turned over. The breakfast wasnt very nice either, the sausage and bacon was rubbery. Staff were nice.

Well located just off the walkway on the beach. Freindly greating on arrival.Room was very nice and comfortable. Breakfast very disapointing and we were told we were at the wrong table when we sat waiting for service. No name or reservation on any table to say were to sit. Breakfast was underwelming and very quiet breakfast room. Sanderling was adequate for our needs for the night.
