Guests consistently mention the property's spotless condition and high standards of cleanliness. The repeated commendations for its cleanliness suggest that Walebeck is maintained to an exceptional level.
The property's location is frequently highlighted as a major advantage, being close to the town centre and harbour with great views. The convenience of a short walk to local amenities and the benefit of off-road parking are also well-received.
Many reviews describe the property as cosy, warm, and comfortable, with reclining sofas and a garden to relax in. However, a few guests mentioned the beds being a bit hard, which slightly impacts the overall comfort score.

Guests have expressed appreciation for the thoughtful extras provided, such as tea, biscuits, and milk. While these gestures are warmly received, it is important to note that such extras are subject to change and may not be guaranteed for every stay.
