I stayed at this bed and breakfast for the third time within a year, once more driving down from Perth to visit family in Ipswich. Yet again, a great welcome greeted me from Richard and Sally, and I find this place to be such a peaceful oasis away from the hurly burly of modern day life. The breakfast is superb.... More

I stay in this guest house at least once a month with work and would never go anywhere else! Sally and Richard are the perfect hosts and make sure you are well looked after during your stay! Their English breakfast is a must!!! Locally/freshly sourced, or brought in from real suppliers the breakfast is a real highlight and memory! The... More

Due to a cancelation we were moved to the lodge before we had time to unpack. Very warm welcome and show around the guest house. Very comfortable room and a great breakfast. Exceptional customer service as nothing seemed too much trouble e.g lighter tog quilt, iron, ironing board. We would recommend the gust house to anyone without hesitation

In terms of working the room is well-lit and has well-located sockets and free WiFi. And the room itself is cosy and beautifully decorated with the... More

Sally and Richard obviously work really hard to maintain a high standard here. Room 1 was well decorated and perfectly clean. The shower room was tiny but again perfectly clean. Considering they own a labrador, you'd never know it as the hotel does not have that tell tale doggy smell. The breakfast was to die for - possibly the best... More

Sidegate Guest House exceeds my criteria offering top class accommodation and breakfast. Richard and Sally are totally guest focused and Eki, the house labrador is an excellent host fully... More
