Very dour greeting from a unfriendly owner. Shown to our room - what a shock. the furniture came from a jumble sale and was very unstable. The TV did not work as the socket was broken. They were unable to mend it. Shown to a new room which was better. this one had a leaking shower. We had no hot... More

Didn't know what to expect after reading other reviews but I was pleasantly surprised with The Havelock. My room was booked at the last minute for a 5 night stay and was adequte for my needs. It was cleaned daily and though smelling a bit musty, a common problem with older basement rooms, was comfortable. Breakfast was plentiful but some... More

For the price it was excellent that means alot to two Senior Ladies but also very clean and plenty of food to eat both hot and cold with the owners and staff asking would you like anymore. Also we chatted to other people who also appeared to have enjoyed their stay of a weekend. We stayed two weeks and as... More

Please remove the cheesy cheap faded plastic flag bunting from your rails - very ugly and I kept thinking there was someone on the balcony when the wind would blow (always). The front desk area was never staffed and no one to ask questions to. The woman who showed us our room was not friendly. Had to ask for a... More

Having head previous reviews we were a little worried. However we soon found this was unfounded the owners were very pleasant and could not do enough for us. We had a large airy room with our own balcony. The rooms were cleaned daily and bedding changed half way through the week. We had a very good choice of food for... More

Like other reviewers, we were very put off by some of the comments left by other guests but decided to continue with the booking. Over the years we have travelled extensively and stayed in accommodation ranging from primitive to luxurious. We were only going to Jersey for a short break (5 nights) and didn’t want anywhere especially expensive as we... More

Welcome and Service - poor, indifferent, unfriendly. Our ensuite room was outdated, cold and smelt musty. The beds very uncomfortable, bedding very poor. Coffee powder supplied in bedroom out of date! The breakfast very poor - tinned mushrooms, odd coloured sausages, cheap nasty coffee, cheap nasty butter spread. The guesthouse is in desperate need of updating and owners need to... More

On reading previous reviews of the Havelock that were unfairly exaggerated negativeIy we feel compelled to write our own review as we have stayed there on several previous occasions. We have stayed at the Havelock for three years in a row and enjoyed each stay. For this year and last year we had a seaview with balcony. The rooms are... More

I have never been compelled to leave a review ever before, but this place was so, so bad that we left 1 day into our 7 nights as it would have simply ruined our holiday. Thankfully when having been meet with the customary rude greeting on arrival and when they demand all the money there and then before we could... More
