The Olive Branch

I had a great stay and will definitely come back, thanks a lot. The only downside was the location.

“Relaxing break, great location and accommodation.”

Breakfast offered something for everyone, and the food quality was clearly good; we felt warmly welcomed and everything was handled with ease. The B&B was spotless, well presented, and the charming prints on the walls made us smile.

“The Olive Branch is a highly professional bnb, efficiently run, well- located (no sea view)”

- Judy was very welcoming, explained everything and 'took me through the town' on the map. Great preparation for my next three days. - Breakfast was delicious - fresh fruit with seeds and dried fruits, smoked salmon and slightly-too-salty scrambled eggs, hot toast, coffee (and I asked for hot milk for it which was delivered with a smile). - My room had everything I could possibly need, well designed, neat and tidy. - I received an email instructing me to arrive at specific times, implying I'd not be welcome (or perhaps not even be allowed in) if I arrived after 6pm. My three connecting trains, if on time, would arrive so that I'd reach the address by about 6.30. So I called but was not met with friendliness and understanding. This is a service industry (I also work in a service industry) and the customer needs to feel cared for including arrangements for arrival. - The condiments for the toast, indeed the whole menu, had to be selected the night before, instead of being put in normal jars on the table to choose from at the time. I had duly selected marmalade and found one spoonful was put beside my place in a little dish. I felt this was mean-minded. - Given the very high quality of almost everything, I was disappointed by the pillows: lumpy, thin, as if filled with cotton balls, and both the same (usually, there is one bigger harder one and one thinner softer one, to cover individual needs). The pillow determines a person's quality of sleep. I do hope you will update them

“Ontspannen sfeer en heerlijk ontbijt en gezellige gastvrouw en gastheer”

The host’s hospitality was great, and everything else was fine.
