    The rooms were well-appointed and really pretty. the stay was enjoyable due to the convenient location of the property. - I ate a few times at the Hurst Campus, which is within walking distance from the guesthouse. The Albourne Guesthouse in Somerset West offers beautifully decorated rooms and a convenient location, making it a great choice for a comfortable stay. the guesthouse's proximity to Hurst Campus also provides easy access to dining options within walking distance.

    This charming guesthouse is located conveniently close to many attractions, making it a perfect spot to rest after a busy day. the rooms are spacious and well-equipped with everything you may need, including modern bathrooms, air-conditioning, and an impressive Nespresso machine. the service is impeccable, with a friendly and welcoming staff who is ready to assist you with anything. the breakfast is superb, and the garden next to the pool is a sight to behold.

    The location of the rooms at the boundary may lead to some noise from the road, but the charm of the guesthouse more than makes up for it.
