Living with Host
Millbridge House is a large Victorian house with 2 letting bedrooms. I’m a retired mum of three grown up children who have all flown the nest, so you are welcome to share my home with me! The modern bathroom with shower is for your own use and you have use of the kitchen with microwave & toaster etc.

I had a great stay with Sandi. Lovely big room with lots of light and a lovely view towards the sea. Free parking and an easy flat walk to the theatres. Sandi was the perfect host. I felt at home instantly😊

This was an absolutely delightful place to stay. I was in the single room and it was comfy and gorgeous. Lovely walk into town and Sandi is a dream host.

I had a very enjoyable and comfortable week in the double room in Sandi's spacious house. Sandi made me feel very welcome. Bed was comfy, shower was great, and the kitchen had everything you need. A 15-20 minute flat walk to the Princess through Torre Abbey grounds (or along the road at night - felt safe). The nearby Co-op was also very handy. House was a tad chilly during a cold snap, though I wasn't bothered - but something to bear in mind if you do feel the cold. Would definitely return.

A lovely clean room, a short 10min bike ride from the theatre (with minimal hill). Sandi allowed me to use the front room for yoga in the mornings which was much appreciated.

Thank you for being such a lovely host Sandra. Lewis and I enjoyed our stay in your lovely home.
31st Aug 2019
Sandra was a lovely host. Her home was very clean, easy walk to the theatre & the bed was comfy. Confusing to find on maps but she then directed me on the phone. The only thing I think would make it better is a kettle in the bedroom for convenience.
31st Aug 2019
Sandra was lovely and very welcoming! The house was beautiful and the room i stayed in large and comfortable. Its a fair walk to the theatre, but the end is by the seafront, so is a nice walk to do in the morning! Would definitely stay here again!
5th Jul 2019
Aw thank you so much Katie. It would be wonderful to have you here again too!!
