What a great place and what a breakfast
Fabulous location on the cliff top and wonderful views of the ocean. We weren't in Whale season,but if we had been they would have been in touching distance. Stewart and his wife Will, run a great business, really friendly and engaging and everything is top quality, from towels to bedding and loads of lovely detail. Major highlight were the breakfasts which rank as the best ever. Presentation stunning, food so fresh and always varied. Little gem this one

What an experience!
Have to say 65 on Cliff wins the best guesthouse we have ever stayed at. From the moment we arrived, till the day we left, we could not fault anything. The decor and furnishings are next level, the view is splendid, the whole experience was truly remarkable. The breakfast was something to be seen, and the home baked croissants made breakfast so exciting every day. Well done to Willemien and her team.

Hard To Imagine Anything Better
The past excellent reviews say it all. Great hosts, breakfast is a work of art and views are amazing. We did not come during whale season (can only imagine when it feels like the whales are in your room!), but great wildlife and beautiful coastal walk and sunset. Eat dinner this time of year before sunset as everything closes early and if you enjoy yourself to long you are not left with good options (this would have been easily solved if we had asked, but did not even think hard to find restaurant at 9 pm).

Beautiful spot
My wife and I stayed there for one night and had a very nice time and an excellent breakfast that came with the room. The food was very, very good and the hostess more than willing to modify the meal to suit allergies and dietary concerns. The other guests were all very friendly and obviously enjoying the B&B as well. The host was very friendly and helped us organize a dinner away from the B&B...although we subsequently heard the meal at the B&B was excellent!!

Fantastic views of whales in the bay
Stuart the English owner was very welcoming, clean and well-designed gust-house with great views of whales in the bay straight from your bedroom. Would definitely stay again.

Amazing place!
An amazing place with spectacular views. Pictures don't do justice to the view from your bedroom. The hosts were really sweet, helpful, accommodating and most of all really made us feel at home. The accommodation itself is 5 star. Perfect place to get away from your usual hustle and bustle.

Wale beobachten vom Balkon
Wir waren leider nur 1 Nacht dort. Das Haus ist top modern und liebevoll detailliert eingerichtet. Die Zimmer sind geräumig und sehr sauber mit super Ausblick auf die Bucht. Wir konnten vom Balkon aus Wale beobachten. Will und Stewart sind perfekte und charmante Gastgeber. Kann man nur weiterempfehlen!

Piccolo hotel con una vista mozzafiato. Pulitissimo. Stanze meravigliose. I proprietari sono persone cordialissime tra l'altro proprietari anche di un delizioso ristorante lì vicino dove si mangia benissimo "Serendipity " La mattina hanno preparato la colazione in terrazza con una cura ed eleganza senza eguali. Superconsigliatissimo !

Excellent lodge + outstanding spot to see whales!
We had a wonderful time at 65onCliff. Stewart and his team made our stay excellent. The room was perfect, we had an outstanding and diversified breakfast every morning, combined with the amazing whales in front of the lodge, which we could view from the cliffs directly in front of the lodge (and even from our balcony). We enjoyed our stay so much and nothing was missing. Thanks for all the recommendations w/r to restaurants and places to be in the area, which have been so helpful. It was such a great time and we can recommend 65onCliff 100% as we would book the lodge definitely again!
