Lord Kitcheners Guest House

We loved the sea view and proximity to town. The advert said private bathroom, so we were pleased to find it was ensuite. Tea, coffee, bottled water and hot chocolate provision was really good and replenished daily. I was pleased to find a hairdryer in the room. The continental breakfast we opted for had cereal, yoghurt, muffins, fruit and toast, which was good. The WiFi worked in the room, after scanning the QR code on the router. The staff were really helpful and attentive to our needs. They were really friendly too.

It's not for everyone.. It's basically like walking into a large home and being told to relax and take a seat on the couch. But the staff are lovely, it is not expensive, it is clean. The rooms are massive. The honesty bar really adds to the feeling you are at home. There are multiple sitting rooms and a snooker table. And it is rarely full, meaning it almost feels like you rented an entire house.

Liked everything. The hosts and staff were great. Breakfast first class. Guest house was clean and tidy throughout.the bedroom was spot on, cannot fault beds or room. Kettle, tea coffee and hot chocolate in room.We were in room 4, great sea view. Hosts made us feel at home straight away. Cannot do enough for you. All the memorabilia in the guest house was great to see. Claremont pier across the road with 2 bars arcade fish and chip shop. Ice cream stalls. Just 15 minute walk and you are at the harbour and town centre shops.we will definitely go back to kitcheners. First class.

The guest house has a sea view and it is a short descent to the beach. The breakfasts were good, although you had to know the night before what you wanted. However, there was a good variety and plenty. Strangely, there is nothing in the description to mention that it is primarily a holiday home for former members of the armed forces. The first day, we were chatting with a couple of Chelsea Pensioners! The room was well-stocked with tea-making facilities. There were enough restaurants around, some of which offered discount to Kitchener guests.

Lovely property, looks amazing from the outside. Feels homely when you walk inside, very clean and tidy. Absolutely love the character of the building. Room was very clean and tidy, modern with everything needed even a little mini fridge great for cold water. Could do with a fan in the bedroom, was a very warm weekend we stayed and sun shines in the bedroom all day. Talking about that we had stunning panoramic views from the bedroom, stunning views at 6am. Breakfast was very good. Honesty bar perfect, we enjoyed playing pool in the evening having a little drink and played a bit of light music. It was like we were the only people there. We don’t have a military connection as such but fully appreciated the lengths gone to by this family to honour all things military and all the things they do for their charity to support veterans and serving military. We can’t wait to come and stay here again, will be a firm favourite for us until we finally get the move to Lowestoft that we are wanting.
