Our arrival was not a good start as the owner/manager was sound asleep on the sofa and we had to find our room ourselves. Our garden room was at the back with no view and no WiFi. There was no swimming pool as advertised, just a murky round ‘pond’. However the views from the front are lovely and breakfast was very good.

We stayed at Whales Way twice on our trip - once in December and then on our way home. What a lovely place to stop over at. Benji and Annie (and Benji's father) go out of their way to make the stay very pleasant. The first room was the garden room at the back - nice garden view the road noise from the N2 was not too bad. The TV is not worth watching and wifi was a little weak at times. The stay in the loft room made up for the garden room stay. What an amazing view over the sea. Breakfast was amazing. Benji and his father together made it happen and it was delicious. All in all, a great overnight B&B or even if you are staying in Wilderness for a few days. Recommended.

The amazing sea view was just the beginning.... we thoroughly enjoyed every encounter with the friendly hosts, loved the attention to detail in the room, benefitted from the helpful recommendations about the amazing surroundings, savoured the comfortable night's rest, and were delighted by such a luxurious and personalised breakfast prepared by the brilliant father-son-duo. You guys are great, thank you! We will be back for longer next time.
