Stayed as a party of 3...2 adults and 1 dog. We were made to feel very welcome....the dog got greeted before we did !!! And she got given biscuits !!! We only stayed for one night but found the hotel to be very peaceful and homely. The staff were very friendly and not too busy for a chat. The room was lovely...very light with great views. Fantastic shower with immediate hot water. Comfy beds too :) The breakfast was lovely..not too much, not too little.One of us had the veggie option which was very substantial. Nothing was too much trouble for the lovely Jean!! The dog wasn't allowed in the dining room but was allowed to be left in our room which is unusual...having chatted with Jean realised there were other options if I was worried about leaving the dog on her own ( chewing furniture, barking etc) Just ask and a solution can be found. There was info about dog friendly pubs and restaurants nearby...we found 2 pubs within 2 mins walking distance that served decent food and the dog was welcome. Definately would return to the Chelsea :)

arrived just after lunch jean the hotelier was very welcoming, gave us a front door key so we cud come and go as we pleased, we had room 2 with the four poster bed very clean and comfortable. parking was ok there was no parking spaces when we arrived, we unloaded luggage then parked a little further up the road, after that we had no problems as we were out all day and u can park on both sides off the road after 5pm till 10am.breakfast was plentyfull, ceareal,a good cooked breakfast with as much toast as u wanted, on the morning of our departure we were setting off early to go to snowden, jean let us go into the dining room earlier we had cereal and toast and jean made us up bacon sandwiches which were very tasty and welcome on top of snowden.thank you jean ,will recommend .

The hotel was a disaster and nearly ruined our holiday, we were attracted to the hotel because it apparently welcomed pets and we had two small dogs, In fact in our opinion pets were not welcome at all and we eventually walked out. We have stayed in B&B's and hotels with our pets for many years without any problems at all. In fact the Chelsea is not a hotel but a B&B, it does not have Hotel facilities, bar, evening meal, residents lounge etc..and the landlady really should make it clear that pets are not welcome.

Hi, despite our child being ill and having to move things around, the Chelsea were fantastic in accomodating us. We knew the room wasnt the best they had but it had the most comfortable bed we had slept in a hotel for a very long time. The breakfast was fantastic, a good way to start the day. Couldnt have asked for a friendlier place to stay in a great location....
