We had the large first floor front room with fantastic views of the promenade and the the sea. It's always busy with ships, so always something to look at. On our last visit building work was going on at the back and this is now a very tasteful patio, garden and summer house. Food and room excellent as always.

  Somerton guest house in Lowestoft is absolutely amazing! I have stayed at numerous 5* hotels but none can compete with Ursula’s service! We felt so welcome and taken care of,... read more breakfast is delicious and large, and the rooms are super cute and quaint. I stayed in a single room with a view to the sea, I was knackered most nights after a day of riding (we were there on a equestrian holiday!) and the bed was super comfy. Everything was very close and as an extra bonus you will meet the puppy Brambles who wanted hugs and kisses from everyone! It is very clean and all precautions had been taken by Ursula in regards to Covid, we felt totally safe on our staycation! Ursula thank you so much g FY or looking after us, you are a true STAR!

We we received a... read more very warm welcome on check in and there had obviously been a lot of time and thought put into ensuring the safety of all guests. Our double room was comfortable and spotless, although the bathroom was a bit small. They had excellent garden facilities although we did not use them. There was a choice of two breakfast sittings at socially distanced tables. Breakfast had to be pre-chosen from a good menu and was freshly cooked and served at your table. The food was excellent and there was plenty of it. The guest house was in an excellent location for all the local amenities.
We felt we could not have made a better choice for our break and would thoroughly recommend it to anyone considering a holiday in Lowestoft.

  Great gyest house, makes the most of its amazing position overlooking the sea. Room was immaculately clean, great following of covid restrictions, made you feel safe.... read more The view from our room over the prom and sea was made even better by two lovely comfy chairs to sit on. The breakfast was hearty with plenty of choice and great local ingredients. Lovely garden area to sit in for the evening sun. Ursula and her staff did every thing possible to make our stay good, without going over the top. Possibly one of the nicest guest houses we have stayed in. Will certainly stay again.
