Small room, no table for drinks tray and kettle only a mantelpiece from which kettle lead does not reach down to the plug socket so you have to boil the kettle on the floor. The room smells foisty and damp, and the walls and ceiling in the bathroom have numerous areas of furry black mould spores, as well as on the windows and frames. The extractor fan is blocked with clumps of fluff and shower head is dirty and has mould and hair on it. Even the tv remote is so old that all the button labels have worn off and the battery cover is missing, highlighting that this is more like being in a charitable hostel than a paying guest B&B because it is so poorly cleaned and maintained, of a very low quality and hygiene standard and thus hugely overpriced. During our stay the room was not cleaned nor towels replaced, evidenced by the peanuts and crumbs that were on the floor when we arrived and most probably still remain. If the rooms at the Lighthorseman were about £25 then they probably would be more realistic for someone on a really tight budget looking for a room only stay and prepared to accept somewhat unhygienic slightly cramped conditions as a trade off for the low price, but at £70 without breakfast or reasonable comfort as a B&B the Lighthorseman falls incredibly short to the point of actually being offensive and a rip off.
