None of our rooms have single beds. Regretfully we cannot accommodate children under the age 18 and as the path to the house is steep, wheelchair access is very difficult.
There is a selection of DVDS and books for your use which can be found in the breakfast room.

A Brief History
Victoria House (latterly Mount) was built in 1847 as a private dwelling. In 1857, it became a school taking in boarders and day pupils. In 1885 it became part of the Temperance Hotel which later became Rayners Hotel. It was sold for £600 in 1919 and Rayners Hotel sold for £1205.
Victoria House then became a private dwelling again. In April 1944 a bomb fell on the land between Albert Street and Victoria Street damaging several buildings including Victoria Mount. The former Rayners Hotel was demolished.
Victoria Mount became a guesthouse in the 1970's until the turn of the 21st Century when it became a private residence again.
June 2009 sees Victoria Mount once again becoming a guest house.
