The Headlands Inn has an ideal location; close to downtown, the coastal beach area, and fine dining. John welcomed us and helped answer several questions during our stay. The two breakfasts were outstanding, and the cookies put out in the afternoon were delicious. The room was quiet and comfortable. We were quite pleased with our choice of bed and breakfast.

My husband and I really enjoyed our stay here. The room was spotless, the bed very comfortable and it was incredibly quiet all night until daylight (which in early November is late!). The host was very friendly and showed us a couple of the other rooms, they are all equally lovely. The location is a close walk to everything in town. If you open the window you can even hear the surf crashing in the distance.

Pleasant, efficient owner and staff. Location right in center of town. Well appointed rooms. Our room was not in main building of inn, but a half block away in a separate building. It was still a charming room with a semiprivate deck that made the room more expansive than its actual size. Happy we stayed there.

Personable staff took care of our needs. Charming decor and special bench sitting at windows which open to fresh air and beautiful views. Love the old antiques and old decor and linens. Serve an out-of-ordinary breakfast which staff brings to your room. Parlor treats in the afternoon are pleasing touch.

Fabulous gem

Amazing! Just perfect for my birthday- the room was the essence of a B&B, Victorian ambiance perfectly decorated with tapestry style bedspread and the working fireplace, the breakfast measures up to any top restaurant, location is great in the heart of town but still sees the sea. Even the afternoon cookies & tea were superb. Accolades to John and Ashley

Weekday Get Away

Our stay was enjoyable in the Strauss room with a comfy king size bed, wonderful breakfast, private bathroom and an ocean view. We did not see any champagne but the cookies and tea after 4pm were appreciated. The unfortunate part about our visit was that most of the stores and restaurants were closed on Monday due to not enough employees to help run their businesses.
