What a wonderful Bed and Breakfast. Since there is a wonderful resturant in this B and B you get the best B and B breakfast ever. There are lots of choices right off their breakfast menu. I can't wait to go stay and eat at the Mad Batter again. read more

Nice, quality b&b. Excellent location (one block to beach and shopping/resturants); has a popular outdoor restaurant with great breakfasts; and a friendly/courteous staff that lets you keep a low profile if that's what you prefer.
