We really enjoyed our stay at Costal Waters. We had a superior double room with a partial sea view. We heard no noise at all from the other rooms which is quite rare in B&B hotels. Very good spot for the harbour. The only issue for hotels along this stretch of road is that they are on a hill leading out of town so cars and lorries have to accelerate to climb the road which can be a bit noisy in the night - along with the gulls at the harbour! Request a back room if you are a light sleeper.

Very friendly welcome, nothing too much trouble. Very comfortable and immaculate room, excellent walk-in shower. Full English breakfast the best!. Well located for seafront and town centre. Access to reception is via steps so perhaps not ideal for those with walking difficulties Otherwise highly recommended!

Would stay again

It seems Hotel.com doesn’t pass on messages from their website to the actual hotel. We had written about dietary needs due to allergies and the manager said Hotel.com hadn’t informed him. Since there were other requests that weren’t passed along, the manager at hotel was kind enough to make it up to us. His thoughtfulness made the trip exceptional. Very clean. Good location. Bus stop, food shopping and restaurants are nearby. Walkable to beach, train station and other tourist attractions. Since husband likes to sleep in, we didn’t have the breakfast. Would definitely stay here again. My only recommendation is more toilet paper.
