The Beach Motel

Very good location. Easy to get to/from. Very short walk to the shops and restaurants in the bay. The hotel looks tired but it is very good and comfortable. Food was excellent.

Really spacious room, good location and cheap. However it was very noisy at night with drinkers from the bar standing outside which is right in front of the bedrooms. Even though the outside seating area has a sign saying it closed at 10pm there were still people shouting and chatting outside after that time. The room was very hot but I did not feel safe having the window open. The window was huge - large enough for someone to easily climb in or reach through to the door lock, and was low enough for someone to climb in. It opened directly on to the external walkway so it was easily accessible for anyone to get to. As a solo female traveller I did not feel safe having the window open at night. I have no idea how the room was so incredibly stiflingly hot as it was not a hot day and the radiator was off the whole time. The mattress was clearly old as it sagged a lot in the middle and the pillows were old and yellowed.

The first time we have stayed at the Beach Motel and we will definitely be going back. The staff were efficient and very friendly. The rooms are a good size and very clean. We ate at the restaurant in the evening and the food plentiful and well cooked, makes a nice change to have an alternative to chips with every meal. We only had bacon sandwiches for breakfast but again they were very good.

Great stuff, lovely location but meh accessibility The room was good, close to the town and beach. The staff were lovely and the breakfast was very yummy. Overall fantastic. However, when booking it said that there was wheelchair accessibility which isn’t true if you went there was an individual Wheelchair user. The wheelchair access door to reception wasn’t obvious and at any rate was locked. The majority of the car park can’t be used by a wheelchair and when we arrived at Knight it was impossible to see that there is a little bit of Matt car park close to the entrance however it isn’t marked as a wheelchair space so when they’re busy, those spaces are already taken so I could only get to reception because I’m ambulatory but most of Wheelchair users wouldn’t have been able to get to reception or park, so although in the wheelchair accessible a little bit more signage and thinking about the journey of the independent wheelchair if needed to make it actually Wheelchair accessible

Fab staff. Guy on reception was fantastic! Polite, joyfully given a warm welcome!

Clean, food was good, staff were very friendly
