Home from home

We spent 3 nights at Albert No 6. The room was comfortable (particularly the bed, great sleep!) It was very clean, and provisions were plenty. The hosts lent us beach towels and spades for Hot Water Beach, and gave us coffee and a cafetiere for our breakfast. Would thoroughly recommend. A really friendly team of staff. Great location too!

This is a quaint tidy and clean motel close to the beach shops and restaurants. The owners are lovely. Basic facilities you’d find anywhere but very comfortable and well kept.

More than a motel!

I booked this place as I was travelling on a budget and struck gold! I never expect much from motels but this exceeded all expectations. Really comfortable room, quiet at night and the staff were fantastic!
