Stayed for two nights. Lovely clean room (Room 4) which has a balcony. Free WiFi. Top tasty continental breakfast both mornings. Only problem for me was the traffic noise outside as I like to keep windows open.

My husband and I booked in for the night while visiting fiends locally. We had a large comfortable very clean room, with all the facilities needed. (free wi-fi, also a bonus). A great location, parking and a warm welcome on arrival, Marilyn also took the time to give me directions to our friends house. Breakfast didn't disappoint, with a variety... More

I have just returned from my third stay at beaches which in itself says what I think of it. The staff are fantastic, always very welcoming. The beds and bedding are sooo comfortable....top quality bedlinen which I really appreciate and something which many other guesthouses don't provide. Breakfast is continental style but so much choice I didn't miss a full... More

Stayed at Beeches for a weekend to spend some time with friends, Check in was easy and I was greeted very warmly by the owners who showed me to my room. The room was very clean and spacious, felt homely too. Egyptian cotton sheets (which i love) gave it that luxury touch. The following mornings breakfast was amazing, didn't realise... More

I stayed at Beaches as I had an early start to the airport the following morning. I found it friendly, clean and extremely comfortable, with great attention paid to little details. I will most definitely stay there again, and it takes only about 15 minutes to drive to the airport.... perfect to arrive feeling relaxed and hassle free.

I live in North Wales and have been staying at Beaches on and off for more than 10 years so this review is well overdue! The fact I have stayed here so often during this time probably speaks for itself... this is a fantastic B&B - there is a lot of competition in the area but Beaches is by far... More

Stayed here with Friends as we were going to a show at the Cliffs and our usual B&B was fully booked. Pleasant room with sea view, We were suprised at how quiet it was as it is on a main road. Breakfast was served 8.30 to 9.30 and was a 'luxury' continental offering with a nice range of different bread,... More

Just spent a nice weekend away in Southend. Beaches is a very clean modern guest house and I would definitey recommend it. It is located on the seafront and the view from our bedroom was lovely - especially this morning when the sun was shining and the tide was in. Only fault with this guest house is that we woud...

We didn't receive a very warm welcome and was told on arrival that he wanted cash because of credit card fees! We only stayed here because our usual hotel was full. We had the last available room which was a small double at the back (room 7) overlooking a grubby moss covered roof. Very small and cramped but still £70.00... More

Rooms are half the size of the ones pictured on the website, very claustrophobic. Bathroom is minute. There is no car park, you have to use a local council one and drag your luggage up the street.We got a very poor welcome as we were delayed by traffic and one of our rooms (The large one) had been given to...
