The Tides Oceanview Inn and Cottages

The Tides Oceanview Inn and Cottages

10/10 Excellent
"The Inn was clean and comfy. It wasn't fancy or full of amenities but it makes up with a clean place to come to and a comfy bed to sleep on Next door is the Seaside Inn which has a beach access for the public to use. We went during low tides and was surprised by many caves and tide pools to explore. The beach was beautiful and filled with life. Must see especially at sunrise."
