"Beach-side inn, relax in stylish rooms and enjoy great local seafood."
Overview
Dating back to 1867, this charming seaside inn is situated almost on the beach at Start Bay. The stylish and well-appointed bedrooms are well equipped and have impressive en suite, walk-in shower rooms. Comfort is guaranteed with snugly beds, robes and all that's required to ensure a relaxed and rewarding stay. A number of rooms have the added bonus of fantastic views of the bay. The daily-changing fish menu includes locally-caught crabs, lobster and perhaps hand-dived scallops.

What a location! - Stunning views, Beesands is something special.
Views of the sea - Worth trying to get one of the sea view rooms, they don't disappoint.
Fruits of the sea - Great food here with plenty of fresh local seafood.
Convivial atmosphere - Great buzz, a proper inn.
Shingle beach - Beach is stunning, but shingle, so no sandcastle building here!
