The Strathmore
"Our second stay at this wonderful Bed & Breakfast. Location is perfect, parking behind the accommodation is reasonably priced and there is always a warm welcome when we have arrived. The breakfast delivered to the bedroom every morning is the icing on the cake. Highly recommend and cannot wait to return"
YHA Manorbier - Hostel
"I had a lovely stay at YHA Manorbier. Easy check in, very friendly people, good amenities and a great base for some nice walks. I really liked the choice of different seating areas and the onsite cafe, and 24 hour parking for ยฃ5 meant not having to rush off after check out. It only took around 45 minutes to walk to Manobier beach on the coastal path, which was a nice way to start a Sunday. Will definitely stay again if Iโm in the area :)"
