Not a bad word to say about The Avenue or Gordon and Chris. They were very welcoming and full of information about the town. When we arrived the kettle was put on straight away and Chris and Gordon joined us for breakfast each morning. Close to the beach, trams and town centre so perfect for our short break.

Chris and Gordon's reputation is well deserved. Sounds like a cliche, but nothing was too much trouble for them, from their welcome right through to our departure. Everything spotlessly... More
