    B+Bs/Camps at DiveSites

    Thought this might be worth a run.
    With so many of us who travel some distances to dive sites often a stopover is needed. So I thought we could post links to recommended B+Bs, Campsites Ect.

    Here's mine for the Farne Islands.

    Seahouses is a cracking place to stay especially on bank holidays, I've stayed here, Welcome - Horncliffe Guest House on two occassions and both times found it very welcoming and accomodating.

    Kirsty(Landlady) is more than willing to go above and beyond to pander to divers needing early starts. Its very clean and very reasonably priced at £30pppn.
    Directly across the road from The Links, for HUGE evening meals, and a five min stroll to The ship inn and harbour.


    If this runs well, we could maybe have a sticky so we can look for say Swanage, and have a few B+Bs to try from others experience and not blindly book into a dosshouse or a den of ill repute.

    TIA and thanks Gloc
    Craig..

    We stayed here at our last farnes trip: Springhill Farm Wigwams, Caravans and Cottages Seahouses Northumberland Great for large trips.

    We will be staying here: Jeremy Inglis Hostel Oban Home for our next trip up to Oban. I have it on good recommendation as a cheap, but very diver friendly B+B (the website is a bit crap though).

        Bet quite a few of us have already enjoyed a stay with Gary and Zoe in Eyemouth.. but for those who have yet to dive up that way.. Bed & Breakfast in The Scottish Borders (and yes before they took it over it really was a den of disrepute)
