Seaside B&Bs
You're in luck if you're looking for the best bed and breakfasts (B&Bs) on the UK coast because we love the sea in the UK – nowhere in the country is more than 75 miles from the coast, and the UK and its islands have a coastline that's around 20,000 miles long. So that's a lot of seaside and a lot of places for perfectly sited seaside bed and breakfasts, from Cornwall to the Scottish islands, and Blackpool to Scarborough. Check out our guide to the best coastal and seaside B&Bs in the UK, whatever kind of experience you're looking for – in a vibrant resort, close to a quiet beach, on a windswept coastal path, or overlooking a serene bay. Not only that, B&Bs by the sea are usually cheaper than staying in a hotel, and more comfortable than a hostel, and we guarantee you a great breakfast, some sea air, a sandy stroll and a sea view – you can't say fairer than that.
