Great location and fairly priced
Pros:

Great location to walk to the beach and shops. Double bed and bunk bed for family of 3, cash only bar downstairs. Tea coffee facilities in the room. Breakfast served in the basement and just enough for us, there are extras that you can pay for.
Large paid carpark at the end of the road only 2 minutes walk.

Cons:

Only thing I could think of is a toilet roll holder near the sink as there wasn't one. After a long journey sat and realised they were above my head in a basket.

Pros:

Very good stay at the Trafford. Seems a very well run B&B. My room was very clean and tidy, the bed was good. The room was a bit on the tight side but fine for what l needed. Will definitely stay again.
