Amazing stay
We had lovely stayed at Sunset Motel, easy check in and check out, The apartment we are staying is immaculate, big space, there was 4 bedroom apartment, and was only 2 of us, The kitchen, the living room, and the bathroom is clean and very nice. Big plus that they have sky sports channels. And step away from the beach, beautiful sunset view, everything is amazing, 5 min drive or less to the town.

On the very edge of Thames
Unit with sea view had everything needed. There is public parking between unit and sea so towards sunset lots of cars and RV arrived and some stayed overnight. It is a fair way into Thames so if you require anything you need to take your car.

Only had 1 night here as a stop over, we would have liked another day to relax a little and have a walk around. The river behind hotel was beautiful and so was the sunset
