Hotel 24 Seven is still one of the best and affordable ways to stay in Bristol if you are visiting for more than 1 night , their apartments are very close to town centre and water.
Have been using them for a number of years now and have been very pleased.

Check out pilotage notes and charts before venturing into these lovely inlets.
Very similar to Preston (LANCASHIRE) if you have ever tackled that One.

I recently used the services of Optimum Marine to carry out a survey of my vessel. Oli Byles carried out the survey and I found the service professional, informative and courteous. I would recommend this company. John Heale
