I eventually found a double room which I thought was good ( my first one was cold) only to find that there was a humming sound that kept me awake coming from the two ventilators/generators on the roof outside my window BUT Lauren from reception was fantastic and is an asset to Cooden Beach Hotel, well done Lauren and the other members of staff👍The Spa massage was great but I thought a little pricey, having said the above I would still recommend Cooden Beach
