We had such a lovely stay at the hotel, the facilities were lovely and clean and the hosts were extremely welcoming. It was my first time staying over in Skegness and I can safely say that if I were to come again I would stay here without hesitation. The room had everything I needed, lovely and clean and such a quiet area which was an added bonus, also within a 10 minute walk of pretty much everything you'd need which makes this location is perfect. Thank you so much for everything

The mattress was very hard and we did not sleep very well. They need to spend more money on better mattressses than on fancy cushions. At the end of the day it is a bed and breakfast and having a good sleep is very important
