Great value for money and pleasant stay
Pros:

Central location with car parking straight across the road. Hosts were very accommodating. Breakfast was the highlight of our stay. Relaxed lounge that was accessible each evening.

Cons:

Bunk beds were a bit loose and room was roasting. Fans were provided but made no difference.

Pros:

Good location and value for money. Breakfast choices were good but eggs needed cooked more as served raw. Bedding was clean and fresh towels provided.

Cons:

No parking available. No hot water in room. Very dated decor and in need of carpets updated. Half of the blinds were missing and unable to close.

Would recommend to anyone, 5* service all round
Pros:

One of the nicest B&B I’ve ever seen in all the times I’ve stayed in Blackpool. The breakfast is 10/10, the whole place is clean and comfortable. As for the owners, they are lovely people, Catherine was very attentive to her guest and made us feel very welcome each morning and making sure we had everything we needed. I wouldn’t hesitate to book here again if going back to Blackpool!

Cons:

Everything was spot on!
