⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Superb B&B
Pros:

Cath & Marc were wonderful, warm and caring people, inclusive breakfast really was a treat, and they were very considerate with everything. They only took it over 3 1/2 months before we visited, but they're working really hard to make it one of the best places to stay in Blackpool.

Cons:

They were so accomodating, there's nothing I could really say
