Lovely place to stay in Blackpool
Pros:

I was so well looked after, I was out too early one morning for breakfast so they made me a packed lunch! Breakfast on the other mornings was excellent.

Perfect in every way
Pros:

Linda and Tony were absolutely fantastic hosts. From checking in to checking out, they chatted with us and made sure we were comfortable and had everything we needed.

The room was lovely, the bed was comfortable and the bathroom looked relatively new. Everything was spotless and they had a very handy information booklet with everything you could possibly need to know.

Breakfast was amazing. We ordered the hot food when we checked in, and it was truly delicious.

Parking was free and easy. Location was perfect for the pleasure beach, and it was easy to walk/get the tram to anywhere else.

We absolutely will stay here any time we’re in Blackpool.

Tony and Linda welcome me as I arrived with a beautiful smile and I said I hadn't been to Blackpool for 10 years so Tony gave me a lot of update information about Blackpool. So for anyone reading this review should book here as its also in a very quiet location πŸ‘ŒπŸ’―
