Guests appreciate the cottage's prime location in Skegness, close to the train station, supermarkets, and beach. The property is praised for its beautiful, comfortable setting and secure garden, especially for those with pets or children. Some guests have highlighted issues with cleanliness and maintenance, suggesting improvements could enhance the experience.
Cleanliness has been a concern for some guests, with reports of slug trails, a smoky smell, and dog odours on furniture. The garden's upkeep was also mentioned as needing attention.
The location is highly regarded due to its convenience to the train station, supermarkets, the beach, and local attractions, making it an ideal spot for visitors.
The property is generally considered comfortable, with a particularly appreciated en suite downstairs bedroom. However, some guests reported issues with low beds and uncomfortable mattresses.
Facilities like the kitchen are well-received, but there have been complaints about broken beds, a non-functional shower and dishwasher, and insufficient seating for larger groups.
While the property has been noted for its thoughtful touches, there is no specific mention of gifts, and therefore, it cannot be guaranteed that such gestures are a standard practice.

Not far from the beach and other local attractions. We enjoyed our stay and found the property generally very comfortable. The only downside was the beds upstairs - we'd recommend replacing or repairing them to further enhance the comfort of the property. We'd definitely stay again! Thank you for an enjoyable holiday!
