Guests say
The Cottage in Skegness is a well-received holiday rental, praised for its cleanliness, traditional charm, and well-equipped kitchen. Guests appreciate the enclosed garden, the property's proximity to local amenities, and the thoughtful touches like a welcome pack. While some find the second double room snug and the mattresses in need of an update, the overall sentiment is positive, with many guests enjoying their stay and planning to return.
The majority of guests found The Cottage to be very clean and comfortable, with only a few isolated comments about cobwebs and a musty vacuum cleaner. The positive remarks about cleanliness far outweigh the negatives, indicating a high standard of cleanliness overall.
The location is highly praised for its convenience to local shops, pubs, and beautiful beaches, as well as being within easy reach of the sea and Wolds. The presence of a bus stop outside is frequently mentioned as a handy feature, despite the top deck overlooking a bedroom.
Guests find the beds comfortable and the cottage cosy, although there are several comments about the second double bed being uncomfortable and the mattresses needing replacement. The comfort of the seating is also mentioned, with some finding it low. Overall, comfort is satisfactory but with room for improvement.
Facilities are generally well-regarded, with a well-equipped kitchen and ample garden seating. However, some guests note the lack of direct garden access, the outside toilet, and the need for an additional shower. The drying room and ample parking are appreciated, suggesting good but not perfect facilities.
Guests frequently mention the thoughtful welcome pack, which includes items like Prosecco, milk, and tea, although it's important to note that such gifts are a kind gesture and may not be guaranteed for every stay. The provision of games, DVDs, and outdoor equipment also reflects considerate hosting.

Com, as on arrival was unfit for habitat. The owner was amazing and accepted our booking for our family and saved our xmas. The cottage is in gorgeous grounds, clean, warm and has everything you need for your stay. As a family we had a fabulously relaxed time here and xmas dinner was served on a lovely big table. The owners were extremely kind and even brought us 2 extra chairs. The garden was perfect for my 3 year old grandson who loves a little game of football. I would highly recommend this cottage to anyone visiting the Skegness area, you can even leave your car here and catch the bus outside to go into Skegness town centre attractions and return to the peaceful backdrop of this lovely cottage. Thankyou again for your kindness and a wonderfull family xmas in your gorgeous cottage.

Comfortable, cosy and very clean. We found the beds a little short for tall people, hence the 4 stars but overall everything good. Thanks for the welcome pack.
