About this property

Positioned just a stone’s throw away from the beach in the charming seaside town of Mablethorpe is The Beach House. This delightful holiday home benefits from a welcoming interior completed by four beautifully-appointed bedrooms, an enclosed garden with indulgent hot tub, and off-road parking which is a rarity in this coastal town. It also boasts a fabulous location paces away from the breath-taking coast and is within reach of the Lincolnshire Wolds Area of Outstanding Beauty; perfect for families or friends looking to explore the coast with two beloved canine companions. Cross the threshold to begin your holiday, find a welcoming sitting room with a crackle electric flame-effect stove at its heart; unwind on the plush seating in front of its warmth, the perfect spot after a day full of exploration. Later, venture into the fully-equipped kitchen/diner to rustle up delicious meals before heading outside to dine alfresco on the spacious patio, the perfect place to watch as the stars fill the sky above. Enjoy a late night soak in the hot tub, a welcomed luxury after a long day of exploring your surroundings on foot, and where you can round off your day in style. When the evening draws to a close, head back inside to wash off the day’s adventures in either the ground-floor shower room or the bathroom on the first floor. Be sure to catch up on some rest before embarking on your next adventure; choose between a ground-floor king-size, a king-size or double on the first floor and a second-floor twin. If you can tear yourself away from this idyllic dwelling, venture into the local town where you can stock up on the essentials at the local stores, before refuelling with some tasty grub at The Beck or Cedars Bar and Restaurant. Take a leisurely stroll down to the golden shores of Mablethorpe Beach, the perfect place to enjoy sunny days, splashing around in the sea or simply admiring the breath-taking views. The lovely Queen’s Park resides only a short distance away and features a miniature railway and boating lake, ideal for a family picnic. Alternatively, follow the coast to reach The Sea Sanctuary Wildlife Centre or the North Sea Observatory, in addition to Donna Nook where you can amble around the nature reserve; if you’re lucky you might even spot the seals that reside here! Oham Lakes is also nearby, offering further picturesque vistas with three wonderful fishing pools to fish from, a haven for avid anglers; a tackle shop and cafe are also on-site. History is also woven throughout the surrounding countryside, head to the ruins of Bolingbroke Castle and the National Trust site of Gunby Hall or venture into the historic and thriving city of Lincoln to tour its cathedral and the Museum of Lincolnshire Life. With the Lincolnshire Wolds AONB also within accessible distance, boasting a variety of walking, hiking and cycling trails for all ages and abilities, you’ll rarely be short of outdoor opportunities. Whisk your loved ones away to the coast at The Beach House.

Lincolnshire is home to the quaint coastal village of Mablethorpe. You can take in the sea air while strolling along the town's sandy beach and dune system. There are a few chain stores and a wide variety of locally owned boutiques, cafes, and restaurants in Mablethorpe. In town, you can visit the Mablethorpe Seal Sanctuary and hang out with seals and other tame creatures. Skegness, an old-school coastal resort just a few miles down the coast, is home to many kid- and family-friendly activities. Instead, you could travel inland to the town of Louth, which is home to Georgian streets lined with Grade II listed buildings, St. James Church, a theatre, an art deco cinema, a museum, a golf course, a modern leisure centre complex, excellent shopping (including market days every week), and a wide variety of eateries to suit any palate. An ideal location from which to explore the scenic countryside and coastline of Lincolnshire.

    Positives, a great welcome pack and good selection of games, the hot tub is massive which is great. Good to have off-road parking and location right in the town centre is excellent. I agree with others that the pictures do make it look bigger than it is. Staying with a baby, we couldn’t get the pram in the front door as the corridor and baby gate made is so narrow. I used the washer - an essential staying with a baby - but then found the dryer wouldn’t work as the water tub was full but it was impossible to empty without taking the kitchen apart to get to it. The mattress in the first floor double room sinks in the middle and wasn’t comfortable. The bathroom on the first floor has been grouted not silicon sealed between the tiles and bath meaning it’s got gaps and the grout looking a bit dirty - you notice these things when bathing a baby! Staying with a parent who has mobility and sight issues, the floors are uneven throughout the property and the downstairs shower room is very small. Part of the reason of booking this property was it had a ground floor bathroom and bedroom. One of the jets in the hot tub doesn’t work as the grey dial that switches it on/off is stuck/broken in the off position. This is an honest review of what we found and feedback to the owners and we did have a good stay.
