The location is highly praised for being close to the beach and town, with easy access to local amenities. The convenience of the location is a consistent positive across reviews.
Guests generally found the cottage comfortable, with special mentions of comfy beds and a cosy atmosphere. There were some concerns about the size for larger groups and minor discomforts, leading to a slightly reduced score.
Facilities like the hot tub are well-received, but some reviews point out maintenance issues with decking and seating, as well as a need for a smart TV. Overall, facilities are good but could benefit from attention to detail.
The host's thoughtfulness is frequently mentioned, with welcome gifts such as wine and treats. While these gestures are highly appreciated, it's important to note that such extras, though delightful, are not guaranteed for every stay.

We arrived as planned and checked in a hour early.Ian met us on our arrival,a lovely man and nothing was to much trouble for him.We were left some welcome treats including wine,beer,milk,bread and biscuits.The location is perfect less than 5 minutes from the beach.15 minutes steady walk to Skegness and approx 20 mins to Butlins.There are plenty of shops nearby including Aldi and Iceland.The hot tub was amazing,we used it everyday.The heating was very good and immediate.We were very comfy and cosy.We slept with the window open slightly and although we could hear the traffic it wasn't a problem.We will definitely rebook for next year.We had a lovely time.
