The location is lovely it’s so pretty short walk to pubsThe property itself is a little tired and could do with a spruce up redecorate The sofas in the living room smell really bad we presumed people had allowed dogs on the furniture we could smell it as soon as we entered the room. Luckily I had some really large blankets in the car so we covered the sofas before sitting on them.Hot tub is great fabulous garden The wiAn who met us with keys and showed us round was great good local knowledge and very friendly

We absolutely loved the cottage as a family. So much better for us than our normal caravan holiday.A home from home experience in a stunning location which was perfect for getting into Skegness when required and also perfect for when we wanted the downtime.Will be coming here again!
