Lovely base to visit Blackpool tower
Ideal for our purpose , with good downstairs facilities for our less mobile member member of the party . Clean with everything needed . A bar in the shower downstairs would be a good addition to aid showering for less mobile. Very comfortable and warm ! Excellent stay !

Perfect for us
Location was perfect for our needs.
Kitchen was well supplied, which made a nice change to most properties.
Everything was clean, neat and comfortable.
Sound downstairs doesn't travel upstairs which is great if you have kids sleeping.
