When arriving at the hotel we were quite impressed. Location great, parking good and Barry very socialable. Wife Lesley very different, rude, miserable and uncompromising. This was a shame as we found the hotel to be clean and in a good position. We would only stay again if Lesley was nolonger the landlady. To be given false information over the... more

Hotel was clean, but there was no heating and towels were not changed. As it rained every day we were in Blackpool we had nowhere to dry our wet clothes. The owners were friendly, but Barry talked constantly. Breakfast wasnt good and you had to make your own tea and toast. Average hotel. more

Our party staying at the fame included 3 couples with 2 kids each. On arrival we met Barry and Lesley. The first thing Lesley had to say to us was to demand £240. It would have been nice to have been welcomed to the hotel first before demanding money. Barry did make a little more effort. That was not Lesley's... more

We unfortunately booked 3 rooms here for 6 adults and 2 small children with the intention of having a relaxing weekend and to show the children the illunminations. From the moment we arrived you could cut the atmosphere with a knife, the hoteliers(Barry) and his wife(Lesley) made it clear to us they have no hospitality skills whatsoever with their miserable... more

OK we have had some bad comments made about our hotel and our attitude, let us get something straight , we have spent over £190,000 on refurbishment , [our own money ] and have seen a comment about 3/4 beds , there are none , as under visitbritain guidelines , [of which we are members ] these are not allowed...

Me and my boyfriend arrived late Friday afternoon. Straight away I could tell we had made a mistake by booking, there was no welcome by owner Barry or his wife, just a cold unfriendly attitude. My first thought was it doesnt really matter, we wont be spending time in the actual hotel, just in the room and out and about.... more
