Guests say
The Birch Standard caravan in Skegness offers a great location near the beach and is praised for its cleanliness and tidiness. Guests have had a great time, finding the property warm, cosy, and the staff friendly. However, some guests feel the caravans are dated, cramped, and in need of new mattresses and upgrades.
Reviews generally describe the caravan as clean and tidy, indicating good housekeeping standards.
The proximity to the beach is appreciated, but concerns about water pollution have been raised, slightly diminishing the location's appeal.
Guests have reported issues with comfort, such as the need for new mattresses and the cramped space, suggesting room for improvement.
Facilities are noted to be dated with maintenance issues like a sticking door and an unreliable shower temperature, indicating a need for upgrades.
There is no mention of gifts or additional thoughtful touches in the reviews, so this category cannot be scored.

The caravans are pretty tiny, a sleeps 6 caravan isn’t really suitable for 6 people unless you want to be on top of each other. The caravan is very dated and clearly has been used for many decades and isn’t in the best condition. The cooker takes 3 times as long at least to cook anything, even on the hob and the shower goes between freezing cold to scalding hot. It was so hot my children refused to stand in it, so I had to sponge wash them. You have to pay for WiFi, and the TV provided is tiny and that of what I had in my bedroom 20 years ago. The swimming has to be booked 48 hours in advance which you only find out the day you get there, so Monday Tuesday and most of Wednesday aren’t possible. The beach is very close and accessible, but the water is disgusting and highly polluted. The foam comes in brown and covers you. Staff were friendly but I didn’t really need them so can’t elaborate.
