The cottage location is brilliant, a stones throw to the village and beach, then a sort walk to the stunning observatory! The cottage was very clean and well equipped with everything you need for a comfortable stay! The stairs are a little steep, no problem for us but maybe for less mobile guests. We enjoyed our stay thank you 😊

Lovely cottage, close to all amenities but nicely tucked out of the way of the madness. close to the beach. The cottage was cosy with lots of character. We especially loved the decor and all the small details and little extras, the host really thought of everything to accommodate guests and their pets too! My only criticisms would be the cleanliness, although overall it was tidy, we did find old food under the coffee table and food wrappers laying around. It could do with a good deep clean. There was a few spiders the we had to takle and many dead flies on the kitchen windowsil that we cleaned away but it wasn't anything major. The drain in the garden is blocked so when you empty the sink it overflows. Also the front garden is a walk through to the other joining houses which didnt cause us any problems. The back garden is large, gated and private. Overall we had a great stay and would definitely stay again. Thanks for having us.

Had a great week at coastguard cottage , very close to the beach and shops. Lovely walks and great location for visiting Lincolnshire. Cottage was nice with everything you needed bunk bedroom was very small I would say a tight fit but two boys slept ok. Main bedroom was excellent. Small double bedroom was ok. We had a good holiday and would visit again. Try the Trafalger inn for an excellent meal for a good price. The cafe on the beach is good too. 😃
