United KingdomFantastic stay at The Sherwood! The B&B’s location was great, quiet, near a park. Perfect for a good nights sleep but also just off the main promenade so in walking distance of the main Skegness attractions. The room & bathroom were very clean. Great facilities, comfy bed. Linda & Rob were perfect hosts. They really gave 100% service. Excellent welcome and their warm hospitality continued throughout our 3 night stay as they spent time chatting with us & offering suggestions of places to visit. Breakfast was amazing! Quality ingredients, well presented and hot. Cooked to perfection as requested. Would definitely recommend The Sherwood as a place to stay on a visit to Skegness & would have no hesitations in returning in the future.
