Decided last minute to do an overnight stay in Blackpool (Thur / Fri). Wanted to sort out accomodation before travelling so I researched some recommended B & B's in Blackpool and the Park Villa was the 1st one that I called.
Initially I was quoted £ 100 for 1 night in a family room including breakfast. After explaining that it was 2 adults and 2 children, I was then informed that the rate would be £ 75. I offered to leave my card details to secure the booking but I was told that a verbal booking was fine since the card machine wasn't working.
The house is situated on a quiet road just off Central Drive, approx 20 mins walk from the Tower and around 30 -40 mins walk from the Pleasure Beach.
The room was situated at the top of the house and was clean and tidy though a little cramped but that's only to be expected with a family room. The bathroom was clean and adequate with shower, WC and wash basin. Room had TV, kettle, wardrobe with drawers and a small table. The only worry would have been how to escape from there in the event of a fire since the uPVC window stays were corroded and sticking.
The best thing about the place is the people who run it. Lynne is the landlady who greeted us and her son James is the full time owner. We were made very welcome from when we 1st arrived. I thought that the kids would only get cereal for breakfast but Lynne came over and offered to cook them both the same full English that the adults were enjoying.
All in all, a short but pleasant stay. We will probably go back again next year.
