I.ve been to the Craigdide a few times and I always received a warm welcome which is what me and my partner like.kat and Adam who run the Craigside are lovely people and they go above and beyond to make our stay relaxing..the craigside is clean and tidy..if you need fresh towels or toiletries you only need to ask for them..the breakfast is beautiful..they have a wide range of cereal and you can choose from pots of porridge or fresh fruit or yoghurt..and it's great value for money too weather your going as a couple or a family with plenty of parking at the rear but limited parking on the street.great hotel and kat and Adam are a lovely couple.me and Tracey go every year.we love it there..

No complaints

The room had everything I needed. The breakfast was great and Cat and Adam were very happy to make adaptations to suit each guest. Cat is the most wonderful hostess. Staying on my own I was a little worried about whether I would feel comfortable and safe. Cat was so friendly and helpful she put me at ease right away. I wonderful family run B&B. I will definitely use again.

The shower was a little small but the water was hot and the shower was powerful so it more than did the job. This is certainly not a complaint as it did the job.

Kat was an absolutely brilliant host. Attentive. Chatty and nothing seemed like it was too much trouble. Even when we were running slightly late for our expected check in time. Location for price was spot on and would and probably will return next summer. Food was all fresh and the rooms were well decorated, ventilated and the hotel is spacious. The whole hotel also smells fresh and the area is quiet at night despite being at peak summer holiday season (visited on an August weekend)

Only one very minor point which wasn’t significant enough to mark the hotel down. I think a small shelf below the mirror in the bathroom would be beneficial.

The location is excellent as it's in middle of everything so you 5-10 minutes walk from beach , restaurants and arcades but it's far enough away so you not right on front amongst all hustle and bustle , the host is really friendly nothing is to much trouble , rooms are lovely size there's tea and coffee making facilities the shower is brilliant 😁

The bed was really comfy but bit low for me as I suffer with bad back other that everything was perfect we've actually stayed here twice now and rebooked to go back in September 👍

Very happy staff Very welcoming and made sure I was happy with everything The breakfast was cooked lovely along side providing different options if I didn't want a full cooked breakfast with cold and hot drinks The mattress and duvet was very comfy and the room I was giving was a lovely size very cosy and came with a hairdryer and drink facilities of tea, coffee and hot chocolate along with milk Only a 5 minute walk to the sea front

The pillows was not very puffy and seemed thin even with 2 pillows and i woke with a sore neck but that's just my personal preference

Lovely people !! Very friendly stay. Fantastic breakfast with a veggie option too. Nice shower and plenty of hot water. Loads or tea/coffee in room. Great location with easy walks to the pubs etc.

Really sorry but if we are honest we found the bed uncomfortable. The mattress was too thin and the bed rather low, but we didn’t say anything as we’re only there for a couple of nights. May be ok for others so please don’t think we’re moaning

Adam and Kat greeted us at the door and we were welcomed in, we chatted a while and then we went up to the room, myself and my young son unpacked our bag and he was excited to play darts and pool. Both Adam and Kat made were lovely, you couldn't ask for more, you can tell they liked their jobs and were happy to help in anyway possible. the room was perfect, lovely shower, tv (that worked!) beds were comfy, plenty of room and it was quiet, breakfast was lovely and at a good time.

bird poo on my car haha (obviously nothing Adam and Kat could do) I parked under a tree over night and didn't realise the amount of birds that slept in that tree

I stayed at The Craigside with my 12year old son for 2 nights whilst visting family. The stay was wonderful for what we needed it for. Literally a 3/4 minute walk to the beach and amenties, 10min walk from train station. Kat & Adam couldn't be more helpful. Considering there's 11 rooms in the house, it was quiet and had good sleep. Breakfast was included and was fantastic, hot and cold selections available. Rooms were modern, clean, spacious and had everything we needed. Overall clean, friendly, homely, with breakfast included also great value for money....Always used a caravan for skegness but will definitely be back to stay here :)

There's nothing I can complain about..Fantastic stay.

First of all the owners are lovely, everytime I came down for breakfast they welcomed you and the lady even said “usual” haha. I booked a single room, perfect for 1 person, nice and spacious and a perfect size bathroom. Very clean and comfortable. They asked you if you wanted anything for your room when you went down in the morning for breakfast. Recommend it that much that I have booked again for next year!

Everything was perfect.

Charming B&B with Excellent Hosts in Skegness I recently stayed at the The Craigside Bed and Breakfast in Skegness and had a lovely experience. Located just a short walk from the seaside, this B&B is an ideal place to stay if you're looking to enjoy the coastal town of Skegness. Upon arriving, I received a warm welcome from the owners. They showed me to my comfortable, decorated room which included a single bed, TV, private bathroom. The room was very clean. Overall, I highly recommend staying at The Craigside Bed and Breakfast if you plan to visit Skegness. The location is ideal, the rooms are cozy and clean, and the hosts make you feel right at home. It's a great value for money. I will certainly be staying here again on my next trip to the English coast.

Bathroom was a little cold and shower was hard to shower in.
