“Ivydene Guest House strikes me as a spot where the family-run atmosphere genuinely aims to please, even if some experiences can be uneven. Its proximity to Skegness Beach is a real draw, and the promise of a hearty, homemade breakfast is appealing, especially before a day of seaside fun. For travelers who value a personal touch and don't mind some quirks, Ivydene could be a worthwhile base for exploring Skegness.”

amazing stay, definitely coming back!
great location spacious room really good breakfast
I REALLY loved the location. It was super close to the town center, just a short walk. my room, a twin room or small family room, was spacious and had plenty of tea and coffee. breakfast each morning was fantastic.
the stairs to the upper floors were a little narrow, only a minor inconvenience.

narrow stairs temperamental shower
i felt the room was TOO small. the narrow stairs were difficult to navigate. the shower was rather temperamental, i struggled with the temperature. ALSO, the lack of parking was REALLY inconvenient. it WAS a struggle finding a suitable spot nearby.

wet mats urine smell
the breakfast was nice, i couldn't fault it. (especially the sausages!)
i don't think it is worth the money i paid for a two night break. it felt quite expensive for what i got. the mats in the shower and toilet area was wet, i personally would have changed them knowing someone was going into that room. it also had a strong smell of urine, which another family member also reported in their toilet and shower area.

Fantastic Stay!
warm welcome easy check-in spacious room amazing breakfast
The welcome I received was very warm. Check-in was quick and easy. My room was spacious, super clean, and well-ventilated. Breakfast was amazing. It was one of the best I have enjoyed in a long time. The location was ideal for visiting local attractions.
The mattress could have been firmer, but this is only a personal preference. It did not affect my stay.

underwhelming stay
small room noisy at night
the breakfast was acceptable. it filled me up before i went out for the day.
The room was smaller than i anticipated. the ceiling sloped, so i had to be cautious not to bump my head. it was also a bit noisy at night. I could hear other guests.
