“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.

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.
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.
Location

The location is great for accessing various attractions. It is within walking distance to the beach. There are plenty of shops and restaurants close by, which offer a variety of options for dining and entertainment.

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.
