  • "We have stayed in many Sykes Cottages but found Seashells Cottage to be fairly basic."

    There was no dressing table in either of the bedrooms, no hairdryer & most of the soft furnishings had seen better days. We also think it very mean to only provide 1 toilet roll. However, the bed was comfortable, the cottage was situated in a nice area with local facilities & the TV &Wifi were very good.

    Hi Ian, I am sorry to hear your stay wasn't up to expectations. Unfortunatey we didn't have a mobile number from Sykes, so you didn't get our usual text updates. Appreciate the feedback and we are planning to put a small dressing table in the main bedroom. I'm sorry you didn't find the hairdryer, as it's stored in the main bedroom wardrobe. I will take a look and replace any of the cushions that are looking tired. The cleaners do normally leave more than 1 toilet roll, so I'll make sure this is resolved and my apologies. Thanks for the feedback, as we're always looking to improve. Property Owner

    We have booked to return for a third time as it is so lovely. The only slight change that we would like to recommend would be to have a hand rail at the bottom part of the stairs. It would make it safer for slightly older people.

About the location

LYTHAM ST. ANNES

Blackpool 5.2 miles.

The seaside towns of Lytham and St Annes-on-Sea nestle along a picturesque stretch of coastline lined with pretty parks. For many centuries, the economy of this lovely area was dependent entirely on fishing until the beginning the Industrial Revolution, which resulted in the wealthy creating an affluent area, lasting until the present day. A short stroll from the Lytham seafront brings you to leafy Clifton Street, where you’ll find charming boutiques, restaurants and independent shops. Lytham Green, a strip of grass running between the shore and the main coastal road, is a notable landmark, overlooking the River Ribble towards the Welsh Mountains, and home to the restored Windmill and Old Lytham Lifeboat House museum. Those interested in craft ales can take a tour of the Lytham Brewery, whilst walkers and twitchers will adore the rolling sandy dunes of St Annes-on-Sea and the Ribble Estuary providing a safe haven for more than 250,000 migrating birds that return each winter. The area is internationally renowned for golf with four courses to choose from, the most notable being the Royal Lytham & St Annes Golf Club, one of the host courses for the Open Championship. Traditional seaside pastimes can be enjoyed at St Annes-on-Sea with a pretty pier and charming little beach huts in an array of pastels offering visitors a unique, exciting addition for a day beside the sea. A short walk from the pier brings you to St Annes Square and Wood Street, where you'll find charming coffee shops, tea rooms, restaurants and independent shops. Lovely long strolls, sunny afternoons on the sand or fun-filled frolics in nearby Blackpool, Lytham St Annes is a charming coastal destination with plenty to offer. Boating, cycling, shopping and swimming can all also be enjoyed nearby, along with award-winning restaurants, traditional pubs and wine bars should you fancy celebrating. Whatever you want from your seaside getaway, Lytham St Annes is an ideal choice.
