Grooms Cottage - 2-bedroom holiday home with private hot tub and equestrian centre access
Accommodation
The two-bedroom holiday home offers a fully equipped kitchen, washing machine, and free toiletries. A hot tub in a roofed gazebo with curtained sides provides private relaxation. The log burner (multi-fuel stove) is lit by the host upon arrival, providing immediate warmth.
Location
The cottage is located 9 km from North Pier and Blackpool Tower, and 10 km from Winter Gardens Conference Centre and Blackpool Zoo. Manchester Airport is 94 km away. The property sits on an equestrian centre in a quiet village location close to Cleveleys seafront.
Family-Friendly
Bunk beds come with an adjustable bed guard already in place, eliminating the need for guests to bring their own. The main double bedroom has an electric blanket for extra comfort. The secure garden and friendly host contribute to a family-friendly environment noted by visitors.
Pet-Friendly
Dogs are welcome at the cottage, with a secure garden and an outdoor kennel available. Parking is located right outside the property. The host's friendly dogs also greet guests, but the property is suitable for reactive dogs due to separate spaces.
