Worth weighing

3 to weigh
  • Check-in is limited to afternoon hours — Arrivals are only accepted between 14:00 and 22:00, which may be inconvenient for those reaching Blackpool late at night.
  • No pets allowed — The property does not accommodate pets, so guests travelling with animals will need to look elsewhere.
  • Early check-out time — Check-out is between 08:00 and 10:00, so you'll need to be up and out relatively early on departure day.
