Lovely b&b very clean & well presented. Really fell in our feet finding this little gem. From check in to check out everything was great - the small touches shied the owners cared about their guests for example a small pair of scissors on breakfast table - who can open tomato sauce without exploding it everywhere? Loved everything about the place

Our stay at the fountaindale was lovely. The owners were fab and very accommodating. The small but lovely and evweythingn you need. A short walk to the clock tower, and all other activities. The only things I will say that are a little negative are the shower pressure in Room 4 is not the best, howevee we dis manage to shower so all was food and the mattress is worn.

Response from Gemma on 22 May 2021
Thankyou for taking the time to leave us a review- Room 4 is our smallest Double Ensuite room which is why we list it as such on all Online sites so as not to disappoint guests. The shower in this room is an 800x800 shower so larger than a standard 760 one. The water pressure in Skegness as a whole is not great but we are blessed with being just off the seafront which means ours is better than most. The beds were brand new last July for opening and were used for 3 months due to lockdown but i will of course go and check the mattress-all of our beds are protected so it is not because it is an old mattress but there may be another issue that will be rectified.
