I visited Mablethorpe for the first time last weekend for one evening in a static caravan with my boyfriend. My friends all laughed and couldn't understand why we'd choose there as a destination and we initially probably wouldn't have- my boyfriends's nan has a caravan there and said we could use it for free- hence free night away :-) We left Sheffield on a bank holiday Friday afternoon, it took about 2 hours to get there and the country roads were pretty but windy thus not good if you get a little travel sick. We got there pretty quickly and thankfully didn't get caught in any traffic- pretty good for a pre August bank holiday. We drove down the ...  Read the complete review

Mablethorpe....pretty at times Mablethorpe is a small seaside resort on the east coast some 20 miles or so from the famous Skeggy(costa del Skegness-lol).It has plenty of amusements and lights to draw the kids attention but if it is a modern fresh resort you are after you sadly wont find it here.If you are however looking for a somewhat traditional break....most likely a short one then it is ideal for this. With numerous hotels,b&b's and caravan/camping sites there is no shortage of places to stay....there is even a Haven which is within walking distance of the beach and dunes...the prettier parts anyway!Every year thousands of people flood there and ...  Read the complete review

Mablethorpe is a seaside resort on the east lincolnshire coast. It is a lot less developed than other seaside resorts but Im not sure if this is a good thing or not. There isn't really too much to do here and I think a week would be tedious. Just like other British seaside towns they have been aloud to deteriorate over the past 50 years to look as they do. Very little money has been spent here in a long time. There is quite a lot of accomodation choice in Mablethorpe from large caravan sites to B&Bs and small hotels. Availability is always good and few are ever fully booked. The large sites are again a little rough round the edges and need some ...  Read the complete review

Seacroft Holiday Estate, Mablethorpe. I have spent most of my holidays at this site since I was five years old, and now as a mother myself I take my family back there whenever I can. Location The site itself is around a 30 minute walk from the main town of Mablethorpe itself. The beaches surrounding the site can be accessed from the site, but do be warned this is accesses from stone steps. The beaches are clean and quite, don't be surprised to only see a few other families as because it's not near the town centre, the beaches never get packed, so you can sit back and feel the sand in your toes and the sea breeze in your hair, I have ...  Read the complete review

If you have young children then Mablethorpe really is a lovely place to go for a holiday. I have three young children and at the moment we go there every year. After a disastrous journey on our first holiday with children we decided to stay closer to home and avoid the travelling until they were a little older. I thought it was a bit silly not even to leave the county to go on holiday but to avoid the screaming I agreed. I have to say that I really like it. It's not as big as other resorts in the area like Cleethorpes or Skegness but it has everything that a young family needs. The beach is really big and usually very clean and I've never seen it ...  Read the complete review
