Northwest UK Golf Trip

The VERDO House Blackpool was ideal for our party size. Seven bedrooms each outfitted with its own bathroom/shower was ideal for 7 adult men on a golf trip. The location was perfect for the first leg of our trip - easy drives to our course destinations.Sally is a truly amazing owner. Communication is clear from the start - her willingness to accommodate specific requests is greatly appreciated and her attentiveness during the stay is very helpful.A great experience.

Great

The only thing I would have liked, and maybe this is a preference, is contact with the Host slightly earlier than a few days before our stay.

Stunning views

We have just spent the weekend at this lovely apartment (apartment 5, penthouse) for my mams 60th birthday. The apartment is gorgeous, spacious, modern with a stunning view of the ocean and promenade! The owners were very on hand and corresponded with us very efficiently. You're less than a 10 minute walk to the central pier, about 15 minute walk to the tower and centre. Really could not fault the location. I was a bit worried reading reviews mentioning the outside of the building, as you have to enter through the back, of course it isnt going to be stunning! But it didnt put us off at all considering how gorgeous it was inside. My only critism would be to get the downstairs hallway tidied up as there was paint falling off the walls on some areas, which is a shame considering the effort they've made with the apartments. There are also alot of stairs to get to the top which my mam struggled with but she loved it so much she said she would still go back there. Overall a wonderful stay and we would definitely return :)
