Overnight stay after football match

We were welcomed by two lovely ladies who greeted us and told us where our room was.It was clean and modern with en suite shower.We were going to watch Sunderland at Blackpool i asked which bus to get to the ground they said they could ring me a taxi which i agreed.We went to see the legends they 80s tribute singers at central pier on the nightime which was excellent, last 4 hours. Next day we had our breakfasts we had orange juice then cereal then cooked breakfast which was delicious. I would advice parking to the right of Gynway. We will definitely be back .

As a solo woman I cannot recommend this place enough, really chilled and near the seafront for great walks, away from the main strip although a short walk there if you need it. Lovely breakfast and felt so safe. Thank you x

I'm so glad I picked this Guest House in Blackpool

I'm so glad I chose this Guest House to stay at, after reading some awful reviews about other places (Always do your research first. For example l, I went to the Blackpool Tower Circus yesterday, had a fantastic couple of hours there and during the interval got chatting to a couple in front of me and they didn't realise that the Circus ring is directly centred under the Tower itself. The four feet of the tower are around you. I only found this out by doing a bit of research Googling it. The Circus is amazing and for under £18.00 is good value for money these days. I also saw a good play at the Grand Theatre nearby too for the same price. There are also 4 Wetherspoon's pubs nearby selling good food and drink for sensible prices. Watch out for the Managers Specials - Some Real Ale for £1.49 and some meals half price, that sort of thing). At the Gynway Guest House you can't go wrong and you'll get a lovely breakfast on the morning, with cornflakes and other cereals, orange juice, and also a Full English with toast and jams, perfectly cooked fried bread, egg, sausage, bacon, and a choice of plumb tomatoes or mushrooms, a vegetarian option is there too. Tea and coffee. Fill your boots! The two ladies who own the business and have been there for 20+ years will look after you, big time, trust me. For the money, I was well impressed, especially when I'm loving on a budget. Well done ladies. Thank you for a great stay! ☺️
