Grange Leisure Park

We love coming here a few times a year with our two dogs. Meeting Terry, who works in the Amusements on site, made this year’s break extra special. He’s so friendly, made us feel welcome, and genuinely went above and beyond. He’s a real credit to Coastfields at Grange Leisure park.

We paid a great price for five nights and would definitely come back. The 8 berth lodge with hot tub was lovely and clean, with plenty of space for all of us. The bedrooms and general living area were a decent size. Both bathrooms have ying / yang doors that let you turn them into an en-suite. The kitchen had all the utensils we needed for a few days. The pier is a five-minute drive away and Skegness about 25 minutes.

The platinum lodge was stunning and so spacious, my favourite of all the lodges I’ve stayed in. The showers had good pressure and plenty of room, and the mattresses were soft. The beds are bigger than standard, with roomy singles that would be comfortable for adults too. My only lodge complaint at that price is the pillows. They were thin, lumpy and very old, like something from a crusty old B&B, and my neck wasn’t happy. Bring your own pillows and you’ll feel very relaxed and at peace here. Other sites in the Hoseasons bookings 'luxury' filter provide salt, pepper and a little cooking oil. Those are nice touches but wouldn’t stop me booking again. We’ll definitely return, next time for longer than a weekend. It’s great value in March, though the price reflects peak season. The site is huge. We had a very windy weekend, and it was handy to drive to the clubhouse, with parking opposite. One staff member was clearly untrained. It would help to check in on new staff and support them, because it was obvious to us as customers after watching for just five minutes. Another staff member was carrying the new one, and it was sad to see the pressure they were under. The arcades haven’t yet been updated to the new card loading system, and lots of machines are faulty, though staff were on hand to help. Entertainment isn’t as fun as at some places, but they try, and it’s easy to sit with a drink while the kids enjoy the arcades next door. The pool at the sister site is about a half-hour drive away. There’s a big Tesco, fuel and B&M roughly five minutes away. I wish the site sold duck food, as the kids love feeding the ducks that come to say hi at the lodges.

I own a static caravan here. The accommodation is more spaced out than at most parks, and it’s not far from Mablethorpe town or supermarkets. There’s a Spar on site too. Amenities are good, though some don’t open much, if at all, during winter. Staff in the bars are friendly, and the food is good without being ridiculously priced.
