We booked the Philmar for a last minute break in Skegness. We had a great time . The rooms are nicely decorated as is the rest of the house. The dining room looks lovely in particular. The rooms are very comfortable and everything you could possibly want is available. The rooms are also spotless! The welcome was very warm and... More

The Philmar is a family run guest house as stated on our website you obviously didn't like children !!! I don't think a child is rude when they are merely just asking for mum. Your small double room that was booked at £88 for 2 nights was upgraded to a large double on arrival so you could be next to... More

When we got there they was shocked to see two people and said we had only paid for one person and made us pay extra (£80 for two nights). Then they said... More
