“Excellent place to stay”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 15 January 2012

Friendliest place to stay in Blackpool, the bedrooms are all themed around the world and immaculately clean and fully stocked with tea/coffee biscuits. Breakfasts are an absolutely joy with Jill's muesli layered breakfast treat a must. The Hornby Villa is an ideal place for families and couples and central to all amenities. We have stayed on numerous occasions and wouldn't recommend anywhere else in Blackpool. Nothing is to much trouble for these lovely people who constantly go out of their way to help where possible.

Many thanks cargo166 for joining tripadvisor & reviwing your stay this time . We are pleased you keep coming back time after time, alot of our business now comes from many repeat guests all year round. You are working your way around the world staying in a different room each time...lol . Glad you like our little theme to the rooms it makes them a bit different to the usual run of the mill bland rooms you get in many B&Bs. We also pride ourselves on our high standards of cleanliness & hospitality which is very much reflected in your review. We shall look forward to seeing you again for the Golf in July....Regards Gill & David

“Home from home”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 14 November 2011

If a warm welcome, good wholesome food, spotless cleanliness, convivial company, a feeling of security and a place to relax are your criteria for home, then the Horby Villa is a home from home. The fastidious owners offer all the above and work diligently to make your stay as comfortable and complete as it is possible. I would have no reservations about reserving a room there whenever I visit the holiday resort - PeterG

“Weekend Escape”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 9 November 2011

Our 2nd time staying at the Hornby Villa. 3 nights and the room was spotless and very
comfortable, the breakfast was just as good as the last visit and Gill & Dave were very
welcoming and helpful. This time took parents and both were very happy with the stay and have said they would stay here again - snap!

Room Tip: The four poster is a good room, but favorite is room 9 with the large bed, best sleep in ages.

Hello TravellingLady5 it was nice to see you both again & catch up on events from the last 6 months since we last saw you. A lot of our business is now repeat guests returning year after year or sometimes 2 /3 times a year. Having just completed our 4th season our figures show that over a 1/3 of our guests have stayed with us previously which makes us feel very proud of the accommodation we offer. We are pleased you liked Room 9 with the SuperKing bed & your parents in Room 5 Four poster. We look forward to welcoming you all back in 2012 & making our job worthwhile & fulfilling for us both.....Regards Gill & David

Hi SherryR thank you for this review of your stay in our Economy double en-suite room.
Although it's 1 of our smaller rooms & the last room available when you booked we are pleased you found it satisfactory for your 2 night stay with us. Alot of people book with us because we do not take stag/hen or group bookings they like the quiet friendly atmosphere & personal service. Breakfast is an important part of a guest's stay & we are glad you enjoyed yours.Thanks for recommending us to your friends & hope to see you again soon...Regards Gill & David
