I wrote my last review on the Craigwell Guest House in Morecambe a year or so ago and I have continued to use it on my business visits ever since. I travel across the UK all the time - every week - and although I could use fancy hotels on my budget, I choose to use places like the Craigwell.

My recent visit , I experienced the usual friendly but professional welcome, the room was charming, stayed in it before- with stunning picture postcard views across the bay. Lots of great care touches, mineral water, fruit juices, healthy snacks, decent freeview lcd tv, soft fluffy towels, downstairs lounge, good breakfast selection - quality and well cooked on a kind of submarine ordering system (you will understand if you stay).

Doorstep parking, or at worst a car park at the rear.

Fantastic new stair carpet. (See my last review).

I do not take my cat on business trips, but if I did, he would be welcome at The Craigwell a would your well behaved dog.

This is how guest houses should be run and their varied awards show that.

Room Tip: Ask for a Bay View Room, but this is a 3 floor hotel so the views come at a suitcase- lugging price

We stayed at the craigwell for one night for our wedding anniversary. We were greeted by gill who was very friendly and showed us to our room. Which was nice and clean with a lovely sea view . Plenty of towels and a good selection of tea coffee juice and biscuits. Breakfast was really good good selection of fruit and cereal and the cooked breakfast was superb. Would loved to have stayed another night. Will definitely stay again

“Most recommended!”

We stayed at the Craigwell for 2 nights as we were visiting for a wedding. From the start of our stay to the time we left we were made very welcome. We stayed in room 11, which has a lot of stairs to it, but the room has great views over the bay and was very comfortable, spotless and well decorated. There were cartons of juice and water upon arrival as well as a good choice of tea and coffee and when we ran out of anything it was happily replenished. The breakfast menu has a great choice to suit all needs and tastes and we were well catered for. The cooked english breakfast is most recommended! We had an enjoyable stay at the Craigwell and would have no hesitation in advising others to give the Craigwell a visit.
