The quaint little village of Chapel St Leonards is situated on the Lincolnshire coast, seven miles from the popular resort of Skegness.

The beautiful long sandy beaches and sand dunes are the perfect place to relax, with brightly painted beach huts adding to the appeal of this charming village.

Each year there is the Chapel Carnival Parade, which includes an array of creative floats and activities on the Village Green, complete with a fireworks display on the promenade.

Beds not top end but fine but nicer pillows would be good. Barely any clothes storage but not much room for it tbh! Water very slow from hot tap but shower was fine. Sofas also fine, don't know why someone was moaning? Struggled to find window keys but found them eventually- maybe a little welcome letter with some info on would help. Decking great with outside seating & we had the weather for it luckily. Had a lovely stay & wouldn't hesitate to book again - location is fab. To the reviewer who said Chapel was a dump, how rude! It's a lovely little place - if it's not your sort of place you should have done your research & gone somewhere a little "snobbier"

Great little chalet to stay at but definitely go again only downfall was the water pressure for the shower and the streaky double bed
