Andy and Bernie are the perfect hosts who have so much knowledge about the local area. They couldn’t do enough to make our stay enjoyable and Bernie’s breakfast is a perfect way to start the day. We will definitely be back

First time staying at the Rock Dene and it certainly will not be our last. What an amazing couple who run it. It was like a home from home. We would rate it 10 stars if we could. We have found our little home when we are away now. Thank you andrew and berni for an amazing time. We will see you soon xx

Great hotel!!
We stayed for 1 night, 2 adults & 3 children. Andy & Bernadette were lovely hosts from start to finish. The hotel was beautifully clean and was well stocked with teas coffees & soaps etc. The breakfast was exceptional....with a huge variety to choice from. After a long day at the pleasure beach Andy was happy to serve us at the very well stocked bar with a variety of gin :) until we were finished. I highly recommend this hotel, we will definitley be returning!

Pleasant, but brief, stay
Exactly how a guest house should be. Everything given thought, with excellent attention to detail, and use of available space was spot on. Service was very friendly, but not imposing. Some nice touches, especially at breakfast. Couldn't fault it!

Very clean and very friendly place to stay. Made very welcome by staff and would have no hesitation in going back. Rooms are gorgeous, we had the four poster bedroom and it's beautiful. My mum and daughters had other rooms and they were gorgeous too. Breakfast was brilliant and the bar well stocked. Would Highly recommend a stay here!

Dear Carol, Thank you very much for taking the time to write a review. Unfortunately, we are unable to recognise your stay with us - we were prepared to host you, but then had to mark your booking as a no-show when you did not appear for check-in. We have attempted several times to have your review removed, as it looks like your text was aimed at a different hotel. However, we were unsuccessful - now, we are trying to reach out to you by replying to this review: Could you please confirm that you did indeed not stay at our property? We feel like we do not deserve this review, as you did not stay with us. Kind regards, Andy

Very clean with friendly staff.
We were meeting friends in Blackpool so were looking for somewhere reasonably price to stay. We couldn't have picked a better place. Everything was so clean and the staff made you feel at home, they were such a lovely couple. They went out their way to make sure our stay was as comfortable as possible. Would definitely stay here again and would recommend this to anyone.

Great and safe place close to beach and transit.
I love this couple, they are so wonderful, I was traveling alone from the US and I was a bit nervous and they helped me feel safe and comfortable, they knew where and how to get to everything and I didn't get lost once. They also are knowledgeable in all of the events and places to go, even have deals to some of them . The place is lovely, very clean and new, nicely decorated felt very upscale, and breakfast wast great. And if you just want to relax after a long day they have a private bar! And the price can't be beat! Definitely going to stay here again and recommend to all of my friends!

Amazing plesent staff
The owner had reserved a car parking space for us for when we arrived. This was a good thing as parking in the are was very limited. Andy and Bernadette couldn't do enough for you. They are brilliant hosts. When we arrived Andy asked what we had planned, they had been given tickets to the 80s festivel on the sea front. When we said we didn't have anything planned tha evening, Andy gave us 4 tickets. It was a brilliant evening. The room we stayed in was small but fit for purpose. They are clean and smell lovely. The only downside was there was no blackout blinds on the window.so when the sun rose at 4/5am so did I. We can not wait to come back again. Would highly recommend.

Would recommend this hotel to anyone. The whole hotel is incredibly clean, the family who run the hotel are as friendly and as helpful as can be.

Little gem
Excellent stay at the rock dene the owners Andy and berni go out of their way to help from bringing in our cases, parking the car even helping to repair a broken finger nail nothing was too much trouble. Always a good chat and laugh at the well stocked 24 hour bar and berni was full of information on best places to visit and dine. Can't wait to visit this gem again. Love karen and Gill x

The hotel owner was absolutely fabulous, really welcoming and gave us lots of advice on where to go for the day and where to eat etc. Bedroom was small but perfect for a short stay, very home like and comfortable. Would not need more than one night stay purely because we ran out of things to do without it getting too expensive!

Stayed for 2 nights bank holiday weekend. The rooms were a little small and Im not sure I could have stayed there for longer than a couple of nights in the same room with our untidy teenager but we didn't plan on sitting in the room all day. The bed was comfortable and the bedding and room was clean and tidy. The owners are very friendly and helpful and take an interest in you while you are there. Breakfast was lovely. I would definitely return
