We stayed at Walkden house Newyears eve 2025-2026 . Perfectly situated next central car park just behind the tower exactly where we wanted to be for our evening out . The Walkden contacted us asking if we wanted to add breakfast to our booking also giving us intent passwords and all the information we needed for a perfect stay . On our arrival we were greeted by a lovely young man who welcomed us booked us in and actually took us to our room ( lovely touch ) old fashioned good honest hosting. The hotel has a very warm and welcoming 1950s feel the furniture and finishing touches stand out giving a warm home from home feel which is also reflected in our hosts hosting style. Our room was immaculately clean , the bed was so incredibly comfortable I need to know were they sorced it, as I am looking at getting one . Breakfast, omg I wish I had took a photo to post no kidding it was beautiful . no miserable chain pub offerings here, a Walkden breakfast very harty well made well presented full English with as much continental cereals fruit and toast as you like if you could fit anything in after the cooked breakfast absolutely lovely. Great value for money, Great location , Great Breakfast fantastic hosts. We visit Blackpool two three times a year and the Walkden will be our first choice in the future. Well done guys I can not praise you enough for this little gem and the your good old fashioned hosting style. See you soon. Allison and Richie

The hosts were lovely. The hotel was welcoming, warm and calming. The rooms were enough and throughly clean. The facilities were exceptional and the breakfast in the morning was excellent. Nothing was too much. Best B&B I've encountered in Blackpool!

Neil 8.0

Lovely stay, I was not very comfortable on a hard bed, but can’t please everyone on this. Could have done a 2nd Check under bed ( someone before left a part opened bottle of Lucozade and other items ). Other areas of room clean and tidy.
