    The location was ideal, just a short walk to the Tower, and other seafront attractions. It was also just a short Uber ride to the Pleasure Beach. The property was clean, and well presented. Our room was on the top floor, which was good for us.

Company information

We have been running our B&B since relocating to Lancashire in 2007. We’re both a little older now after 18yrs here & while we still enjoy it we have cut back to letting just 6 rooms & having a bit more time to ourselves to enjoy life & family time now we have Grandchildren. We’re originally from Brighouse West Yorkshire where David used to be a travel agent & then ran the family business Bainbridges Newsagents in the town centre with Gill helping out in between her own job as a housekeeper/cook & nanny for a local family. We decided we wanted a career change while being our own boss & chose Blackpool (because of the famous illuminations) to own & run a B&B as David is very customer focused & good at front of house while Gill has OcD in cleaning rooms & cooks an excellent quality breakfast (her pet hate on a breakfast is cheap sausages). David is football mad so if you’re into football, doesn’t matter what team he’ll talk the hind legs off you . So that's a bit about us & we'd love to welcome you into our home & get to know abit about you...

Property information

The Hornby Villa is not a party hotel/B&B. We don't accommodate Stags/Hens, Groups of Single Or Mixed Sex or late night nighclubbers as we specialise in quiet relaxing breaks in a homely environment.... We welcome Couples, Event Delegates , Dancers (inc Northern Soul Weekenders), The Solo Traveller & Families with Children 4yrs+-- Sorry but we also don’t accommodate Any Young Farmers for the Annual Young Farmers AGM. The Hornby Villa is a late victorian house awarded 4*B&B status by Visit Britain for our high standards of cleanliness / hospitality / breakfasts & the presentation of our rooms which vary in size & price. Perfectly situated at the top of Hornby Road away from the hustle & bustle of the noisy nightlife but only a short 5 min walk to the Winter Gardens..The Sealife Centre,Blackpool Tower, Central Pier,Town Centre & the Promenade also a short 5-10min Walk.

Neighbourhood information

We can personally recommend a few nice restaurants in town that we’ve tried & been very happy with the food & service … There’s The Mandarin Chinese/ The Akash Indian/ The Hungarian Restaurant/ The Bank Restaurant for bistro style food / Yorkshire Fisheries (only open till 7pm tho)….or Papas Fish & Chip / restaurant. West coast rock cafe for massive burgers & Mexican & Quilligans for good value Pub grub.
