The Sandcastle Trust Caravan – Skegness

Description

A wheelchair accessible caravan located on the action packed Southview Holiday Park in Skegness.

The caravan has its own reserved disabled parking space, ramp access, and a spacious accessible wet room. Inside, the layout is light and welcoming, with an open-plan living and dining area featuring comfortable sofas, electric fire, Smart TV, and a free-standing dining table and chairs.

The caravan sleeps up to six guests, with:

  • One twin bedroom;
  • One master bedroom, with a standard double and single bed;
  • A small double sofa bed in the lounge (this is small so better suited to just one person).

The accessible wet room includes a step-free, roll-in shower with fixed grab rails, a wall-mounted shower seat, and a WC with a drop-down grab rail.

The fully fitted kitchen has a wheel-under section of worktop, along with a fridge, microwave, and oven.

To make your break as stress-free as possible, the following are included:

  • Entertainment passes for all guests
  • Gas and electricity
  • Duvets, pillows, and bed linen
  • Bath and hand towels and bath mat
  • Wi-Fi

Please note: guests will need to bring their own swimming towels.

Outside, there is a large lockable storage box to the rear of the caravan, suitable for specialist equipment, mobility scooters, bikes, or pushchairs. There is a decked terrace at the back of the caravan with a table, seating and parasol.

The Park & Facilities

Southview Holiday Park is a large, family-friendly park with a wide range of facilities and activities available on site. Entertainment passes are included with your break and will be in the caravan on arrival – each guest receives their own pass. These allow access to all on-park facilities, including swimming pools, kids’ clubs, cafes, bars, restaurants, and the main entertainment complex. Please carry your pass with you during your stay.

Some activities require pre-booking and an additional charge (marked with an asterix below). The Sandcastle Trust’s guests receive 20% off paid activities when booking with their entertainment passes. Activities can be booked at Reception or the Arts & Crafts Den once you arrive.

Exploring Skegness and the Coast

Southview Holiday Park is situated just two miles from Skegness beach and the attractions of this traditional seaside town. Skegness beach is known for being clean and accessible, with the North Shore typically quieter than the central areas. When the tide is out, there are lovely walks along the sand dunes, and the beach offers good access for wheelchair users and pushchairs. Beach wheelchairs can be hired from Embassy Theatre (approx. £20 per day).

Nearby attractions include donkey rides, the Fairy Dell paddling pool, the pier, promenade, and fairground. Fantasy Island, with its fair and market, is just a 10-minute drive away, offering another stretch of sandy beach.

There is a regular bus service running every 30 minutes from the park to both Skegness and Ingoldmells. While the on-site convenience store is ideal for essentials, larger supermarkets including Aldi, M&S Food Hall, and Morrisons are all a short drive away.
