I found the owners to be a friendly couple, informative and helpful. The location was situated close to the sea front and easy walking to the town centre. Plenty of bars, cafes etc close to the accommodation, all very easy walking distance. The location had plenty of free street parking, and I found it very quiet at night with very little traffic noise etc, so easy to sleep. Buses are are also very close, just a short walk to the Prom and you will find regular buses going to many places of interest. I would recommend the Sanderling when visiting Morecambe.

Would highly recommend anyone wanting to visit Morecambe to stay at the Sanderling. Dave and his wife are very welcoming and make the perfect hosts with nothing being too much trouble. Location was great and lots of free parking outside. Room was clean and a good size with a nice en-suite. Really good nights sleep with the room being nice and warm and comfortable bed. Finished our stay with a very nice cooked breakfast. Big thank you to Dave and his wife for making our stay very comfortable and making us feel at home. Will definitely be back and anyone thinking about staying in Morecambe stay at the sanderling you won’t be disappointed

The owner/hostess was welcoming as well as being attentive but without being intrusive. I really loved the fact that both the room and bathroom were absolutely spotlessly clean. And to round off my stay, the Continental breakfast was truly delicious and beautifully presented, all attention to detail being second to none! Thank you to the owner/hostess for a pleasant stay at her hotel. I will surely be back for another stay before too long!
I unfortunately found the bathroom to be rather small and so a little cramped for my full comfort, in spite of it being one of the cleanliest I have ever used. Again unfortunately the bedroom was rather bland from the point of view that it totally lacked any kind of splash of decorative colour, plus there were no pictures on the walls. Finally - although this last point is no-one's "fault" in that this happens very frequently whenever I am staying away from home - I unfortunately slept rather fitfully, simply because the bed while comfortable enough, was not my own!

Lovely place in Morecambe. We started cycling the Way of the Roses the next day and we're able to leave our bikes inside overnight which was greatly appreciated. Check in was easy and friendly with tips on where to eat. The room was clean and had everything needed, with a perfectly servicable bathroom.
My only gripe would be the single-use soap, shampoo etc. in the bathroom - it would be good if this could become refillable dispensers.

Location was pretty central for facilities. Parking was on the roads around and free on all roads. Room was clean and spacious with plenty of drawers. Shower room was good size.
When we arrived there was a tiny amount of toilet roll and we asked for more but when we came back from a day out there was still none in the room, had to go and ask again. Was apologetic and was sorted.

The bedroom was spacious , well furnished especially with basket arm chairs. Meura , the hostess landlady was very personable , interesting and helpful. Given that we left on Sunday morning and rather late ,we appreciated the flexibility shown to us.
Breakfast was perhaps a bit mixed in quality. Perhaps this was partly due to us having it rather late . But the fried eggs were a bit disappointing with yolks on the harder side but bacon was of good quality . Perhaps a greater variety of fruit and better quality yoghurts could be considered.

Hotel was in a good location with plenty of street parking. Family room was excellent as we need three beds. We had a double bed, a foldaway single bed and then another single bed in a room of its own which was ideal for our party. Owners are excellent, room was spotless, bar was good and breakfast was excellent.
Need get more JD in when we come again lol.

From the moment we arrived we were made to feel very welcome. We were in Room 11 which was at the front on the second floor and we had a fantastic view of the beach and the sunset. The hosts were extremely friendly and helpful from the moment we arrived. The room was much more than we expected, lovely and clean, modern, with a private en suite bathroom and it was extremely comfortable. We will definitely be booking again for next year. Thankyou Meru and Dave ☺️

The staff at this property are just fantastic! They kindly allowed us to book in really early to give us time to change to attend a funeral. I was comfortable during my stay, slept like a log with around 8 hours of completely undisturbed sleep. warm enough but not too hot. Parking was easy for all 3 cars our group was using. Breakfast was easily the best breakfast I have had for absolute ages and I travel extensively! Thanks to everyone.
Nothing. one of my friends was a little cooler overnight so maybe a thicker throw in the bed during winter might be good for those who like to be really hot through the night. not a complaint, his personal preference.
