'It's the wrong thing in the wrong place'
Hotel owners in Skegness have expressed their fury over £7 million proposals to build a new Travelodge and Starbucks on the seafront. The sizeable development would be built on the site of a former crazy golf course on South Parade - in front of some local hotels - as part of the plans, which are likely to be approved.
"I'm opposed to it heavily, there's only a few hotels left on this road and are doing well. I have no problem with progression in the town but they should put it on the outskirts, not right here, it's just silly." Owner of Balmoral Hotel on South Parade, Alison Gardner, said: "The piece of ground has to be developed, it's not the greatest but something has got to go there. I'm a bit concerned that it's a slope up and headlights will shine into our bedrooms with people trying to get out.
"We've got more than enough hotels already and it's going make all these B&Bs down here lose their sea views. This area should be used for attractions. The crazy golf site was one of the oldest attractions in the town and now they're going to put a concrete monstrosity on there.
