A Victorian seaside original, held lightly into a new century.
The Royal opened its doors to its first guests in the summer of 1895 — when Skegness was still a young town, the pier was new, and a holiday by the sea meant a journey, not a weekend.
A grand Victorian original on the Lincolnshire coast — 130 years of saltwater mornings, fire-warm evenings and slow Sunday lunches, five minutes from the sea.
