All Saints Church, Skipsea, East Riding of Yorkshire, England. Skipsea Castle was recorded as having a church in around 1100 and the dedication to All Saints or All Hallows was recorded from about 1500. In 1311 the vicar in this seemingly quiet East Yorkshire village was censured for an unspecified offence with a woman, and in 1578 and 1650 women from Skipsea and neighbouring Ulrome were accused of witchcraft. In 1665 it appears that minister Ralph Cornwall was replaced at All Saints because of drunkenness, brawling and other offences. The church has been much altered having fallen into disrepair on many occasions. It was probably rebuilt in the 14th century and was rebuilt from an almost ruinous state in 1866 to designs by James Fowler of Louth.

Great hotel I'm central location and close to transport links. Arrived to check in and a warm cookie - checks for allergies done at the same time. Was a short trip so didn't use the hotel facilities but would stay again.

8.8/10 Excellent! (37 reviews)
Damp smell throughout, furniture and furnishing were very cheap and aged. Disappointed with the quality versus what was advertised. Very small shower/barhroom, squeezed in. Not a premium or executive stay, very basic flat. For the cost, a hotel room would be a better option.
