Good old Ingoldmells, I'm 48 a few cafes and arcades, that's all I remember back in the day, spending so much money back then playing monacco gp,still love the game!
That pub on your left at the start of the vid, used to have an upstairs full of old arcade games- used to love that place, burnt down years ago-just a shell now
I do remember the boating lake and a massive holiday highlight to go on them. In the 70’s used to walk from Coastfields camp to Chapel and this took you past the boats 👍
Hi Neil look forward to video with old photos of skeg, 1970s period will be interesting.mum and dad had a van called gleams it was lovely, going skeg soon.
We used to go every year from about 1976-1985...dad used to fish at the boating lake EVERY morning, we would walk up from caravan site...slide used to be called AstroGlide 🙂
That’s right Autoglide I remember now, thank you for reminding me, it’s great you remember that. Thank you for subscribing keep enjoying the vlogs. Thanks NeilR 👍
Hi Cliff thank you for subscribing, me to was a kid in the late 60s going to ingoldmells all summer with mum and dad, we sometimes used jump in the car late afternoon and drive 2 hours just for a bag of chips. Thanks NeilR 👍
Great video and I'll be down ingoldmells tomorrow for the week. Woody's bar do some lovely food and on a sunday and wednesday's it's carvery and you won't go wrong 👌👍
Wow.... now that really was a trip down memory lane, always had a week staying on gillings Silver beach in the 70's and 80's, a walk down to the boating lake and further on to Chapel St Leonards,some great times and great memories made ,it has changed but still recognisable and although it seems to get put down a lot, still a fantastic place for a good old family holiday..
Thank you for the great comments, I glad it brought back loads of memories, I will be putting more videos on in future. Also thank you for subscribing 👍 Thanks NeilR
@@dianasmith4636 Hi Diana, I hope that brought back great memories for you, it’s great to visit the places I used to go to with my family all them years ago. Thanks NeilR 👍

@@neilrgreatestadventures, if you carry on front towards chap, there's a cut off, their are caravan and touring pitches around it. You can get to it from bottom of trunch lane in chap.
At 6.50. Sure that is the entrance to a caravan site my dad`s great uncle got after WW2. They was virtually giving land away. I stayed there as a kid. My great Aunty Enid would go round collecting the money out the toilets when she was really old.
Thanq for the video At Ingoldmells are there any hotels on Promenade ? I ask cos in 2024 my sister & I are going to Skegness for a week, maybe Ingoldmells might make a nice change, it's got to be a hotel tho, we are both walking impaired & need a lift.
Hi Lynne not really, you would better off staying in one of the hotels in Skegness then catching the bus or a taxi to ingoldmells. That’s what ingoldmells is missing a good hotel. I hope that helps.. NeilR 🙏😎👍
Hi Adam, not sure what’s happening it’s all closed up looks like it needs knocking down and something to replace it. It says it’s permanently closed on the internet, it’s a shame, I wonder if the company the tried to do it up failed though covid. I’ll ask about see if anyone knows. Thanks NeilR
Chisitts how much chis it that's how folk say leicester people sound, instead of saying how much is it, they put the c in fir some reason, sorry if that was a boring point 😆

I remember as a kid in the early 80s the beach was about 30 foot lower down from the top of the walkway
Hi David yes I remember that to, I might even have a few photos of me and the family sat on them eating prawns out of a paper bag 😄
There's a lovely lake on the way to chap, boats on, fishing and a lovely cafe.
Is it among the caravan we’re you can just see it off the sea wall
@@neilrgreatestadventures, if you carry on front towards chap, there's a cut off, their are caravan and touring pitches around it. You can get to it from bottom of trunch lane in chap.
Love the channel keep it up
Thank you 🙏
i remember the petrol boats also the slide we had a van on 8 acres
Same here Mark, it’s a shame the slide and cable cars had to go, there’s nothing there now 🙁
At 6.50. Sure that is the entrance to a caravan site my dad`s great uncle got after WW2. They was virtually giving land away. I stayed there as a kid. My great Aunty Enid would go round collecting the money out the toilets when she was really old.
I love hearing great stories of the past, and it’s great if my videos bring back loads of memories 😊👍🙏

Caught my biggest carp on that lake
Any idea what they're doing with the Bell Inn that caught fire a few years back?? thought it'd be a cafe by now
