Map of the UK

The coastal village and civil parish of Ingoldmells sits on the east coast of Lincolnshire within the district of East Lindsey, close to the resort of Skegness. It fronts long sandy beaches, dunes and salt marshes, with the nature reserve at Gibraltar Point nearby, giving it a mix of seaside amenity and important coastal habitats.

Historically a small fishing and farming community, Ingoldmells expanded in the 20th century as holiday camps and caravan parks - most famously Butlin's - made tourism the dominant local industry, producing a pronounced seasonal population and a service‑sector workforce. The parish still has a village nucleus and parish church amid rows of chalets and amusement arcades, so life alternates between quiet off‑season rhythms and lively summer activity linked to the wider Lincolnshire coast visitor economy.
