Passenger statistics from the Office of Rail and Road

Havenhouse railway station is situated 3 miles (5 km) south-west of Skegness in Lincolnshire, England. The station was originally called 'Croft Bank'. There was formerly a Seacroft railway station between Havenhouse and Skegness, but it is now closed.

The station is now owned by Network Rail and managed by East Midlands Railway who provide all rail services. In 2018/19 it was the least used station in Lincolnshire and in the East Midlands and the fifth least used station in Great Britain.[1]

The station is unstaffed and offers limited facilities other than two shelters, bicycle storage, timetables and modern 'Help Points'. The full range of tickets for travel are purchased from the guard on the train at no extra cost; there are no retail facilities at this station.

As of December 2018, there are two daily services in both directions which run to Skegness and Nottingham via Boston and Grantham. There are no Sunday services.[2]
