Two people who died following a fire at a caravan park have been named by police.
Lee Baker, 48, and his 10-year-old daughter Esme Baker, died at Golden Beach Holiday Park, in Ingoldmells, Skegness on Saturday.
They were from the Nottingham area and had been “excited to be spending the first weekend of the holidays together”, their family said in a tribute.
“We are all utterly devastated at what’s happened. This loss is incomprehensible at the moment,” they added.
Lincolnshire Police said it was still awaiting formal identification, which could take some time.
The police and fire service were called to the holiday park at about 03:50 BST on Saturday and said they were working together on the investigation to establish the cause of the blaze.
Senior investigating officer Det Insp Lee Nixon said the intensity of the fire had made the investigation “incredibly challenging”.
“We are working hard to validate the facts available to us to be able to provide answers for the family and loved ones of those who were very tragically taken by this fire,” he said.
Dan Moss, area manager for prevention and protection at Lincolnshire Fire and Rescue, said: “Our thoughts and deepest condolences are with the family at this time.
“Once investigations are complete, local fire crews and our community fire safety team will be on hand to talk to people in the area and address any fire safety concerns they may have, at what will be an upsetting time.”
