After dinner, retire to the sitting room, where you can relax and unwind in front of the Smart TV and keep up on your favourite shows even while away!
Step outside to the enclosed front garden, where you can enjoy the fresh air and tranquillity of your surroundings. The garden features a well-maintained lawn and a patio area complete with furniture, perfect for enjoying a morning coffee or that soothing glass of red.

Ideal for 2 people. Would recommend if you are looking for a quiet location yet only 5 minutes off a main road. Installing wifi would be good although mobile coverage (Vodafone and O2) were good. Property is generally well equipped although we did suggest a few things to the owner. Would certainly consider staying there again if we were looking for accommodation in the area. Wine, beer and fresh milk on arrival was a nice touch.

Bedroom is again a great space that allows easy movement. Bed itself has top quality mattress and bedding, both myself and wife slept really well and has added advantage of view through patio doors out across garden and surrounding farmland. Property is on a road (mainly tractors and locals taking short cuts). No windows on this side of âthe stableâ to really interfere with your stay. Owner lives next door at the farm and is very pleasant and approachable if needed. Overall will return as in a great spot to visit the Lincolnshire coast and also visit my daughter, so in law and family in Norfolk. Thank you

It was comfortable and warm and nice and light throughout. The kitchen appliances were very good and there were 2 good quality TV's too. The seating and bed were nice and comfortable. The bathroom did the job although to use the shower meant removing toilet rolls etc as the whole room gets wet. One of the main reasons for choosing this location was to accomodate our dog with the large garden being a big attraction. However we found that the garden isn't fully secure. The back of the garden is only fenced off from the adjacent field by a plastic mesh fence. This wasn't fitted properly and most of it wasn't at full height and our dog easily got over it and ended up in the field. This could have resulted in him getting onto the main road. After this incident we had to have him on a lead which wasn't what we wanted for him. A more sturdy and higher fence is required to make it secure. Also the gate and metal railings could do with mesh being fitted as any dog smaller than ours could have squeezed through, ours nearly did! If those small things were sorted it is a lovely garden for a dog to be in. The only other small things I would suggest would be wi-fi and a few more basic kitchen items such as oven trays and gloves. We did enjoy our stay and would consider coming again if we felt the garden was safe for our dog. The bottle of wine and can of beer was a nice welcome upon arrival.
