Leanne - Verified booking

This is a lovely cottage, there are good aspects of it, some excellent but also some not so good.

It is beautiful to look at, well positioned and in a great location. Everything we needed was close by. Like another review, we also had difficulty getting in when we arrived and as it was raining hard it was annoying. The key safe box is really stiff and trying to get the gate open was awkward only to realise the lock doesn't catch so it wasn't locked anyway! The rooms are well laid out, the kitchen is extremely well equipped, lovely big fridge, big enough freezer. T-towels, dishwasher tablets, washing up liquid the list of what is provided for goes on. And the welcome box was a lovely bonus. Lounge was great, very relaxing, cozy with two dogs but other than sit and watch TV with a cuppa or G&T what else do you need. We found the house a bit chilly and felt damp on arrival but maybe had been empty previous to us being there, put the heating on and warmed up eventually. Upstairs, lovely big bedroom (we didn't use the other one), bed really comfy. We couldn't get the TV to work upstairs as there wasn't a signal which was a bit odd. There were a couple of not so good bits, the bathroom tiles were a bit grim with black mould in the grouting, you can actually see it in the photos but don't realise until you get in the shower. The bathroom blind broke and had to stay down for our stay. The most disappointing bit is the outside, the enclosed garden is just the courtyard, we had expected as it was dog friendly that we would have a grass area where we could let the dogs into and as ours won't "go" on the patio we had to take them out on leads to the front for their toilets. I should have realised when I read the listing so I take responsibility for this but just offering as a warning to others if they have fussy dogs. I didn't like the view from the courtyard which is of a rough old bit of land looking at a run down building with broken windows, a higher fence or something would take the edge of that eyesore.

Unfortunately we do not recommend a stay at Appletree Cottage.

The main reason for this is the beds. The double bed has a foam mattress. Only this is so sturdy that it literally feels like you're lying on a board. We therefore moved to the other bedroom halfway through the first night. However, the mattresses in this room are not much better. High in the middle because of the springs, only a few centimeters thick on the sides. So every time you turn over you practically roll out of bed. As a result, you don't really get a good night's sleep. The cottage itself has been refurbished and decorated with much love and attention. Yet you notice that the owner himself has never camped there for a week, because there are quite a few points that could be improved. â¢ There is a smart TV in the living room, but it will not connect to the WiFi in any way. So watching Netflix is not an option. â¢ The central heating is off in the summer. But that also means that the towel rail in the bathroom is off, so towels don't dry and you have to dry off with wet towels. â¢ There are not enough plates, so you actually have to run the dishwasher every day because you keep getting wrong, especially on plates. The cylinder of the front door is loose and the closing mechanism of the front door does not feel very reliable.

Enjoyed our stay at the old Rectory, decorated to a high standard and in a great location.

It took a short while to work out how to get in (through the gate and two locks on the kitchen door) and when it snowed/rained it was a bit squelchy underfoot near the gate. Large comfortable sofas, just a tad too low for our old knees! Bed very comfortable indeed and the shower worked very well. Constantly having to straighten the lounge rug under the coffee table, it wrinkled at the slightest movement. The welcome box had some great things in it, much appreciated. The heating worked very well with a Nest thermostat in the kitchen which mostly tracked our needs. We mostly ate out but cooked a little on the very large complicated range which we never found the instructions for but managed to work out. The wifi was mostly reliable although we noticed it restarted a couple of times during our stay. The cottage yard was very dog friendly and no doubt is a lovely suntrap in the summer months.

We had a delightful stay over Easter at this charming cottage.

It exceeded our expectations, starting with a well-equipped kitchen, to the very comfortable beds. The interior was stylishly decorated, blending modern with rustic charm. The courtyard garden is more spacious than photos suggest and became our private suntrap. The location is ideal. Nestled on the village green next to the church. And we were only a 2-minute walk from a very friendly local pub where we enjoyed some great meals and even took part in the quiz night. Accessibility to Lincoln was easy. We walked along the river, and the surrounding area offered plenty of walking routes, including a trip to Mablethorpe and Skegness. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a peaceful retreat with easy access to local attractions and nature.

My stay at The Dairy was everything I had hoped it would be.

The hosts of this small, family run business were so welcoming and friendly, and the property itself was exactly as shown in the photos......characterful and pretty, spotlessly clean, and very comfortable, with the addition of a lovely, secure patio area that was dog safe too.There were thoughtful additions of milk, a bottle of wine, a bowl of fruit and some tasty bakes, and the property was was fitted out with all anyone could need for either a short or long stay. Set on the edge of a tiny village, but by no means remote, i found it a perfect place to stay and to relax, and I'll definitey be returning. I would highly recommend the Dairy to anyone looking for a peaceful and comfortable base for visiting the area.
