A privilege to stay in such a beautiful and tranquil setting with amazing history attached to it. Lion Gate Lodge is perfect it’s warm and cosy, so well equipped with every attention to detail to make your stay so pleasurable.To wake up in a morning to see deer roaming ,squirrels scampering what more could you want.In today’s crazy world this really is the perfect place to unwind and recharge your batteries ,and discover what a very special County Lincolnshire is. Lion Gate Lodge is a short drive away from Horncastle the Counties Antiques Capital, the unspoilt Market Town of Louth ,Woodhall Spa war time home of Guy Gibson and the 617 Dambuster Squadron, RAF Coningsby with the Battle of Britain Memorial Flight ,Boston and it’s rich history Guildhall Museum and its cells where the Pilgrim Father’s were imprisoned, and it’s magnificent Parish Church of St Botolph’s .Drive a little further to Lincoln and visit Bomber Command Memorial ,so much to see and do or simply relax and follow some of the walks with information provided.Our thanks to Gail for going the extra mile to make our stay so memorable ,yes we will definitely return!.
