What our customers say about their holidays

  This is the first property we have used where we have not had to buy toilet rolls, washing up liquid, dishwasher tablets and condiments.

  We were welcomed with plumb cake, home made jam and butter. There was milk in the fridge. We could not find fault with anything in the cottage. It was like being home from home. Very comfortable and welcoming. We used the game room every day. The owner was available every day - she is a lovely person, very friendly and helpful. With all the living arrangements on ground level it was ideal for my mum who is 86 and she managed the 3 large steps down to the lounge and a bedroom with ease (I think it would work for a person in a wheelchair) The rooms are spacious. The village was quiet, friendly and peaceful, the children aged 10 and 12 could safely ride round the village. The local convenience store had the basics and the local pub had good food and was very reasonably priced. The coast is only 30 minutes away and there were plenty if other things to do and see in the surrounding area. We loved the cottage, would definitely use this as a base should we return to the area. We would highly recommend it.

  Balmedie was immaculately clean and very comfortable.

  Kitchen particularly well equiped, especially helpful in these days when we are more inclined to eat in than usual perhaps The two wings, with a couple of bedrooms in each maximises privacy for sharing households. Bathroom provision excellent. We explored the games room and although did not, in the end use it as we experienced excellent weather so out and about plenty and enjoying the pleasant patio area, it clearly would be a boon for poor weather or groups with youngsters. General surroundings so quiet, peaceful and private and the wider countryside very attractive with many places and attractions well within an hours drive. Hosts very friendly and helpful. Carol responded very promptly in sorting a minor problem we experienced and was particularly thoughtful and kind to the elder members of our group. All of our party expressed a strong desire to experience the pleasure of staying at Balmedie again.

  Our reported minor problems were resolved quickly by Steve, Thankyou.

  However be aware only one toilet in the house with bath and shower (albeit a lovely big one!). Also it's location downstairs is problematic during the night for youngsters and the less able bodied. Plenty of gadgets, games and gimmicks (incl sauna and hot tub). Good location on North end of Skegness. Be aware of adjacent main road noise for all bedrooms. Great Garden for children and pet dogs. Good WiFi and fabulous TV. However, more seating is required if more than 5 persons watching it. Be aware no clothes storage in main bedroom. Some drawers in second king-size bedroom, most storage in children's room where large wardrobe is situated. Great kitchen, great appliances and cooker. However we found on warm-hot days newly hatched flying bugs welcomed us home in the kitchen inside the patio door. Overall 4/5 for us.

  We absolutely loved the property.

  It had everything we could possibly need and more. Incredibly well equipped kitchen, very spacious bedrooms, super bathrooms and lots of outside space. The cottage was very warm. The property is situated in its own grounds so it’s very quiet and private. Many villages to visit close by and the coast is just a 25 minute drive away. The property would be very suitable for families with a great games room. As a group of ladles, the only thing which could have improved our stay would have been the option to have the double beds as single beds, link type beds. Hosts were very helpful and friendly both before and during our stay. Really can’t praise this property highly enough. Certainly the best cottage we have stayed in. We hope to visit again soon and have shared our ‘find’ with friends and family..

  Lovely property, it was tricky to find and access is via a one way street so if you miss it you have to go all the way round again.

  Kitchen was very well equipped, even had a Ninja air fryer. Outside space was lovely, hot tub and sauna both great. I would suggest taking a gazebo for the hot tub if the forecast is bad, then you can take full advantage. Property was lovely inside, just a few niggles; It wasn’t mentioned anywhere that there is a settee bed in the conservatory. There were only 6 dining room chairs, the table expanded to seat 8 (there were only 6 of us so maybe that’s why?). Only room for 5 to sit in lounge. No bedside tables in bedrooms (I like a lamp on one and somewhere to put my clock, book etc. I’m being very picky here and overall we loved the property and the owner was very helpful but it’s always worth giving a bit of feedback!
