Overall, the property offers a relaxing and memorable stay with excellent attention to detail.
Cleanliness is consistently highlighted, with guests describing the cottage as spotless, immaculately cleaned, and well-maintained. Only one review mentions minor issues with some kitchenware, but this does not detract from the overwhelmingly positive feedback.

Boothby Cottage is more like a home than a holiday let. It has everything you need and more! It is in a very quiet area and on a clear night, the stars are amazing. We were very lucky to have had good weather so we had chance to sit out in the large garden where our dogs could roam free due to it being fully enclosed and secure. The welcome pack was appreciated. I'm normally ready for home at the end of the week, but I could happily have stayed an extra week here.

We had a wonderful stay, the cottage is beautiful and immaculately cleaned, and all of the rooms are to a high standard. We found the beds to be a little too firm, but that's a personal preference and I wouldn't mark them down for that. The flies were an issue, but that comes with having a property in the countryside, so again I'm not being critical. I would overall definitely recommend this place to people.

Our second visit. It’s a beautiful home with everything you could possibly need and really comfortable. Our dogs loved the garden. Nothing in the immediate vicinity so you have to travel to a shop or a pub but it means it’s a very quiet area. We had the best Sunday lunch at The Barley Mow in Friskney
