It was perfectly located for all the pubs, shops and restaurants - our particular favourites being the Woodland Cafe and Petwood Hotel and gardens. The cottage is beautifully furnished and maintained and immaculately clean. It was a joy to stay there for our first time in Woodhall Spa.

Kitted out well, with perfect cleanliness and facilities. The rear garden was as described perfectly secure four our 2 little dogs. Lots to do in the area especially if you like walking. Several air museums commemorating the areas involvement in WW11. 10 minutes walk to the main shopping area. The cottage and area was so good that we have already re-booked for next year.
