Absolutely loved our break here. The lodge is amazing, looks great, very clean, very comfortable and has everything you need. There was a nice bottle of wine and sweet treats there to greet us which was a lovely touch. There's a lovely woodland walk and an enclosed play field for letting the dog have some free run around time. The place is so peaceful - we didn't want to leave. However, nearby Lincoln has lots to offer from shopping, culture, restaurants, pubs, busy bustling high street with lots going on. The Cathedral and Castle are fab if you like that sort of vibe. All in all a great place for a holiday or just a restful break from your everyday busy life. I would highly recommend Humphrey-Basil Lodge.

A fantastic place to just sit and enjoy the surroundings. The alpaca come right to the fence outside the lodge. There is a lovely woodland walk it was obviously a bit muddy due to the time of year but enjoyable anyway. The lodge has everything you could need and it was beautiful and clean. Beds were nice and comfortable and the rooms cosy and warm. The only problem we found was the dog field fencing was not secure for my moms inquisitive Shih Tzu which was a shame.
