The cottage was fantastic suited us all very well. It's got to be the cleanest place I've stayed some others could take a lesson. Treats left were a very nice touch. Keep up the good work.

The house was spotlessly clean, with everything we needed to enjoy our stay. We loved having our breakfast and the odd evening drink in the cute little rear yard, right next to Ellis Mill which is worth a visit in its own right. There are plenty of shops within a very short walk, including a well-stocked Co-Op. As for pubs and restaurants, there are so many great venues, again within easy walking distance. We'd give a special mention to the Plough Boy pub just around the corner, run by the lovely Megan who became a real friend of the family during our week's holiday! Highly recommend this property if you're planning a trip to Lincoln, which I'd also recommend as it's well worth a visit.
