Park up and take the Spalding Water Taxi to the Springfields Shopping Outlet which is a relaxing 30-minute cruise. There is a pub serving good food within one mile.
Please note that a Grey seal is entering the river Glen over the sea gates every few days, and has enjoyed the fish stocks within, although there is quite a significant amount left for the fishing sport.

Never rent a cottage with the owners next door. Packed and left after only 2 nights of a 4 night stay, as the owners took neighbourhood watch to a whole new level.The man of the house also came into the garden barking his trivial rules in a very aggressive manor . Absolutely no need. Left both me and my wife feeling really uncomfortable in the cottage hence we left.

This was a last minute booking for the three of us, and we could not of been happier with the accommodation, and location. The hospitality from the owners is second to none. Everything you could think of was available in the accommodation and the little welcoming treats were greatly received. We would definitely be looking to return next year to enjoy the peace and tranquility that Reflections has to offer.
