Cleanliness is repeatedly highlighted, with guests describing the property as spotless, impeccably clean, and well maintained. Daily servicing of the hot tub and regular cleaning visits are noted, with only the rare mention of minor maintenance issues (e.g., windows not opening) that were quickly addressed.
The location is praised for its beautiful rural setting, proximity to walking routes, and easy access to Lincoln, Louth, and local attractions. Guests appreciate the peaceful surroundings and central position for exploring the area. The only minor note is the need for a car to reach nearby towns.

We have just got home from a wonderful stay at Wagonner's Barn for my husband's 60th birthday celebrations with 14 other family members. We had the best time, the accommodation is supplied with absolutely everything you need to make the stay enjoyable and comfortable. The layout of the bedrooms suited us perfectly, impeccably clean throughout and lovely friendly hosts. A perfect stay and we will definitely be back again. Our guests particularly liked the hot tub and the games room.

It has been a wonderful week staying at the Waggoners barn.We were celebrating a family Golden anniversary, so age ranges were from 74 - 5. There was plenty of room for everyone. Family enjoyed using the games room, hot tub and outside areas to relax. It was a great base to explore the local areas.Lovely touch of fresh cake, tea & coffee on arrival.

We stayed as a party of thirteen with no children and we have had a wonderful time! We were greeted on arrival, the house had just been cleaned and was in excellent condition, with a bonus little tray of chocolates on the dining table. Cleaners are in every day to use the laundry facility, but they were all polite and called good morning to us whilst we had breakfast outdoors. In addition, the hot tub is serviced daily by a very pleasant gentleman, which keeps it clean and fresh.We were in a heatwave whilst we were staying, but the barn remained cool. By propping the doors open all the way from the stables double bedroom to the main room, you can get quite a significant breeze through, which keeps things fresh. Unfortunately, you can't do a huge amount about upstairs as, with an open stairway, it gets quite warm up there. Same with the games room; it gets the sun most of the day, which turns it into a bit of a greenhouse. This is only an issue in the height of summer of course.The kitchens are well furnished with appliances, utensils, and even a proper carton of milk on arrival (rather than little pots of UHT milk) with tea and coffee.The bedrooms aren't enormous, but they function perfectly for the house, as the main facility is the large communal spaces. We loved the multiple options to seat our large group for meals etc.The surrounding area is gorgeous. We only had to walk a short ways up into a field to have a beautiful view of the solar eclipse. There are also plenty of routes to take a hike into the Wolds, including to the nearby ice cream parlour, which is also fabulous.Overall, we had a wonderful stay and would recommend it to other large groups.
