We had a great time at the property. Sofas very comfortable. Beautiful living room. Big and airy. This property has a courtyard. The kitchen has everything you need to prepare meals. Plenty of parking. In the countryside. We drove into Lincoln for the day. Both Newark and Southwell are very close by too. The barn really did exceed my expectations.

We had a wonderful stay at the Milling Shed (family of 5 adults and a baby). The property was perfect for us - absolutely nothing we would change. It was clean, spacious, and felt like a home from home. The interior and facilities were superb, as were the owners. The added bonus of a catering company nearby meant meals were easy with no need to spend massive amounts of time in the (well-appointed) kitchen. Would highly recommend and will definitely return.

Fabulous property! It really is luxurious - beautifully decorated, spotlessly clean and in gorgeous country surroundings. Equipped with everything we needed to feel at home during our week-long stay. Wonderful beds and bathrooms. The hosts are extremely kind and attentive. Would absolutely recommend!
