The cottage is really lovely, with stunning views and a perfect spot near both the coast and the countryside. It comfortably fits six of us and is super well-equipped. The host checked in regularly to make sure we had everything we needed, which was great!

We had a fantastic week at this charming cottage with four adults, two kidsand our little French bulldog. Plenty of great spots nearby, especially loved Huttoft beach and Tattershall Castle. Definitely recommend it!

James
We had a lovely stay at this cosy cottage. The layout is really well thought out, making it feel spacious yet homely. The owners stopped by on our first day to check everything was okay, which was a nice little gesture. It's set on a farm, but there’s plenty of secure space around the cottage for our dogs and kids-perfect for peace of mind. We loved walking across the fields and exploring the public footpaths that cross the farm. Our dogs had a blast every dayand we’d definitely come back!
James
Love how peaceful it is, perfect for a dog-friendly getaway no matter the weather. Honestly, we didn't want to leave!

The cottage was just what we hoped for and more. Paul and Barbara made us feel so welcome throughout our stay!
Emma
We had a lovely stay at this place! The property was spotless and really well stocked with essentials like hand soap and dishwasher tablets. The welcome pack was a nice touch and very much appreciated. Cooper loved the secure gardenand there were loads of walks right from the door. Big thanks to Paul for sorting our food delivery - we’re definitely coming back soon!
Jamie
We had a lovely stay at The Stables. It's super cosy and perfect for families with kids and grandparents. There’s tons of space and everything’s really well thought out - we found all the essentials easily. The toys, especially the big dominoes, kept the kids entertained for ages, even turning them into car tracks! The location is a bit of a trek, but the peace and quiet more than make up for it. Thanks for the welcome pack, it was a nice touch. A hot tub would be the cherry on top!
David
We really enjoyed our stay here. The location was perfect for exploringand walking around the nearby area was quite peaceful, even if a bit muddy! The place was spotless, nicely decoratedand that welcome pack was a lovely touch. Cheers!
Emma
The cottage felt really cosy and roomy. The kids loved the fire pit for marshmallows and the enclosed garden was great for the dog to explore freely.

We love this place! It's a great location for walking, cycling or driving out to explore the stunning county of Lincolnshire. Perfect for a little adventure!
Sarah
What a lovely cottage! It was clean and spacious, perfect for us. There were nice walks everywhereand it was such a peaceful and relaxing holiday. Our dog really enjoyed seeing the cows in the field across the way every morning too. We definitely recommend it!
Mark
We stayed in a beautifully converted farm building set in a lovely, quiet spot. There are plenty of rights of way nearbyand we could also explore the fields of the owner's family farm. It’s incredibly dog friendly, with special flooring from Floors for Paws. We booked last minute after our original cottage was cancelled just 24 hours before. Paul, the owner of The Stables, was super quick to respond, gave us a discountand sent over all the details about the cottage and the area right after we booked.
Sarah
We found the accommodation super spacious and the woodburner added a lovely cosy touch. It's just right for small family groups with dogs. The courtyard off the bedroom was a nice bonus too. There's a fenced grass area out front, which the kids loved using the firepit in. We enjoyed the many public footpaths to explore and Rigsby Woods was lovely. For shopping, there's a co-op in Alford. We weren't quite sure what to pack, but they provided tea towels, hand soapand washing up liquid, plus some foil, clingfilm, a delicious plum cakeand milk on arrival (just no tea or coffee).!
Emily
Absolutely beautiful and spotless place set in a stunning landscape! It felt warm and really like a home-from-home. Can’t wait to book again!
Jamie
We received a really comprehensive information pack before our tripand it was super useful! The welcome we got was lovely. The property was spotless, very spaciousand having the log burner made Christmas so cosy at The Stables. We would absolutely recommend it.
Sarah
We had a lovely weekend stay at The Stables, ideal for unwinding and relaxing. There were plenty of dog walksand the owners were attentive and friendly. We would definitely recommend it; just wish we’d had a bit longer there!
