Kelly
It was a really lovely stay. The cottage was well equipped and clean, and was in a good location. The hot tub was fab. The owners were friendly & had provided thoughtful little extras when we arrived which was a lovely surprise. Also my dog (who is a bit of a Houdini) didn't escape for the garden. One thing to be aware of is that some of the local Read morepubs open/serve food only Thursday-Sunday. So just plan for that if you're staying for the week and were planning to eat out some nights.

A fantastic little cottage with everything you need in there. The hot tub is a welcome treat every day! Really dog friendly, enclosed garden, even homemade organic dog biscuits when you arrive and a cake for the humans! Recommend Lincoln castle, Newark Aviation museum, Twigmoor Woods and Knaith Woods near Lea Park - all good for dogs. Everywhere isRead more at least a short drive away so keep that in mind. We went to Mablethorpe beach for the day which was absolutely fantastic! Recommend! Hide
Fran
A lovely cottage, in a lovely area. We found everything we needed. The hot tub wash superb, and the owners kept themselves to themselves, but on the one query we had, they couldnt have been more helpful. Throughly enjoyed our stay. There are plenty of walks around too and our dog also enjoyed the stay
Jamie
Gorgeous cottage with lovely scenic surroundings. The owners are the nicest people ever! They really can't do enough for you. Will definitely be looking at coming back.
Sally
We are very happy to recommend this cottage. Location is lovely and the facilities just as described. The owners are next door if anything were needed but they were never intrusive. On arrival there was a very thoughtful welcome "pack" including excellent local biscuits and cake. To say that the cottage is dog friendly would be an understatement as there were even home made dog biscuits which our pooch loved. The hot-tub was a boon after a long day's walking.
Amy
The cottage was lovely, everything was great! Could not fault it. It was a lovely warm and quaint home for us for a few days. The owners are very friendly and left lots of treats for us as well as our dog which was very thoughtful. The hot tub was an added bonus for us and topped off our break away. Would definitely keep this in mind for a future v isit to the area.
Jacqui
The cottage is lovely, all on one level and dog friendly. Dean and Kirstie the owners are conscientious hosts, nothing is a trouble. They are very aware it's your holiday. Would recommend to anyone.
Jacqueline
Fantastic cottage set in a beautiful location, hardly any road traffic so super quiet, perfect for relaxing. The owners are very nice and thoughtful (left us plenty of unexpected surprises, very much appreciated). Easy location to visit plenty of tourists spots. Would definitely recommend visiting too anyone who wants a break from everything.
Jill
What a fantastically beautiful cottage and wonderful host. Dean is exceptional in his care to ensure we had the best time. Location is perfect, quiet and rural, but with easy access to Lincoln and surrounding towns/villages. Jacuzzi is fabulous, as is the garden. The cottage is fully equipped and thoughtfully decorated, in keeping with its age. The dogs and our tortoise enjoyed their stay immensely. Cannot fault and we will definitely return. Thank you.
Lesley
Great little cottage, very comfortable and really nicely furnished and equipped. The hosts are a lovely friendly family who are there if you need them but not on top of you. They really spoil their guests with some very thoughtful complimentary goodies and they don't forget the four pawed guests either. Highly recommend for a cosy break.
Nick
Brilliant property
Harri
A cosy, quaint cottage in the heart of the peaceful Lincolnshire countryside. Dean welcomed us on our arrival and was extremely friendly (as was his dog Suki who loved playing with our lab), so this was a great start to the holiday. The hot tub was perfect, & the kitchen had all the amenities you would need for a little break. Everything was perfec tly clean & although Dean was available should we require him, it felt very secluded and private which we loved. We didn't want to leave! Thank you!
Gemma
Hawthorn escape is a lovely property to stay in. From the complimentary food items (and homemade dog treats) to the really comfy bed, Dean and Kirstie made us feel so welcome and had considered every comfort for a perfect stay. The hot tub is an added bonus. The surroundings are peaceful and quiet The footpath by the garden is perfect for a walk wi th the dog (we saw a Barn Owl during the day). Hawthorn escape is a great base to explore parts of Lincoln. Lincoln cathedral is dog friendly too!
Denise

This little Gem is perfect is you love a remote, quiet, dog walking location. There is just piece and quiet and nothing else. Perfect for a weekend of walking and relaxing.
Tracey
Lovely quite area Walking from the door step Lots of great places to walk only short drive away
Zoe
This is such a lovely cottage with the most comfortable bed & the hot tub was wonderful. It would have been easier if there was a door straight in to the garden for the dogs rather than having to take them round the corner. The added extras were a lovely touch & it was in a good position for exploring. We came home feeling refreshed & happy.
Trevor

Amazing cottage, amazing hosts, amazing location. We and our dogs had a wonderful time. Nothing was too much trouble for our hosts and the cottage was well equipped and beautiful inside. Set in an amazing area with loads of lovely walks. Twigmoor woods a personal favourite. The hot tub was fantastic and easy to operate. Nice personal touches with P rosecco and some cake on arrival. We will definitely be looking to stay again. Oh, make sure you go to Blyton ice cream parlour in Blyton!

A lovely cottage with lots of home comforts, upon arrival Dean and Kirstie had left us a lovely chocolate cake, with a bottle of Prosecco and a bag of home made dog biscuits ( our dog loved them ) . Out the back of the cottage is a footpath which is good for dog walking, Owlet and twigmoor woods are very close and worth a visit for dog walking, we enjoyed our evenings relaxing in the hot tub.
