This cottage is beautifully situated in a very rural and quiet location. It is well set up and is very comfortable. Gainsborough is in easy reach and there are lots of public footpaths in the area to walk. There are lovely big skies and vistas to enjoy. The hosts were helpful and very supportive.

Gavin

A wonderful little cottage. Well designed for two people and our dog. We actually liked the alleyway down to the main garden as it meant we could let him out for a quick wee at night, without having to go round the back. There were some lovely little homely touches- a bottle of Prosecco, some cake and home made doggy biscuits which our dog devouredRead more. A great location, lots to do locally and of course, it was great to finish off the day in the hot tub. Hide

It was a really lovely stay. The cottage was well equipped and clean, and was in a good location. The hot tub was fab.

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
