Holly Cottage Reviews

Christopher
Communication with owners was excellent. Cottage welcoming for our multi generational family. Everything we needed had been thought of. Highly recommend by all of us.
Donnette
Beautiful property fully equipped and comfortable. Outside space is an absolute delight as are the hosts. Friendly and helpful. The children in our party loved the animals close by and the adults enjoyed chilling in the sunshine in the wonderful gardens. Hot tub was used frequently and cleaned daily by our hosts
Rosemary
Good clear instructions and welcome from host's partner. delightfully kind host allowed the children to feed his pet alpacas unbelievable!
Shelagh
We had a great stay at Holly Cottage. We were welcomed by Host Tony. The cottage was lovely. It had everything we needed and was very comfortable.A couple more chairs in the cosy living room wouldve come in handy when we were relaxing in the evening. Tony keeps sheep, ducks,alpacas and two young highland cows. He let us,and the children feed all the animals. This was a big plus. The children used to look out for him coming each morning. There are high ropes, zip wires archery and mini golf not too far away, which our family really enjoyed. The Williams family

Rushmoor Country Park - GU10 1ET
about 17 Miles
Located in Louth in Lincolnshire this is an ideal attraction when you want to get out in the fresh air and explore. There are many animals to see including ponies and piglets which the little ones love.  There are also some amazing birds from hawks and falcons to owls.  Most aspects of this attraction are included in the admission cost and as well as wandering around you get to hold and feed the animals too.  A real highlight are the micro pigs which are just like real pigs but in miniature.  Fully grown they are around the size of a spaniel!  If you get hungry then you can take your own picnic to the picnic areas or head for the tea room selling delicious food and children's meals too.
Pleasure Island - DN35 0PL
about 20 Miles
Wow this is an amazing family theme park and you will probably need the full day to experience it all.  From thrilling rides to family shows, kids of all ages are catered for.  Some of the most popular rides include the Obliterator and The Pendulus, not forgetting the Hypoblaster.   Family shows are entertaining such as the African Acrobat Show which is back by popular demand.  Entrance tickets are good value and if you book online you will receive a discount. To save even more money if you live locally or are visiting the area for a few weeks you could buy a season ticket for around £50 which will allow you entry for the whole season.
The Jungle Zoo - NR31 9EY
about 21 Miles
Centred around a Tropical House in an amazing jungle like setting this is a really unique attraction that will appeal to families.  In the Cleethorpes area of Lincolnshire it's easy to get to and offers a fun yet educational experience.  Referred to as the number one attraction in the area highlights include capuchin monkeys, meerkats, ring tailed lemur and for the children African pygmy goats.  The tropical house features Red Eared and other Terrapins from North America and goldfish amongst other things.  We think The Jungle Zoo represents excellent value for money too.  We recommend a whole day to explore this attraction and ensure you get to see all of the animals resident there.
Normanby Hall Country Park - DN15 9HU

Normanby Hall Country Park has a fantastically tranquil location Set in the 300 acres of Normanby Hall estate offering a relaxing choice for a family day out.
