Emma
We had such a lovely stay at this cottage! The views of the open fields and the farm were absolutely stunning, really peaceful. The place was super comfy, with everything we needed for a relaxing break. The hot tub and jet bath were definitely highlights! There was plenty of space for the family, comfy sofas, big bedsand a lovely farmhouse table. Perfect location for exploring Lincoln and the surrounding villages. Highly recommend!
Emma
Kite Cottage feels surprisingly spacious yet super cosy. We were really impressed when we arrived - it’s bigger than expected and super well equipped, with hooks everywhere which is a nice touch! The kitchen has everything you'd needand the living area is really comfy with big sofas. The main bedroom is lovely, with a comfy bed and loads of wardrobe space. We also loved unwinding in the hot tub most evenings after days out exploring. Definitely a great find!
Oliver
Even though February weather was a bit grim most days, we genuinely enjoyed our stay! The cottage was spotlessly clean and cosyand the hot tub was definitely a favourite for all of us (2 adults, 2 kids). The hosts were super friendly and welcoming. Our kids loved meeting the animals - especially the new pony and the resident duck - and they had a great time collecting eggs from the chickens. It’s in a lovely rural spot, but just a short drive to the town and shops, making it a perfect base for exploring Lincolnshire!

We had a great time in a beautiful setting. Sarah and her husband made us feel so welcome, helpful and really informative. It was such a lovely surprise to find homemade lemon drizzle cake, fresh milk, tea, coffee and all the bits and bobs we needed for our self-catering break.

Rushmoor Country Park - GU10 1ET

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 18 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.

about 18 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.
