Property code: 92252

Hugging the edge of the Lincolnshire Wolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, this classic country cottage with homely decor and wooden furnishings offers the perfect base for a canine and their small family of humans, seeking a quiet, rural break. You’ll have the coast, an array of nature reserves and quaint villages surrounding you to explore in the day, before kicking back for a movie night in the lounge.

Towel down Fido’s sandy paws in the porch and put the kettle on in the country-style kitchen/diner with wooden cabinets and views out the garden through the wide window. Serve up some home-cooked delights at the dining table before moving into the lounge. This neutral-toned space is just the right size for your hound to stretch their legs and curl up by your feet while you settle in for a game night on the sofas. Also on the ground floor is a convenient utility room/WC. Upstairs you’ll find a family bathroom, a double room and a twin. Outside is an enclosed, lawned garden with furniture.

Wander into the surrounding hills and fields by following the network of footpaths, bridleways and lanes from your doorstep. Lead the way to adventure in the Rigsby Wood – Lincolnshire Wildlife Trust nature reserve (1 mile), or why not visit the nearby garden centre (3 miles). Pack a picnic and enjoy a day out in the Lincolnshire Wolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty to find the South Ormsby Estate country park (6 miles) and Walmsgate Medieval Village (7 miles). Spend a day by the sea on the dune-backed sandy Huttoft Beach (9 miles) – which is dog-friendly all year round.

When we walked into Pheasant Cottage it was lovely & warm which made it feel very welcoming & cosy on a cold March day. It was spotlessly clean, the kitchen was well equipped with everything we needed for cooking, the lounge was lovely & comfortable, and the beds were really comfortable. Such a beautiful setting & it was so peaceful. It was a fabulRead moreous base for our daily trips out. Thanks to Barbara & Pluto (the labrador) for popping over when we arrived and also for our lovely Welcome Pack. Hide
