Property code: OC-L33070

Set within a peaceful working farm, this five-bedroom home is the ideal countryside escape for families, groups and their loyal hounds. There’s plenty to keep everyone entertained, from wild swims and trout fishing right on-site to scenic walks through open fields where your four-pawed pals can stretch their legs.

Enter through the door and into the heart of the home – a spacious open-plan kitchen/diner where a beautiful feature fireplace sets a welcoming tone. Gather around the large table for hearty breakfasts or group suppers after days of exploration. The lounge is wonderfully inviting, with two plush sofas, armchairs, a wood burner and a Smart TV for curling up while your furry friend basks in the warmth of the fire. Upstairs, five light-filled bedrooms offer restful retreats with countryside or garden views: three king-size rooms, a flexible twin room (which can be converted into a double), and a cheerful bunk room for children. A luxuriously finished family bathroom with a free-standing bath and a separate shower room round off the interior layout. Outside, the large, mature enclosed garden is perfect for both two-legged and four-legged guests to play and unwind. Savour a BBQ on the patio, spot local wildlife from the lawn, or simply relax as your canine companion snuffles about safely. There’s ample parking for four cars (shared driveway with farm machinery).

Adventure is never far away. Step back in time at the 13th-century Bolingbroke Castle (2 miles), where dogs on the lead can join you in roaming the sprawling grounds. History hounds will enjoy a day out at the Lincolnshire Aviation Heritage Centre (2 miles), where tail-waggers are welcome to join you throughout the museum. When you fancy a seaside stroll, head 15 miles to Skegness (seasonal dog restrictions) or 17 miles to Chapel St Leonards (dog friendly year-round) for sandy paws, sea air and a classic cone of ice cream.

We all agreed that Laythorpe House was the perfect place to stay for our family weekend getaway. Every room felt very homely and it is clear that the owners have put a lot of thought and effort into the renovation of the property. Everything has been finished to a very high standard with the highlight, in my opinion, being the vast kitchen/diningRead more area!! There are amazing showers with plenty of hot water for everyone and, despite being a big farmhouse, it never felt cold or uninviting. One reason for choosing Laythorpe was the option to bring our two dogs. The house is equipped with a boot room which houses two large cages and dog bowls, as well as a very large garden that is completely enclosed with wooden fencing and chicken wire. As the house is set back from the main road, down the farm drive, it was quiet and peaceful. Even when there was a local shoot going on the owners messaged to let us know. During our stay the owners were quick to respond with any queries and I particularly liked the fact that an information pack was sent digitally prior to our stay. We were able to have all the information we needed rather than waiting until our arrival. Overall we had a wonderful weekend at Laythorpe, and I would highly recommend this property to anyone wanting a relaxing getaway. Hide
