  • Newly refurbished in 2019 this country cottage is stylish, warm, and inviting

Property code: OC-77637

This charming property, surrounded by open countryside, sleeps four guests and one medium-sized pup or two small canine friends. You’ll have access to footpaths and bridleways from the cottage so you can enjoy a relaxing stroll with the hound before breakfast. As well as the Lincolnshire Wolds at your fingertips (and pawtips), you can also hop in the car and head to the coast, just 10 miles away, where you’ll find long stretches of golden sand.

Located on a working farm, this homely cottage has a fabulous country-style kitchen/diner, where you can gather for a hearty meal after a day of exploring. After dinner, snuggle up in the cosy lounge with Fido curled at your feet, and chat over a glass of wine or relax in front of the TV. Outside, you can enjoy al fresco dining on the picnic bench and marvel at the vast array of local wildlife. There is an unfenced lawn surrounding the property, where your four-legged pal can stretch their legs, and you’re also welcome to walk in the owner’s fields (see Need to Know for details).

The Lincolnshire Wolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty offers some of the most beautiful, unspoilt scenery in the region. Join the Lincs Wold Way in Louth, 13 miles away. The 76-mile circular route winds through rolling hills and hidden valleys and is broken down into manageable day-long segments. At the coast, the family-friendly resort of Chapel St Leonards makes a great day out (10.5 miles away). The beach stretches for miles, with only a small dog restriction in summer, and there are some delightful woof-friendly eateries. Alternatively, the rural beach at Moggs Eye (9.5 miles away) is also great for four-legged friends; they can charge around in the dunes and play on the wide strip of golden sand.

  • The property is situated on a working farm, whilst it is peaceful, some tractor noise will be heard during the harvest months, (late August to mid September and occasionally at other times, rarely before 9am and hardly after 10.30pm). Depending on the harvest there may be a need to run a grain dryer fan which can be noisy, however this is a reasonable distance from the cottage and should have no impact on your stay.
  • To allow the farm crops to establish, occasionally there will be bird scarers in use, typically this will be in late autumn and the spring. The bird scares are not located near the cottage but maybe audible when walking, they do not go off at night. They are blue and orange an located on the edge of a field.
  • Guests are very welcome to walk both the public footpaths and on our field margins. Dog mess must be cleared up within the grass land where the cattle graze (to prevent Neospora canium). While on the rest of the farmland please clean up after your dog if on the footpaths but otherwise your dogs are welcome to enjoy the freedom of the countryside. The owner has a dog and there may be other dogs waking on the public footpaths
  • During early Spring the cattle will not be used to humans and it maybe advisable not to walk in the cattle fields with young children

We enjoyed our stay at this lovely cottage which was very well equipped & had a good feel to it. The road the cottage was on was very quiet. Information provided before our stay was spot on & we followed one of the local walks. Easy access to the coast which took about 15 mins. Already thinking of booking again for later in the year

Lovely rural retreat, with only the sound of the owls and the rustle of trees. A quarter of an hour from several amazing dog-friendly beaches, nature walks like Gibraltar Point and visitor attractions including Gunby Hall and the market town of Louth. And the hosts are welcoming and friendly, too.

We were close enough to Alford for a food shop etc, not too far from Mablethorpe/Trusthorpe or Louth, but away in the peace and quite ( we are used to the tractors etc) The cottage is ideal for a couple or small family it would sleep 4 comfortably, there was onRead morely 2 of us plus our dog. Great to have walks on the doorstep, plenty of public footpaths. Would definitely use again. Hide

We had a wonderful stay in Owl cottage. The cottage was perfectly beautiful, great quiet location and had a small enclosed front garden for the dog.

This is a lovely cottage which suited our needs perfectly and is spotlessly clean. It has the best view from the master bedroom of any cottage we've stayed in; a beautiful view across the Wolds. We really appreciated the proper secluded garden with real flowers and lawn, and the wildflowers left to grow nearby. It is very well located for trips to Read morelocal places of interest.
