Take two canine companions to this delightful two-storey, Grade II-listed property in the quiet village of Belchford, ideal for couples, families or friends looking for a relaxing holiday in the countryside. The cottage is ideally located for exploring the southern reaches of the Lincolnshire Wolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Set tails wagging while walking a section of The Viking Way which passes by your door.

This beautiful 18th-century cottage retains gorgeous original features, such as exposed wooden beams and stone walls and combines them effortlessly with cosy contemporary comforts. The property has a traditional cottage feel where you feel a world away from your everyday life. The kitchen welcomes you into the property and has all you need to rustle up a brunch or delicious evening meal at the end of a day exploring. The dining room is a great space for planning a day of adventure with your pups and enjoying your evening meal. The comfortable sitting room offers a lovely wood burner, perfect for four paws on those chilly winter evenings while you enjoy watching a box set on the Smart TV. Completing the downstairs is the shower room. Upstairs are two double rooms, along with a family bathroom. Outside is an enclosed garden, with a pretty sitting area tucked away to enjoy peace and quiet.

The property is 18 miles from the sandy beach at Sutton on Sea, where your dog can go mutts and splash in the sea. History buffs can step back in time at historic Tattershall Castle (14 miles). Or take a picnic and let your hounds sniff out an adventure along the walking trail at Hubbard Hills (11.5 miles), where they can cool off in the stream on a hot day. ?

The cottage was perfect with all required provisions and off-road parking. Being very close, at the end of the adjacent lane, to the long distance Viking Way was ideal with the gently rolling hills of the Lincolnshire Wolds. Would recommend.

The cottage is adjacent to the viking way and is perfect for young and active people. Great pub and food opposite. Beautiful countryside within walking and driving distance. Not the ideal place for pensioners.

Lovely cottage in a really nice village....excellent food from the pub just across the road, which was very dog friendly. Lots of great walks activities and food destinations locally, even in late October. Lincolnshire Wolds are a hidden gem!

Lovely cosy cottage, welcome gifts, theres everything you need there, the sun shone through the lounge windows late afternoon which was a bonus. We made use of the shower room and the huge bathroom with corner bath, very relaxing after long walks. So many walks from the cottage door. Very quiet at night and we used the front bedroom.
