Set down a long private driveway in the Lincolnshire countryside, this impressive limestone home is a wonderful spot for a holiday with your pets. Sleeping eight guests and surrounded by pretty scenery, it’s an excellent choice for families or groups of friends travelling with fresh-air-loving dogs. Nearby, the village of Corby Glen (2 miles) has shops, a dog-friendly tea room and a pub stop, while Grantham (12 miles) offers a wider range of shops and amenities.
Inside this single-storey home, there’s ample room to settle in after long walks, along with a boot room for leaving wellies and sorting out muddy paws. The spacious entrance hall leads into a bright open-plan living area where bi-fold doors frame far-reaching countryside views.
