Property code: 88629

This property is a perfect hideaway on the fringes of the Lincolnshire Wolds, sympathetically restored to retain its old world charm and perfectly placed to explore the unspoilt countryside.

Located on the fringes of the Lincolnshire Wolds, this is the perfect hideaway for a small family or group of friends. Ideal for walks in the countryside and at the coast, it has a gorgeous garden where pets and their people can unwind, while a wood burner inside will warm paws and toes in winter.

Step through the spacious hallway - two steps down lead into a delightful lounge with a high vaulted ceiling and stunning views over Mill Stream. The light-filled adjacent dining area has waterside views and French doors lead to an outdoor seating and BBQ area, perfect for al fresco dining. On cooler evenings you can light the wood burner as you relax in front of the Smart TV, or cook up a feast in the country-style kitchen. A smart bathroom serves both the double and single bedrooms – the single bed incorporates an additional trundle bed which would comfortably accommodate a fourth guest if required. Outside, the garden is fully enclosed with decking overlooking the passing stream – keep a lookout for the resident kingfisher!

The village of Legbourne is just 3.5 miles from Louth, a bustling market town that’s popular with foodies, while for walkers, the Wolds are a top doggie destination, their rolling hills and hidden valleys full of footpaths and bridleways. Home to some of the greatest traditional seaside resorts in the country – come rain or shine, entertainment is never in short supply – the sheer length of the Lincolnshire coastline is great for walks and nature-watching too. Just 12 miles from your doorstep, Mablethorpe has a 2-mile golden beach well worth a visit; summer-season restrictions apply on the busiest section but stroll along the prom to the quieter areas at each end, and Fido can enjoy the sand and surf freely.

  • Sleeps 3+1
  • 2 bedrooms - 1 double and 1 full size single with trundle bed (Trundle bed available on request by prior arrangement with the owner for an additional charge for £40.00 payable to the owner)
  •  1 bathroom with shower over the bath and WC
  • Electric oven and gas hob, dishwasher, washing machine, microwave
  • Wood burner (first basket of logs provided)
  • Smart TV, Alexa
  • Further pets welcome by arrangement
  • Enclosed garden with decking, seating and BBQ
  • Private parking for 1 car
  • Pub and shop within 1 mile
  • May consider additional dogs by prior arrangement at the time of booking
  • Arrival: 15:00 onwards
  • Departure: before 10:00, unless otherwise stated in your arrival details
  • 2 dogs allowed. Dogs are charged at £20 each per full or part week
  • There is an Accidental Damage Deposit of £150 when booking at this property, however this may be waived for £20. We’ll provide more details about this when booking your holiday.

Wonderful peaceful place to stay in a super village location so close to village amenities with a short drive to the wonderful beaches. The Barn was an absolute delight and had everything that you require and very tastefully furnished. So relaxing sitting outside on the deck by the stream.

Far from the madding crowd, a spacious accommodation for 3 people. Wi-fi is not too fast, but adequate. Mattresses getting on bit, but otherwise very well equipped. Louth is a treasure just 10 min drive away. Great place for some peace and quiet.

Superb little barn with an abundance of wildlife around it. Surrounded by other properties but because of the trees, it felt private and very peaceful. Everything has been carefully planned by Amanda and includes hairdryer, Iron and mini ironing board. My hubby couldn't get the tv connected to the internet but there is a signal booster plug to the Read moreright of the lounge steps. Switch it off and blow on it and it fixed the issue!

Attractive property, very comfortable beds, very clean and great wi-fi reception. I would imagine it would be idyllic for a chill out week in the warmer months; unfortunately we were not lucky with the weather. Narrow entrance gate if you like us have a wide vehicle. A good place to stay if you enjoy walking. The local village shop is amazing.

The cottage is located in a lovely, friendly village. The pub is a stroll away. The nearby walks soon get you to open land for great dog walks. The dining area is a good place to sit and watch the wildlife by the Mill stream and our dog liked that area too. In the summer the patio would be well used.

We enjoyed our stay in this fabulous cottage on the stream - despite not seeing the kingfisher! It is very comfortable and well-equipped. A problem with the water pressure causing the heating to fail to come on one morning was speedily resolved by the owner. The location is good for coastal visits (Mablethorpe, Skegness, Chapel St Leonards all withRead more excellent beaches etc) walking, and trips to Louth and Lincoln. The local shop is very good and meals at the The Royal Oak recommended. Hide
