excellent facilities, helpful owner.

We've just returned from a cosy, comfortable relaxing break at The Old Forge. Everything you could need is catered for and is of a high standard with the added bonus of overlooking a lovely garden. There are two local shops, two pubs, an amazing fish and chip shop and the station is just around the corner with direct links into Lincoln. You need nothing more! We will definitely be back when in this area again. Thank you David and Susan.

Cosy and well equipped cottage with everything you need and more. Great welcome-in pack and friendly owners on site. Bus stop, well-stocked mini supermarket, fish & chip shop, Chinese takeaway and railway station all o more than 2 minutes walk away. What more could you ask for!

Lovely, well equipped accommodation, very cosy with the woodburner alight. Ideally situated near shops, takeaways and the train station. Welcome Pack was well stocked, especially the delicious home made bread. The owner was very welcoming, popping over to make sure we'd settled in okay. We would definitely return if staying in the area.
