The city of Lincoln is home to a magnificent famous medieval Cathedral and Castle and also host to one of Europe’s largest Christmas markets. Nearby Louth is home to Cadwell Park the host of the British Superbike Championship; and the county throws a multitude of festivals and celebrations throughout the year. Why not visit and let us help you discover all that Lincolnshire has to offer. We are in the countryside on a farm so your own form of transport is essential. There is lots of room for vehicles and free parking outside. The tennis court is here for you to use - just a courtesy request to see if it is free. We have beach hut on our closest sandy beach which can be hired by guests. (£15 per day) This allows you somewhere to leave all your gear, have a cup of tea or simply sit outside on the promenade or grass behind the hut taking in the sea air!
