Our reason for visiting Lincolnshire was to get our dog away from the fireworks and The Lodgings was perfect! The accommodation was welcoming and very comfortable with a lovely large lounge and 2 large bedrooms. I would highly recommend. We also found a very nice traditional pub called The Waggon and Horses which is literally 5 minutes in the car aRead morend well worth a visit. Hide

Well equipped with very comfortable beds. Close enough to the coast and rural walks. A pub just a mile or so down the road that served great food. A little further afield was the Splash which is a lovely pub suitable for families and is pet friendly.

Lovely location with spacious and very comfortable accommodation. Well equipped with everything we needed and more, plus a thoughtful welcome tray! New outdoor table and chairs on the enclosed garden area which is a real sun trap. Ideal location for exploring the Wolds and seaside areas plus plenty of local pubs. Lincoln under an hour away and LoutRead moreh close by. Next time we'll need a longer stay as there are plenty more places to explore. Thank you Nick & Nicola. Hide
