"We had a lovely time."
The cottage is very homely and being just four of us, we used the main kitchen/ lounge room during our stay, rather than the separate spacious lounge. The bathrooms were well-appointed. This would be ideal for families with children/teens as the games room looked great, as did the lovely garden with two seating areas.
thank you for your feedback, it really is appreciated. Ian and Ali Property Owner

"Fantastic property."
Loads of room for just two of us, but you could equally make it cosy with the well thought out lighting. Some places we visit are sufficient for a weekend, this house we could happily have lived in. Garden was secure for my little dogs and they enjoyed exploring. Would 100% look to return if in the area again.
thank you for your review, so pleased you enjoyed your stay and hope to see you again. Ian & Ali Property Owner

"My sister and I had a lovely stay."
The property was beautifully equipped and very comfortable and cosy. We both slept very well. The garden was also very pleasant to sit out in. The location was perfect for us and our visits around Lincolnshire. Would highly recommend.

"We have had a fantastic stay at Holt House."
On arrival there was a birthday card and fresh flowers from Ian and Ali as I had said we would be celebrating my 60th birthday at the weekend. There was also a welcome hamper which we all loved and the tea/coffee pots were full. We had plenty of room for a family of 6 adults 2 children and a dog to have comfy seats to rest on. We all loved the games room and beautiful garden with garden furniture to relax on. The bedrooms were beautifully decorated and we had ample towels for baths/showers. The very big kitchen had every pot/pan and utensil we could have thought of. Everything was immaculately clean and was typical of a country cottage theme. We would highly recommend a stay in this beautiful part of the country. There are plenty of places to visit on days out close to Holt House. We played golf, had a trip into Lincoln and the beautiful Belton House owned by the national trust. Items such as washing up liquid, tea towels, tinfoil, kitchen roll were all provided. Holt House is a beautiful place to stay and we would thoroughly recommend it.
Hi thankyou so much for the wonderful feedback ,so pleased you all had a great time ,and a fabulous 60th birthday. xxx Property Owner

"What a wonderful cottage."
Much bigger than expected. Flawless. This is an example of how a holiday cottage should always be. Feels very homely and easy to forget you're not at home. We ended up spending more time than expected in the house. If you're reading this feedback then you are already on the fence for booking. Let me help you by pushing you into the right direction. Book it!! There is a pool table and games room. To the owners, thank you. We look forward to booking again in the future.
Hi Daniel, thankyou for such a lovely review, so pleased you enjoyed your stay look forward to welcoming you all again xx Property Owner

"What a beautiful property."
Fantastic for families who love to cook as the kitchen couldn’t be better stocked with good quality cookware. The property is very clean and comfortable. Plenty of places to visit with in an hour and the local villages are beautiful. We will definitely be back. The hosts were also really helpful when we had car trouble sending contact details for a trusted garage locally too. Thank you Ian and Ali for a lovely week.
Thank you for your kind words, and Thank you and your family for leaving the cottage in such lovely condition, so pleased you enjoyed your stay. Ali & Ian Property Owner

"We were very happy with our stay."
Comfortable, clean, everything we needed for our stay. The games room is fantastic. The photos don’t really do justice to the cottage, as all the rooms look larger in real life. The garden and summerhouse are also lovely.
Thank for your feed back and lovely comments, we are pleased you enjoyed your stay and would consider booking again it really means a lot to us. thank you. Ali & Ian Carrotte Property Owner

"We had a lovely stay at Holt House, it is a lovely cottage, very clean, well equipped and very comfortable with nice country views."
The games room was a nice addition. Our dog loved the garden which is fully enclosed and a good size. We would definitely recommend the cottage and hope to stay in the cottage again when we are back in the area.
Thank you, so pleased you (and the dog) enjoyed your stay and were happy with everything. being new to this it means a lot to us. thanks again. Ian & Ali Property Owner
