"A wonderful stay at this immaculate cottage."
Everything provided for a comfortable week. The garden was equally as good.A lovely quiet, peaceful place to sit in the evening with a small 'refreshment' watching the sunset. Geoff and Marian were superb hosts. Always around if needed but unobtrusive. Highly recommended.

"We really enjoyed our stay at Garden Cottage."
It is a very cosy and comfortable cottage in a beautiful garden setting. Our hosts were extremely helpful and accommodating. They supplied us with copious amounts of firewood for the wood burner and assisted us with all the usual things like waste bins and the use of the automatic gate on the driveway. Although we stayed in January when the weather was rather inclement, it was a very relaxing holiday and there was plenty to see and do in this part of Lincolnshire. We will definitely consider coming again.

"Lovely setting in a large garden."
Very comfortable accommodation with all appliances needed for a weeks stay. Jeff and Marian were very helpful without being intrusive. Our only concern was in the wet room, as I have slightly limited mobility I would have liked a couple of hand holds in the shower although the floor was non slip, I would have felt more confidence with something to “hang on too”. Another shelf, or some sort small storage in sink area would be helpful. David & Pamela June 23

"The cottage was very nice ,very clean the bed was quite comfortable, but the weather was absolutely red hot & so was the cottage ,but this was not the owners fault however the use of a fan would have been helpful, but appreciate not everything can be supplied we only used this as a base as we were out very early everyday, the wet room was also quite difficult to clean after a shower as we found the scraper supplied not really helpful at getting rid of the surplus water afterwards but apart from that we had a lovely holiday so thank you ☺️."

"We had a lovely week here."
The cottage is very comfy and has everything you could possibly need and was spotless. The hosts Geoff and Marion were very welcoming, friendly and informative. The welcome pack was very much appreciated. Great places to visit nearby. Location is great as only a short distance from Spilsby centre with lovely pubs and all the necessities. We'll definitely be back in spring/summer as the garden and pond were lovely and ideal for sitting out and watching the wildlife.

"A very pleasant stay in a lovely cottage - as I mentioned to Marian, the owner, the lack of cleaning materials was unusual, but maybe that's just me!"

"What an oasis of a garden."
A really lovely spot to sit and relax. The hosts have done the garden proud with lots of wild birds visiting the pond. As the bungalow is well maintained and stocked with everything you would need and she has taken into account P.P.I. (investment in people) Good luck to them in the future. The owners are friendly, informative but not intrusive. The weather could have been better for us but that is what it is. The surrounding area more than made up for it. All in all the holiday was enjoyable and found the location home from home which is what we need at our age (70's). Thank you to the hosts.
-

"It was a pleasure to stay at Garden Cottage, it was so comfortable and welcoming just what you needed after exploring the lovely area of "The Lincolnshire Wold", also the garden was beautifully laid out and loved sitting around the pool admiring the lovely flower beds."

"The property is in a good location to explore the Lincolnshire Wolds."
The owners were very friendly and welcoming. They had a good local knowledge and made helpful suggestions regarding places nearby to visit. Sadly with covid some of the attractions we wanted to visit were not open, but we still found plenty to do. The cottage is comfortable and cosy, especially once you get the log burner going, which we did each night of our stay and we were toasty. The wet room has a fabulous rain shower. The owners garden is lovely but the weather did not allow us to appreciate it. Very peaceful location.

"The owners were very friendly & welcoming, nice property."
The beds were really comfortable & the wet room was ideal for our needs. The soft seating was slightly low for us but that’s our fault as we have creeky legs. The location of the property is ideal for those who want tranquility but is however, within easy reach of Skegness & Mablethorpe if you want more excitement. Would consider returning.

"We had a lovely restful stay at the cottage, sitting by the pond and watching wildlife."
We had planned on visiting several places in Lincolnshire during our stay, but as the car broke down and was in the garage for repair for 3 days, these have been put on the list next time.The cottage and all the facilities were up to our expectation. We hope that health will allow us to visit again in the future, and we will definitely recommend this cottage to our friends. We must also thank Marion and Geoff for being so kind and helpful.

"A very warm welcome from Marion the owner upon our arrival."
The cottage was a real home from home set in beautiful surroundings in the grounds of the owners home. The cottage itself had everything we needed and was well laid out and spotlessly clean. The pond and the gardens were absolutely wonderful and the summer house is another superb bonus. The peace and quiet led to a very relaxing and enjoyable holiday. Marion was very friendly and knowledgeable regarding the Lincolnshire area. If its peace and quiet you require in wonderful surroundings Garden Cottage is the one for you
