    The cottage was beautiful. Absolutely spotless. Everything you could have wanted was there. Had a small problem with the lights, but John came over and fixed it within 5 minutes. Will definitely be going back in the future.

    Location, size and facilities suited us down to the ground. Amazing conservatory and the garden areas worked a treat for the ‘hound’ ! The bungalow ticked all the boxes for our week of visiting family who were also very impressed with our choice of accommodation.

  • "Property was okay and owners where friendly , But felt as though we were being watch all the time And roads into property where not great and getting to driveway was tight as we have a large car if you hard , the property could do with a bit of an overhaul as it lacks in comfort and the paint work and flooring really needs doing, and there differently need a new bed as the mattress is so hard as we could not get comfortable on it, we paid 119 pounds on a mattress top and new pillows just to try a get the bed comfortable so we could sleep ."

    I’m not one to make a fuss, but I paid a lot more than I normally would so expected it to have a lot more comfort for the money we paid .

  • "Long Acres Bungalow is really fantastic, one of the best cottages we have stayed in over the last 30 years."

    Spacious, modern, comfortable, quiet - yes it's in the middle of nowhere but quite central to various attractions such as the Wildlife Park, National Trust properties, Ayscoughee Hall and Gardens, the Aviation Centre, several market towns and the seaside. We visited all these during our week's stay and were lucky enough to have beautiful weather all week. This part of Lincolnshire is a hidden gem and I definitely recommend Long Acres as your base!

  • "A fabulous bungalow, spotless clean and very well equipped."

    Fast response for a small issue with the shower head, I can honestly say I would give this accommodation 10/10. Just a small request to make it even better would be to ask for a pair of curtains to go over the blinds in the large bedroom, as the security lights shine through the blinds all through the night and light up the bedroom! Otherwise just perfect, highly recommended!!

    A lovely comfortable bungalow with everything you could possibly want. The owners, John and Tracey, are a lovely friendly couple who are on hand for anything you need. Lots to do for all tastes within the local area and dog friendly pubs serving excellent food within a short drive. Ideally located for the seaside or countryside. Lincolnshire Aviation Heritage Centre is just a few miles away, well worth a visit. Highly recommended all round.

    John & Tracey are ideal owners, there if and when you need them, but not in your face, and easy to get on with. If you are concerned about the caravan park, you don't need to be, you hardly know it's there! This was our second visit and we so no reason not to return in the future. Bungalow is BIGGER than it looks and well equipped.

    It was a detached bungalow on its own site with a very large conservatory on one end and had a large lounge and a sizeable, well equipped dining kitchen. Whilst the views were very limited we found the location ideal for visiting the attractions in the local are. We would recommend going to the Lincolnshire Aviation Trust at nearby East Kirby, especially on a Lancaster bomber taxying day - it's a memorable sight to be so near to a Lancaster with the engines going a full blast ! There are a number of dining pubs nearby and the local Co-op and fish and chip shop are only a short drive away.

    On entering the property it was nice and warm as we arrived on the coldest day of October. Having had a quick look around the property was exactly as the photo's showed on the website and it was spotless, it was really roomy and the conservatory even had radiators which meant we could sit in there so we stuck all our daughters toys in it and let it be her play room for the week which was perfect. The kitchen was well equipped and we were able to put a meal together without struggling for anything. The garden was enclosed and secure and the drive even had a gate which we shut every time we came back just in case our daughter did get out so she couldn't get out of the grounds of the bungalow which gave us peace of mind. If you were thinking of booking don't hesitate you won't be disappointed.

About the location

OLD LEAKE

Boston 8 miles; Skegness 15 miles.

Old Leake is a quiet, South Lincolnshire village on the edge of the Fens, an area known as the “Holland of England” due to its bulb fields, vegetable production and windmill sails. Old Leake sits in lovely countryside and has a shop, Post Office, three pubs, a sports field and a children’s playground. Less than 9 miles away, the market town of Spilsby offers shops, restaurants and inns, while Trader Windmill, a working mill now run by English Heritage, can be found 4 miles away in Sibsey. The area has much on offer: the former WWII airfield at East Kirkby, now an Aviation Heritage centre, the large market town of Boston, the traditional seaside resort of Skegness and the antiques centre of Horncastle. For nature lovers, RSPB Freiston Shore and Frampton Marshes are within easy distance, and the coastline, Fens and rolling hills of the Wolds offer many walks.
