This retreat is perfect for couples, friends and small families wanting a quiet getaway in the Lincolnshire countryside surrounded by open fields and woodlands. Situated in the peaceful hamlet of Ashby De La Launde, you’ll be proximal to Sleaford, Lincoln, Grantham, Newark and Boston. Also nearby are the RAF bases Cranwell, Waddington, Digby and Coningsby: you might be lucky enough to see the red arrows fly overhead. You’ll also be just 11 miles from historic Lincoln city centre, which offers a castle, a cathedral and the famous 'Steep Hill', with its many independent shops and eateries to enjoy. The National Trust’s 17th-century Belton House is 18 miles away and features 1,300 acres of gardens and parkland, whilst Woodhall Spa National Golf Centre is 14 miles away and offers two highly rated courses. Sleaford is 7 miles away, while Newark and Grantham are around 20 miles distant. The barn forms part of a quadrangle courtyard, sitting within the owners small holding, with an abundance of wildlife on your doorstep.

Step into this stone-built single-storey barn conversion and wander through to the beautiful lounge/diner with vaulted ceilings, exposed beams and beautiful floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the courtyard. Unwind on the comfortable seating in front of the TV/DVD at the end of a busy day. The stylish kitchen area offers everything you need to rustle up a meal during your stay, with a table and chairs seating four. There are two beautiful bedrooms, each complemented with stylish wooden furniture and soft furnishings including 100% cotton bedding.

A lovely cottage in very peaceful surroundings. Everything you need is to hand and the beds and sofas are all very comfortable. The owners are very helpful but not are not intrusive at all. It was nice to see chickens , ducks and even a couple of deer during our stay. Would recommend it to any one looking for a nice peaceful cottage.

Great location, well equipped property, clean and comfortable. Hamper and provisions supplied were appreciated along with the fresh eggs the owners provided during the stay. One point to make, which is more relevant to the holiday company i.e. you need to update the property details to reflect the fact that the nearest pub is not less than a mile aRead moreway - it is in fact over 2 miles away. We enjoy walking to a pub that is nearby and is a selling point for us when choosing where to stay. Hide
