The Rookery Stables

Welcome to The Rookery Stables. This beautiful cottage features two spacious bedrooms situated in the stunning Hemingby countryside. The spacious living/dining room features a Smart TV, a cosy wood burner, and French doors that open onto the garden, creating a bright and inviting space. The kitchen includes a breakfast area and is fully equipped with an electric oven, electric hob, microwave, fridge/freezer, and dishwasher. A separate toilet is also located on this floor for convenience.



The property has two well-appointed bedrooms, both with en-suite facilities. Bedroom 1 offers a zip-and-link double bed (4ft 6in), which can be adjusted to twin beds if needed, along with an en-suite featuring a cubicle shower and toilet. Bedroom 2 has a zip-and-link kingsize bed (5ft), also adaptable to twin beds, and an en-suite with a bath, shower over, heated towel rail, and toilet.



Outside, the courtyard is furnished with garden furniture, offering a relaxing outdoor space. Guests also have access to a shared 2-acre paddock, which includes an unfenced pond approximately 100 yards away. Private parking is available for two cars.



This beautifully renovated barn conversion is set in the heart of the peaceful village of Hemingby, just a short stroll down the lane to the local pub, which serves excellent food and drinks. Renovated in 2023, the property provides ample space for two couples or a small family, with both bedrooms featuring en-suite facilities. The ground floor boasts a large living/dining area with a log burner for cosy nights in, a welcoming hallway, and a fully equipped kitchen. Outside, a private, mostly paved area includes a gate leading into the paddock, offering lovely views across the fields toward the rolling hills of the Lincolnshire Wolds, where spectacular sunsets await.



Nearby, Horncastle hosts weekly markets and is known for its antique and collectibles shops, along with a good selection of stores, supermarkets, and amenities. For motorsport enthusiasts, Cadwell Park is just a 10-minute drive away, hosting events throughout the year. The east coast is about 30 minutes away, where you can visit Skegness for classic seaside attractions, Butlins for a fun-filled family day out, or Ingoldmells for the exciting Fantasy Island Theme Park.

The property was gorgeous, immaculate and well thought out. It was so comfortable and the hosts had thought of everything we could have needed. The little extras were very much appreciated. Cannot praise this property and the hosts enough for being so welcoming and informative. The location is great, so close to Horncastle and only 40 minutes from the coast. Just perfect, we can’t wait to go back.
