Beautiful cottage
We had a wonderful short stay at Laurel Cottage, so close to all of Lincoln’s historic attractions. The cottage itself is simply, yet elegantly furnished. Ideal for small family trips. Catherine’s communication was friendly and almost instantaneous. Thank you for a wonderful stay.

Excellent location
This was a well maintained cottage with a lovely little courtyard. Location could not be any better for steep hill side of Lincoln so ynless you want to go to rhe modern side you dont have climb hill. Parking was so easy right outside door. Will definitely be returning to this cottage. Only downside was we couldnt get heating working properly for some reason it cane on at 2am so turned bedroom radiator off
