Located in a picturesque village setting, this converted former church, bursting with breathtaking original features, offers couples and families an unforgettable base for an adventure across the Lincolnshire Wolds, with plenty of walks from the doorstep. The peaceful village of Market Stainton is surrounded by rolling countryside, with a variety of footpaths and bridleways to explore, making it the perfect base for anyone keen to reconnect with the great outdoors. Known as the 'Gateway to the Wolds', Horncastle, 8 miles away, is steeped in heritage, boasting the remains of Roman walls, as well as a brilliant selection of quirky antique and vintage shops. Lincoln Castle, 23 miles away, built by William the Conqueror, is a must-see for history lovers. Bursting with Edwardian character, the elegant village of Woodhall Spa, 14 miles away, offers a wealth of independent shops and friendly cafés to enjoy.

Leave behind the village green, head through the quaint gate and along the pathway leading to the grand church front door that’s reminiscent of days gone by. Wonderfully high ceilings, beautiful lighting, exposed brickwork and beams, natural light and magnificent arched windows greet you. Perfectly combining the church’s rich heritage with contemporary design, the stylish kitchen will capture your imagination, inspiring you to rustle up a fantastic feast with your delicious local produce. Leading off the kitchen lies a large dining space, perfect for enjoying some local delicacies and gathering your whole party to plan tomorrow’s adventure. At the heart of this bolthole, the adjoining lounge boasts even more historic touches that both embrace the history of this former church and set the scene for relaxation. The contemporary bathroom is bursting with elegance and true sophistication. The king-size bedroom retains much of the church’s original character, creating a sense of stepping into the pages of a classic novel. Up the steep staircase to the first floor, you’ll find a handy dressing room, ideal for storing all your holiday belongings.

The property was even better than I hoped for. The open plan interior provided plenty of space for the dogs to play while I was busy in the kitchen area, although they much preferred being outdoors. The kitchen was really well equipped and the coffee pods and dishwasher/washing machine tablets were also provided. The main bedroom certainly had the Read more"wow" factor as you opened the door and the bed was really comfortable. The bathroom was amazing, although I did have some teething problems with the shower, but this was resolved as soon as I notified the owners. There was a lovely welcome pack waiting for me and the plum loaf was to die for. I didn't get to view the dressing room and second bedroom as I struggle with stairs, but I had no need for them anyway. The area was so peaceful and the garden was a sun-trap, so most of our time was spent outdoors,it was so relaxing. Obviously, with the church being built of stone, there were spiders, but it wouldn't stop me booking this property again. Hide
