Rest and recharge at this elegant waterside holiday home, set in the Lincolnshire countryside. Sleeping five guests across three stylish bedrooms, it is perfect for families and groups of friends looking for a rural retreat, while being within easy reach of Lincoln (6 miles). The surrounding area is awash with walking trails to explore, many through the estate of Doddington Hall (1 mile). Head into Lincoln to visit its cathedral and castle (both 6 miles) or the International Bomber Command Centre (7 miles), just outside Lincoln. The city also hosts an annual 1940s weekend, while its historic Bailgate and Cathedral Quarter provide the setting for a popular steampunk festival. The Lincolnshire Showground (8 miles) holds events throughout the year, while other days out include Lincoln Zoo (14 miles), Rand Farm Park (16 miles), Gainsborough Old Hall (16 miles), the antiques fairs at Newark (12 miles) and Sherwood Pines (25 miles).
The striking, wood-clad retreat is decorated in a contemporary style, with sleek furniture, a calming colour palette, and thoughtful little extras to make your stay as comfortable as possible. On the ground floor, you’ll find a bright and spacious lounge/kitchen/diner with a fabulous double-height ceiling and floor-to-ceiling windows looking out across the water. The kitchen area is equipped with a range of high-end appliances to make cooking a breeze, and you can share mealtimes around the chic breakfast bar or at the wooden dining table by the window. In the evenings, relax on the sofas in front of the Smart TV, or take yourself upstairs to the glass-fronted mezzanine reading nook to get stuck into your holiday book or just sit quietly and take in the tranquil views. Back downstairs, there are two gorgeous bedrooms, both with plush linens and neutral decor; choose from a versatile twin that can be made up as a super-king-size on request or a large single. Rounding off the ground floor is a stunning family bathroom with a free-standing bath. The remaining bedroom – a super-king-size – is located upstairs and has its own en-suite shower room.
From the lounge area, glass doors open onto the decked terrace, where you can enjoy an al fresco meal on a summer’s evening or sit with your morning coffee as you watch the local wildlife and admire the beautiful reflections in the lake. To the side of the property is your own grassed area for picnics and outdoor games. The driveway leads to private parking for two cars.
