We enjoyed a lovely weekend at The Granary, the accommodation was to a very high standard and the hot tub was very spacious. We had a ride to Chapel St Leonards which was only about 10 mins drive so it was a great location for the coast and Louise & Rich were very welcoming & helpful. Would certainly recommend🙂

We spent an amazing week at the Old Granary in Sloothby. The Cottage is stunning with absolutely everything you need at hand. Louise the host is so lovely and attentive.. always nearby to lend a hand.. the Old Granary is so comfortable, very large and spacious. A real credit to the owners, who work so hard to make it special for the guests.. we really enjoyed star gazing in the hot tub at night with a bit of bubbly... The cottage is ideally situated, being close to the stunning Lincolnshire coast.. we absolutely loved Huttoft with the nature reserve and amazing cafe with rooftop views of the coast and the reserve. Very pet friendly and the food was great and reasonably priced.. we couldn't have asked for more from our stay at the Granary. Thank you Louise and Richard. We would highly recommend staying in this stunning cottage located in a beautiful area of Lincolnshire.

The Old Granary is a lovely barn conversion with excellent fireplace and very good hot tub. The bed was comfortable amd bedding was soft. We slept very well. The hosts are lovely and helpful, easy communication. Few tips: if you want to eat in local pubs pls call them and check if they are serving food that day (sadly the nearest pub was not serving food during our stay).
