This is our 3rd time staying at the Grange. Our first 2 times staying in Salters cottage. Chestnut cottage has everything you need and Chris the caretaker was always on hand should you need him. Our daughter loved the hot tub and chorine levels are checked everyday. Cottage was very clean on arrival and a nice welcome pack to greet us. There are flies with being next to the river which is to be expected, so I would recommend maybe a deterrent. However, they do provide fly spray. Our dogs loved the garden and walks by the river. Close to Skegness and ingoldmells. We also visited Hardy’s Animal Farm which our 3 year absolutely loved, as did we.Thanks for a great holiday. We will defo return 😊
