About this property
Valentine Cottage. Lovely Country House & Garden. Near Lincoln.
Bright and spacious converted barn in a quiet village location, close the lovely Cathedral city of Lincoln.
We have lovingly renovated and modernised the old barn to retain its original features, with modern amenities for a comfortable mix of old and new.
Private aspect, not overlooked by any neighbours! This cottage is perfect for family holidays, gathering of friends or as a private retreat for just two!
On a single level* The cottage sleeps up to 6 people.
Large open plan Kitchen/Diner. Separate Lounge.
3 bedrooms with comfy king-size beds. 1 bed is zip/link which can be either a huge superking or twin beds
2 bathrooms (1 ensuite) with power showers and heated towel rails and a large bathtub
Courtyard patio and large enclosed garden
Underfloor heating throughout the cottage.
The lovely fully equipped, open plan dining kitchen has doors leading out the courtyard and south facing sunny garden. Perfect for Al fresco summer dining or a barbecue
Relax in the separate sitting room with comfortable sofas and a 50" TV, ideal for watching films or sport. Books and board games too!
The pretty courtyard has garden furniture, outdoor lighting and a large Weber barbecue, all with easy access to the kitchen!
Through the courtyard gate to the large enclosed and south facing lawned garden.
Paddock views with our few friendly pet sheep or horses.
Plenty of opportunities to walk, run or cycle from the cottage.
Nice garden pub in Scothern (less than 2 miles)
Plenty of free private parking at rear of cottage.

A great location in peaceful, friendly village. The cottage is off a quiet back lane. 30 mph speed limit and very little passing traffic.
The cottage is just 7 miles (straight, easy drive) from Lincoln. Lincoln is lovely Roman city with a fabulous Cathedral and Castle, cobbled streets, museum, galleries, independent shops and cafes. The city centre also a thriving high street.
Lincoln Zoo, Rand Farm Park, Goltho woods, villages with childrens play areas are all within minutes drive from the cottage
Easy to the Lincolnshire Wolds countryside and Market towns, such as Horncastle (great antique hunting!) and Louth.
The coast is less than an hour away. Traditional sea side resorts include Skegness, Cleethorpes or Sutton on Sea and lots of quiet, deserted beaches too!
Walking and cycle routes from the cottage door.

About the host
Hosted by Valentine Cottage

We moved in to the area 25+ years ago for the outstanding schools, open space and clean air!
As a Mum of four fabulous children, l well understand the joys and challenges of travelling with young children! I always try to offer a relaxed checkout, if l possibly can!
The cottage has a large enclosed garden where kids can run about, play and let off steam! Some garden games available.
Small, friendly village, with nice people has very little traffic and a 30 mph speed limit. Lots places to walk or cycle to from the front door!
Easy access to the lovely City of Lincoln. Great countryside and coast within easy reach.
We live in the village, in another property which is completely separately from the cottage.
We can usually be called on, if you need any help or assistance. Our contact numbers are in the cottage information folder. Otherwise, we totally respect your privacy.
