Reviews
This beautiful unique cottage is in an ideal location attached to Newport Arch in the uphill Bailgate area of Lincoln. The Cathedral, Castle & various other places of interest are only a few minutes walk away, and there are plenty of restaurants, bars, pubs etc within a short walk too. The cottage is far bigger than you imagine from the outside, and despite its busy location, it is surprisingly quiet and private. The garden is a hidden treasure and ideal for enjoying warm summer evenings with friends. The cottage is tastefully furnished, very clean with comfortable beds & bedding. It is also extremely well equipped, and the WiFi system secure and reliable. The welcome pack of fine Lincolnshire produce was well received and enjoyed by all our party. We created many special memories over our weekend break, and after being cancelled at very short notice on our previous choice of accommodation, we couldn’t believe our luck to have found this hidden gem. Highly recommended and hope to return in the future.
