What our customers say about their holidays

  We were given a warm welcome when we arrived, and there was cake and biscuits waiting for us!

  The property is accessed down a colourful driveway and there is space to turn and reverse park in the space provided. Outside is an enclosed small sitting out area, which we used as the weather was quite good. Inside there are 2 settees with TV and Dvd (and drawer full of films) player. There was also Netflix! A new sleigh bed had very recently been purchased, we found it very comfortable. There was plenty of storage space. Note: the ceilings are all very low (my partner is 6'3) so had to be careful not to bump his head! The kitchen had all the usual amenities and a large fridge freezer. There were plenty of towels in the bathroom. Out and about, we found all the locals to be really friendly and chatty in the local pubs. If you like real ales then the 8 Sail Brewery bar is a must and is really cheap!! The Nags Head was so welcoming that we visited for the England matches. Great atmosphere. We never actually ate at the Royal Oak, but the reviews are good, especially for Sunday lunch. There are 4 good takeaways in the village, or food can be delivered to the property from Sleaford. We used the property as a base for cycling and the roads are really quiet. Though the road surface sometimes wasn't great. We would stay here again.

  We had a wonderful stay at the Olde Chapel, and Karen was wonderful in welcoming us over the phone with recommendations, even before we arrived.

  The property is located in a lovely quite area, surrounded by cabbage fields as far as the eye could see, so lovely to be immersed in the peace and tranquillity here. The house was lovely and easy to navigate, the ground floor bedroom & bathroom, especially appreciated for a family member with mobility issues. Everything we could need was provided/available to use, and we certainly appreciated the generous Welcome pack of foods, extremely kind. We loved that the property was situated within easy reach of two RSPB sites, We’ll meet again museum, Boston Church, Maude Foster windmill, Ark wildlife park, and breakfast at Boston Lock cafe & Mountain’s Farm shop………all under 20mts drive away, and which meant we could easily get back to the Chapel House / garden after a day’s exploring to enjoy the warm evening sun, reading our books and gazing over the cabbage fields, we all so loved this property! Thank you so much Karen, we will and have already recommended your lovely property to friends and work colleagues!

  We had an enjoyable time at your property, although it was still September it was a bit chilly at night and could done with a blanket fror each bedroom as the duvets are summer weight, I am 76 and my friend 81 years old and felt the chill.

  I forgot to tell you earlier that the kitchen spotlight near the fridge blew when we were there, also the toilet seat in the upstairs bathroom was loose on 1 side, I could not try to tighten it as my slightly arthritic would not oblige. Thank you for all the items in the Welcome box, especially the delicous cake, We also spent a quite few hours watching the cabbage pickers going up & down the fields. We have been friends for 49 years, living in Chichester West Sussex & Havant Hampshire, I then moved to the Charente SW France in 2001and Pam moved up to Morton Gainsborough 9 years ago, I sold my house in France earlier this year as Covid & Brexit changed the life in France, I live in Portsmouth with my daughter and grandson, I also have 2 grand daughters and 3 great grandchildren, also many friends in the UK that visited me for holidays in France, this holiday at your cottage was a great get to together to catch up with no distraction of being at home. Regards April & Pam

  The property is in a great location in the village and has most of the things that you need.

  We travelled to surrounding towns of Boston, Spalding, King's Lynn and Sleaford. As keen walkers we went out and about on foot a couple of times but we couldn't really find any footpaths and ended up walking mainly on small country lanes, I would recommend that the owners purchase a ordnance survey map for the local area and put it with the rest of local information. As for eating and drinking in the local area we called in at the Golden Windmill in Helpingham, which was ok, the Royal Oak in Heckington that was nice and the food looked good, although we didn't eat there and the Windmill Brewery in Heckington that serves its own real ales, imported larger and a selection of wines, well worth a visit. We also had a lovely Thai meal in Sleaford that we easily accessible by train as there is a convenient station in Heckington.

  "A gem in Lincolnshire".

  Ivy House Barn (IHB) is a well furnished, comfortable and clean converted barn within the grounds of the owner's house and is accessed via a private driveway. The accommodation and patio garden are private and tranquil. It is a two minute walk from the village shops, pub and a good selection of takeaways. IHB is central to several towns and many attractions including a good number of Historic WW2 Royal Airforce stations, including some that are still operational, such as RAF Coningsby, which also houses the Battle of Britain Memorial Flight. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here and would have no hesitation in recommending this lovely barn conversion to anyone. Denise is great host and could not have been more helpful. We would gladly return to stay here again in the future.
