  A perfect stay!

  ! Spent a week here with my wife and family to celebrate my 30th birthday and it certainly did not disappoint. The cottage is outstanding and Clare’s attention to detail did not go unnoticed from the little doggy welcome pack to the “just in case you forgot” basket which provided some handy items (as I forgot my shower gel). The cottage instantly felt like home and is the cleanest, most well presented cottage we have ever stayed in. The pool table and hot tub meant the couple of rainy days we had were no issue at all. Woodhall spa has so much to offer. It’s unique town with independent shops is a must see, and it’s very easy to see why the town won best presented in 2011 and 2012, the houses and surrounding areas are pristine. Clare’s welcome book with recommendations were spot on. Abbey lodge is a must visit if you want to be taken to food heaven, the home cooked pie was a winner. Anderby creek is also a must see, a beautiful dog friendly quiet sandy beach and just a short walk from the observatory providing great views out to see and a great lunch. Finally, the tea house in the woods kept calling our names. We visited it three times during our stay and had to resist the urge for a fourth before leaving. The cream tea and scones are a different level. The highlight for me was seeing our little doggy Simba have the best holiday ever. He loved splashing around in the sea, running on the beach and exploring the garden. Clare is an amazing host, so kind, helpful and friendly. Nothing is too much trouble. We can’t wait to return in the future and highly recommended a trip here. We feel very rested after our week stay :).

  Lovely house , great location.

  However I would not class this as a family home. We were asked not to play family games in the garden & asked to leep pur noise down by a neighbour due to it being such a quiet area. Absolutely acceptable but not laughing and having fun should be kept down. It hired as a family holiday home. Which ment we felt we couldn't enjoy how we like to. We were asked to be out the hot tub by 9pm which is very early for adults. The cleanliness looked fab on arrival but when started to un packing we found spiders every where, cob webs every where, crisp packet In-between sofa, sock left under bed, and more. There was a smell when arrived of sewage, was told it was the plug not pushed down correctly. After products n fee days it slowly went. The neighbours were lovely barring one who asked us as a family to not have any loud fun. He also was very unhappy this home was a holiday home n made his views very aware to us and made us feel very uncomfortable. The welcome pack I felt was not acceptable. A fee basic loose t.bags, few sachets of coffee n sugar in a basket with dog hairs in ... yuk. No milk so couldn't even have a brew after a 7 hour drive. Yes prosecco but id definitely prefer a brew than a glass of prosecco after a long drive. I understand it self catering but sykes accommodation are always a wow factor especially their welcome packs and I have to say this was the worst I'd experienced. Unfortunately this holiday was far from pur best and I hope these things are took on board. Being in this buisness myself I would rate this property at forst look 8 out 10 but on arrival and settling in 4 out 10.

  Wow! What can I say about Daisy Tree Cottage?

  ! First of all, a BIG thank-you to the lovely host Clare, for letting us stay at this stunning property. We all have thoroughly enjoyed it. Right from the comfortable beds, and well catered to supplies in the bathrooms and kitchen (essentials like these are a must! Tired of going away and forgetting something, then having to fork out to add extras or kitchen equipment as it's not supplied). The host was absolutely lovely. We loved the games room, the well maintained garden and the hottub. The property overall was very clean and cosy. We loved the complimentary goodies especially the wine and the plum loaf. The whole area was very quaint and charming and very enjoyable. If I could choose to live anywhere, then I think this would be my heaven on earth dream come true. My youngest was hype about it when he got back, says it was the best holiday ever! My eldest, although a bit fussy, was glad of the comfy mattress, as the last holiday we went on, had awful lumpy ones, so at least he slept better this time. We just adored this place, it was so nice and peaceful here. Also, the shops were very easy to reach and there was an especially nice bakery, which sold some rather exquisite delectables. Overall, I think 10/10 doesn't seem fair, as this property is more a 100/10! Walking through that door the first day, after having lost a day due to a mix-up with the hire car, was such a welcome relief. Just absolutely loved it through and through. Many thanks for making holidays great again. ❤️

  10/10 A little gem, a beautiful property in rural Lincolnshire with everything you need for a comfortable stay.

  Surrounded by nature and the most beautiful scenery. The Chapel is surprisingly spacious. It was very clean, modern, warm and well decorated. The hosts Karen and Paul were friendly, accommodating, contactable and just couldn’t do enough for you, they really put a lot of care and effort into making the Chapel the best experience possible. Special touches like the lovely lemon cake were very much appreciated and enjoyed. We had 3 children and a dog with us and they were all catered for so well. The dog even had a welcome package of his own. We stayed in December and the house was decorated for Christmas and hot chocolate and marshmallow cones were made up for the children. The garden is fully enclosed I don’t think it shows in the pictures but there is a mesh along the fence so no need to worry about any escapees. Whilst there we visited historic Lincoln Castle and cathedral and took a walk up steep hill, we visited the new aquarium and dinosaur falls in Skegness, We took a trip to Donna Nook to see the seals and their pups and then to Spalding Baytree winter wonderland to visit Father Christmas and the Springfield shopping village …all well worth a visit . A wonderful stay and we will definitely book again. Thank you Karen and Paul

  We have had a fantastic stay at Holt House.

  On arrival there was a birthday card and fresh flowers from Ian and Ali as I had said we would be celebrating my 60th birthday at the weekend. There was also a welcome hamper which we all loved and the tea/coffee pots were full. We had plenty of room for a family of 6 adults 2 children and a dog to have comfy seats to rest on. We all loved the games room and beautiful garden with garden furniture to relax on. The bedrooms were beautifully decorated and we had ample towels for baths/showers. The very big kitchen had every pot/pan and utensil we could have thought of. Everything was immaculately clean and was typical of a country cottage theme. We would highly recommend a stay in this beautiful part of the country. There are plenty of places to visit on days out close to Holt House. We played golf, had a trip into Lincoln and the beautiful Belton House owned by the national trust. Items such as washing up liquid, tea towels, tinfoil, kitchen roll were all provided. Holt House is a beautiful place to stay and we would thoroughly recommend it.
