Hospitality Description: We can make 2 rooms available to you for private use, one of which has exclusive use of an en suite shower room. One has a super king bed and the other has a double. Other areas of the house would be shared but we can spend time out and with family so you get your own space! We actually shared our home with a family of 4 from Ukraine for 6 months when they first arrived so there is plenty of room!

We can also recommend coeliac- and allergy-friendly restaurants nearby.

Guest Access

Our home is on two floors, with all bedrooms upstairs. There is a staircase leading up, so the home is sadly not wheelchair accessible. We could work with you to explore options if you have specific needs that you think we might be able to accommodate!

Neighbourhood

We live in a safe, peaceful village with local amenities just a short walk away: 🛍 Village shop for essentials 🍻 Traditional pub 🐟 Fish & chip shop 🏥 Doctor’s surgery 🏰 Overlooking St. Mary’s, a stunning 12th-century church For nature lovers, we are close to RSPB Freiston Shore for birdwatching and scenic walks. The local town of Boston (15 mins) has a cinema, shops, and restaurants, including some great Indian cuisine and cozy pubs serving traditional roast dinners with Yorkshire puddings. Things to Do Nearby 🏖 Seaside Fun: • Skegness (20 mins) – A classic British seaside town with a funfair, arcades, aquarium, Clip ‘n Climb, cinema, and sandy beach. • Quiet Beaches – If you prefer something peaceful, Sutton-on-Sea and other smaller beaches are nearby. 🏰 History & Culture: • Woodhall Spa (30 mins) – A beautiful village with forest walks, an outdoor heated pool, the charming Kinema in the Woods (with an interval organist at certain showings), and the elegant Petwood Hotel for afternoon tea or a Pimm’s on the terrace. • Lincoln (1 hour) – A must-visit city with its stunning cathedral, medieval castle, and cobbled streets. • Grantham (45 mins) – Visit the National Trust’s Belton House, with gorgeous gardens and an amazing adventure playground (we may be able to provide passes). • Nottingham (1.5 hours) – Home of Robin Hood, with its own castle and city attractions.

Getting to my home

🚗 By Car – We have private parking, and our village is easily accessible from major roads. 🚆 By Train – Possible but less convenient. The nearest station is in Boston (15 mins away), with connections to Lincoln, Nottingham, and London.

Nearest airport

✈️ East Midlands Airport (1h45) – The closest major airport with domestic and international flights. ✈️ London Airports (approx. 2.5–3 hrs) – Heathrow, Gatwick, and Stansted are reachable by car or train.

Getting Around

🚗 A car is the most convenient way to explore the area, but there are local buses from Old Leake to Boston and Skegness. 🚆 Train links from Boston connect to Lincoln, Nottingham, and London, making day trips easy. We’d love to welcome you to our home—let us know if you have any questions! 😊
