We found the property very peaceful, with lovely scenery. Owner was very obliging and helpful.
Mr Hodder, Newark, August 2012
The building is a beautiful stone built cottage and the owner has worked very hard to make it look Gothic and no expense has been spared. Although the cottage and garden is very close to the main house, you still feel like you have privacy and with a log burner outside, seating area under the eaves and the sound of the buzzards flying over head you soon get the feeling of peace and tranquility. This is a wonderful little place, a true gem hidden in the countryside.
Mrs Creswell, Immingham, July 2012
The Arch is quaint and quirky and very different from anything seen previously, but in a very acceptable way. In a lovely setting with a very nice view. The Arch has everything you need for a carefree holiday.
Mr Halford, Tidworth, July 2012
A beautiful, peaceful situation and a lovely character cottage in a delightful garden. Couldn't have been more picturesque and comfortable. Owner in nearby house very helpful. Well placed to walk sections of Offa's Dyke footpath. Perhaps the nicest cottage we have ever stayed in.
