  • "The flat was clean and comfortable."

    It had everything two people needed for a week-long self-catering stay. It is close to several takeaways and shops. The only slight downside is that the living room is overlooked by a car park. It did not bother us, but it might bother others.

    Hello, thank you so much for your lovely feedback. We had already ordered shutters for the living room which will be fitted just after Christmas. We're so pleased you enjoyed your stay! Property Owner

  • "Great location for visiting Lincolnshire and South Yorkshire."

    The cottage is extremely well equipped and the food basket and bottle of wine were a lovely touch. Supermarket and eateries are all nearby. We would definitely stay here again if visiting the area.

  • "Beautiful cottage."

    Really comfortable, clean, lovely place to stay. Easy access to visit North Lincolnshire. We got to see a lot of nature reserves, RAF history & lovely walks. After a busy day, you can come back to the cottage, pub across the road. Fish & chips the other side! Perfect!

  • "A cozy and quiet cottage located in the heart of Caistor."

    Fonaby was well-equipped with everything you could possibly need including a comfy bed and superb shower. The owners were very thoughtful leaving a generous welcome pack and the heating on to greet us on a cold February night. The photos perhaps don't do justice to the quality of the fittings or the new sash windows. Highly recommended!

  • "Had a lovely stay at the Fonaby cottage, all the facilities were perfect, which gave me a chance to relax and chill out for the duration of my stay, Just a very minor issue with the bathroom wash basin was very small and the push down plug did not work."

    Perfect little place, would highly recommend and may well ask to return there again,

  • "It's a lovely, clean place and it has everything you need, nothing was missed."

    It was very thoughtful to receive lovely goodies for our stay. The bed is really comfy and clean. Parking is a bit of a niggle, not always getting a space and having to find somewhere else to park. On the whole a lovely place to stay

    Thank you for your great feedback and we are really pleased you enjoyed your stay!. Caistor is undergoing some refurbishment works on various central historical buildings at the moment so we appreciate that parking can be difficult at times but this is temporary. Thanks again. Property Owner

  • "Fonaby is a lovely place to stay."

    All the essentials excellent - shower, mattress, cleanliness, comfort and facilities, but it is also a really attractive and pleasant place to be. Great location for the Wolds and in easy reach of Lincoln and the coast. Caistor itself is charming with lovely flower displays everywhere and great places to eat. Thoughtful touches on arrival appreciated. Definitely intend to stay again.

    Thank you for your kind feedback - it is much appreciated! Property Owner

  • "An excellent property very clean and in excellent condition."

    Suggestion for a net curtain in lounge being ground floor would provide some more privacy without losing too much light. Otherwise a perfect property, would definitely recommend.

    Thank you so much for taking the time to leave such lovely feedback. We will definitely look into your suggestion. Thank you for booking with us! Property Owner

    Thank you so much for taking the time to leave feedback. We are very pleased that you enjoyed the property itself but sorry to hear your stay was spoiled by noise from holidaymakers upstairs. From now on we will ask upstairs guests to be appreciative of the comfort of our guests downstairs if the flats are let at the same time. We hope that this won't deter you from visiting us again.
