Description
Welbourn 1 mile.
Hilltop Barn is a delightful, three-bedroom barn conversion resting in the Lincolnshire countryside in Welbourn.
Enjoying rural views, this pet-friendly cottage offers a homely and well-equipped base for families, friends and couples, complete with a private meadow, flexible sleeping arrangements, and a lovely, decked area for alfresco affairs.
Park up off-road and travel through the private grounds, taking in the tranquillity of your new base.
Enter the property and be welcomed by a traditional kitchen/diner, ideal for cooking up delicious dishes to sample at the dining table, with handy appliances including a dishwasher, washing machine and tumble dryer.
Enjoy the countryside views from the first-floor sitting room, complete with plush sofas and a TV for evening entertainment, or spend time together outdoors, with your furry companions in tow.
For a little R&R, retreat to one of the three bedrooms, boasting a king-size, a twin, and a ground-floor twin with a TV.
Freshen up in the shower room or wet room, where you can relax in the walk-in shower.
Once you’re ready to explore, head into the village where you can stock up on the essentials and dine out, with the Joiners Arms nearby for hearty fare and a late-night tipple, or head to Sleaford for further amenities, along with the chance to explore the Cogglesford Watermill Museum, the remains of Sleaford Castle, or enjoy a picnic by the River Slea.
With the City of Lincoln, a car journey away, home to an impressive 12th-century Cathedral, a wealth of historic museums and galleries and a selection of independent shops and eateries, a visit is a must whilst in the area.
Head to Newark-on-Trent to witness its beautiful Georgian architecture, take a stroll around the local market, known as one of the best in the country, and explore the Newark Castle.

What guests are saying
Really lovely, comfortable cottage.
Great location to explore the local area and a really comprehensive guidebook provided by the owner with lovely photos, recommendations of places to eat, local village guides and suggestions for trips out. We particularly enjoyed a trip to Woodall Spa followed by a drive to Sutton on Sea for fish and chips. We were a little taken aback by the layout of the cottage - the lack of internal access (although the walkway was covered) to one of the bedrooms and bathrooms was a surprise. This probably needs mentioning in the listing as this would not be suitable for everyone, especially those with younger children. The cottage was lovely and clean and well maintained although there were lots of flies upstairs and hundreds of ladybirds around all the window frames on arrival. The kitchen had everything we needed and was well stocked with crockery and glassware. Bedrooms were comfortable and plenty of towels were left. The owner rang the day after we arrived to check we had everything we needed. Although dogs are welcome at this property, they aren’t allowed into the sitting room which is upstairs. The owner informed us of this after we arrived and again, I feel this needs mentioning on the website as it wouldn’t suit everybody to leave the dog alone in the kitchen. Overall, a really comfortable stay in an area we will definitely return to.
Overall our stay was OK and the location and general cleanliness of the cottage was good and it served our needs well.
The description could be more accurate regarding the bedrooms however. Our elderly relatives wanted to take the ground floor shower room, but it wasn't made clear that they actually had to go outside and enter through a separate door (although this was through the covered alcove). We had an infestation of about 40 flies and various flying insects on the first night, which came out of the pull down blinds and took us quite a while to deal with. I'd recommend that the cleaning team check for this before new guests enter. Otherwise, the location was good and despite being next to a busy road, we didn't hear a thing during the night and slept well once we were settled.
We loved this cottage, it was secluded with plenty of outside space which is just what we wanted and the house was very cosy.
We are definitley going back.
