Swallow's Nest

Everything thought through carefully to make sure guests want for nothing.

Right down to dog biscuits left ( and human biscuits too!). A very quiet and relaxing property and well situated for exploring North Lincolnshire. The local pub serves good food from 12noon till 9pm. Vicki and Jon were the perfect hosts - unobtrusive but available for anything. Nothing was too much trouble.

Our first holiday with our puppy and a perfect location to visit family.

A beautiful property with lots of lovely finishing touches. We wanted somewhere quiet to relax and enjoy walks with the dog, this had just that. The only negative was the sky lights but we can remedy that by bringing an eye mask, and we have already booked to come back.

Clean, comfortable and attractive accommodation in a beautiful, quiet rural setting.

The cottage is very well-equipped - everything we needed was there. The shower is excellent and there was powerful and reliable broadband throughout our stay. The enclosed area to front is great if you have a dog - our dog wanted out there all the time. There are several wonderful walks from the cottage and many more further afield. Redbourn village itself has a lovely green and a good pub within walking distance of the cottage. Close by, Brigg is good for shopping and the square at Kirton Linsey is well worth a visit for the pub and several friendly tea rooms. Our hosts were welcoming, friendly and helpful. This is a place we will definitely be returning to when able.

What an absolute joy our mini-break at Swallow's Nest was.

Surrounded by beautiful , peaceful countryside. Perfect for walking our labrador, Roscoe and a property that he took to without hesitation. Would definitely recommend and we will certainly be looking to revisit next year. Thank you so much!

Very clean and comfortable accommodation.

Super dog friendly. Very friendly owners and would love to return with the dogs again sometime

We had a wonderful stay at Swallow’s Nest.

Ideal for dogs, with walks from your doorstep. Hosts are friendly and helpful. Will be returning.

A perfect get away retreat from everyday life.

So quiet and peaceful surrounded by nature. The owners are really nice.

When we arrived, we was welcomed by John.

He showed us to the cottage when me and my husband. went in and had a look round it was absolutely fantastic very homely and everything that we needed our dog buster loved the garden and the fact it was all enclosed so he couldn’t get out. We had a fantastic weekend away and I would definitely recommend swallows nest.

Very cosy cottage good facilities clean and well maintained in a lovely quiet location.

We enjoyed our stay and will be happy to return in the future.

Clean and comfortable, well maintained and very quiet.

Stunning cottage, very well equipped and comfortable especially the bed.

Such a beautiful location and wonderful walks direct from the door. Really loved the area and people were so friendly. The only downside was there was a lot of shooting going on, some of which was very close to the garden and frightened my dogs so much. This was no fault of the owners and beyond their control, just a part of rural life. Sadly because of this we couldn't return to the cottage and feel that other dog owners who have dogs that are scared of loud bangs should be made aware of this issue.

The property was simple gorgeous!

Really beautiful furnished and well equipped. The hosts were very friendly. We were very relaxed and comfortable throughout our stay.

We had a lovely long weekend at Swallows Nest.

Very comfortable and well equipped. A quiet location with some lovely walks.

A delightful property and very helpful hosts.

The remote position was much appreciated and we loved hearing the owls! The lovely walks along the sides of the fields were ideal for the dog! My only slight problem was the height of the settees - which is common at most properties- as, with a bad back I find I can’t get out of low ones! Luckily there was a comfy carver chair so it was better than nothing. That will not prevent us from returning hopefully later this year!

Great cottage for two plus dog !

Lovely walks straight from the door, no worries about traffic or noise, apart from bird song, owl hoots and pheasants. Small fully enclosed garden, west facing to see the lovely sunsets.

Lovely position, comfy and surprisingly spacious cottage

We were delighted with the presentation of Swallows Nest and loved staying there so much we are going back in a few months.

Ideal for dog lovers as there really is a safe fenced in garden with this property - so often, this can be misleadingly described. Jacquie

We had a fantastic week here, very quiet and relaxing.

Best sleep I've had in months. Loved the log stove, very cosy and the super king bed was amazingly comfortable. The little garden was fully enclosed so we didnt have to worry about our 2 tiny dogs running off. Met the owner (neighbour) John and we had a good chat about lawnmowers. We enjoyed being here so much we booked to come back in September while we were still there.

The cottage is beautiful and very well presented.

We had a wonderful week. Kitchen is compact but has everything you would need. Loved the wet room made me want one even more. Had the log burner on each afternoon/night so sitting in front of the tv/reading/playing cards was so cosy. Lots of long flat walks for the furry boys and husband following the river and seeing the swans. Thank you for a fabulous stay.

We loved the cottage.

It has been renovated to a high standard and is well equipped with everything needed. The best thing though, was the footpaths from the cottage door. It was brilliant to be able to walk the dogs without going near any roads. We will be looking to book again.

Everything about the place was perfect, from the fabulous accommodation to the amazing walks, we really enjoyed our week there with our dogs and will definitely be returning.

Very nice and clean and cosy.

Everything you could need. Amazing walk straight out the door along the river

Swallow's Nest is in a peaceful location with countryside walks on the doorstep.

The hosts are friendly, helpful and informative but not invasive. The accommodation is tastefully decorated and furnished with everything you need for a stay. A warm, cosy and welcoming cottage.

Nice quiet location, decent size enclosed garden that our dog liked, we enjoyed our week here.

A delightful cottage with original features of its previous existence tastefully matched with modern day requirements, set in a rural relaxing location.

This is a haven for dog owners and walkers alike with local paths and bridal ways on the door step. The cottage was very well presented and the owners have gone out of their way to ensure that information was available on amenities in the local area.

Our 2nd visit to swallows nest.

. beautiful cottage surrounded by beautiful countryside. The cottage has everything you need, comfortable, cosy and quiet. We had lovely days out to nearby woods and country parks with our dog and also long walks in the countryside that’s right on the doorstep. I cannot recommend Swallows Nest enough, absolutely 5* and we will be back next year.. Thankyou Jon and Vicki.

I would highly recommend Swallows nest for anyone looking for a peaceful and totally relaxing holiday

Great Location, peaceful and quiet it was everything I expected and more.

A well equipped cottage in a beautiful setting. Plenty of walking for myself and my two Cocker Spaniels. A great base for the three days I was back in Lincolnshire for the first time in many years, it was a joy to return to Swallows Nest after extremely busy days viewing houses, and being able to sit in the absolute quiet surroundings made it easier to review each day, I will definitely be back, such a great stay.

Lovely accommodation in a beautiful part of the world.

Very relaxing and peaceful location. Situated ideally to explore the surrounding area.

Everything about the property area and host was perfect, very highly recommended.

Fabulous property away from the world where we were able to relax and unwind with our dogs for a week.

Loved it!

This is the second time we have stayed at Swallow's Nest, and we weren't disappointed.

Everything was as brilliant as the first time we stayed. The hosts were friendly and accommodating, from giving advice of where to go locally for something to eat, local walks & beeches for our dog; and acknowledging us throughout our stay, yet not being intrusive. The accommodation was clean, airy and well supplied with all the home comforts plus more small touches to dog treats for our labrador & biscuits for us. We had an amazing stay and would highly recommend Swallow's Nest to anyone seeking a little piece of rural R&R

Swallows Nest was perfect and Vicki and Jon were lovely people who were always there if we needed anything.

The fresh eggs from their hens was a bonus! No doubt that we shall return even if the weather is not as splendid as it was this time. Lincolnshire was beautiful and there were some great walks round and about.

LOVLEY COTTAGE and lovley area .

Owners helpful. Would go back again .

Great cottage, lovely location and hosts.

The cottage was superb very clean and had everything you could ask for. We would have no reason not too book it again

Lovely cottage, perfect area for dog walks, whole area is very dog friendly.

Local pub have great food From the lovely cottage to area around I would highly recommend this property David Janine and Lola

We had a wonderful holiday with our dog, who loved the local walks.

Swallows Nest is so lovely - well designed and maintained and full of history, in a quiet location with plenty of birds to watch whilst relaxing in the garden. Thank you Jon, Vicki and Gem.

Me and my husband had a great time in the house and we are so happy that you had a the best for the comfort for the bed as I don't sleep great with my back and I slept with hardly any waking up which is a rarity .

So I am just greatful so I could really enjoy our stay and thank you for being dog friendly to, hope to visit you in the future thanks once again

The property is fabulous, very tasteful and comfortable.

Good safe enclosed garden for our little dog. Comfortable garden furniture to relax in. The owners are lovely people very friendly and helpful. Shall certainly be returning in the near future.

Beautiful cottage so cozy had trouble with the wifi connecting to our phones for some reason been to quite a few of sykes cottages and never had this problem did put us off a bit to be honest away over new year and couldn't use messenger or WhatsApp to video our family as didn't have enough data left for month

Swallows Nest is a lovely little cottage, beautifully decorated, well equipped and very comfortable.

The owners, Jon and Vicki, were very welcoming and helpful. A wonderful place to stay, we would definitely recommend it.

We had a wonderful week in this beautifully renovated cottage which was super comfortable and a pleasure to be in.

The situation and walks from the cottage were brilliant - quiet, peaceful and with plenty of birds to see and hear. We also enjoyed exploring the local area which was full of interest and history. We rarely go back to the exact same area/cottage but do intend to do so this time.

This cottage is absolutely beautiful inside and out.

The amount of effort gone into the design is amazing. Very stylish and comfortable and the garden is absolutely perfect, especially for those couples with dogs. Peace and quiet in abundance and lovely setting by waterways, yet only a half hour walk to the village with it's welcoming pub and beautiful cottages, one of which sells seasonal fruit, veg and flowers from a stall. Highly recommend.

A lovely hideaway set a short distance from the local village.

Really comfy and an ideal property for two plus your furry friend. Great walks right from the property. Lots of wildlife in the area to observe. You can even watch skydivers from the garden. Lots to see and do locally. Would recommend a trip to Blyton Ice cream parlour where they have 50+ flavours for you to try and a lovely cafe if you want something more substantial. A true home from home. Definitely recommend and would love to return soon. Vicki, Jon & Gem are on hand in the rare case you may need assistance.

Comfortable and warm.

Ample supply of logs for log burner included in price. Huge super king size bed which was very comfortable. Lots of dog walks from right outside the door. Enclosed garden too which was very useful. Ideal for peace and quiet with pub in village serving nice food and doggy friendly too.

Exactly as we hoped, a lovely place to stay.

The dogs loved it too, the garden was perfect for them. The house itself was lovely, light and spacious, and the fire was plenty to keep us warm after a day out walking and exploring in the chilly weather!

Lovely place and extremely cosy with the wood burner.

All that you need for a couple on a stay away !

Lovely, tranquil, cosy cottage.

Would thoroughly recommend both we and the pooches loved it

A lovely rural retreat in Lincolnshire with all modern amenities and well equipped.

The surrounding areas are ideal for walking and the property has a very secure enclosure for your pet dog. The hosts John and Vicky are very friendly and approachable. If you want a quiet and relaxing holiday i would recommend this property.

Thanks John and Vicky for being great hosts, nothing was too much trouble for you for making our stay perfect.

We loved our time at swallows nest, the only downside being we couldn't stay longer.

Wonderful little place.

Very comfortable. Especially the bed. We slept really well. Handy area to dry the dogs. Well stocked kitchen. Really needed the log burner as the little heaters didn't quite keep the place warm enough. That was fine though as the log burner was lovely. All in all a good restful few days. Than you.

Beautifully renovated farm building.

Comfortable furniture and good walks nearby (or at least they would have been if the weather had been better). Huge comfortable bed! Good bit of an enclosed area for the dogs outside the door. Really the only downside was that none of our devices would connect to their WIFI (and the local pub does not have customer WIFI). We hope to return.

Absolutely perfect place to have some time to yourself and relax!

10/10 for cleanest and the Owners are lovely! Would 100% stay again.

The cottage is perfect for a quiet and peaceful break.

This was our first time away with our rescue greyhound and he settled in to the cottage straight away because it was so quiet. Ideal for 2 people and a dog. Good use of space in the cottage and very comfortable bed.

We had a wonderful stay at Swallows Nest.

The property is beautiful, extremely clean and very well maintained. The attention to detail is first class, The surroundings are stunning, the countryside and the woods stretch for miles which was great for our dog, who was happy that he could explore the area off lead. Ollie, our dog loved his trip away and settled so well, the first time we’ve managed to complete a stay as due to him being a very nervous dog, he doesn’t settle staying away from home too well if the area is busy or noisy, we have always needed to come home early for him. We loved the area, so lovely and quiet and listening to the owls at night. We were so sad to leave but we will definitely be back for a longer stay. Thankyou for a perfect time.

Lovely clean comfortable well equipped cottage.

A very nice welcome pack in terms of treats and lovely flowers. Ideal location for walking; lots of easy walking right from the door.. our dogs loved it. Friendly hosts, loved the log burner

Was very good overall only issue we had was no washing machine so we had to hand wash other than this it was a beautiful place and very nice

A fabulous and peaceful stay for my dog and I.

Walks in every direction, lovely village to explore with an excellent pub. The accommodation was superb; tasteful and well laid out with everything you could need… I felt very at home. Excellent log burner and to have logs provided saved expense and hassle, much appreciated! The owners couldn’t have been more helpful and friendly. Would definitely come again. Thank you for a wonderful restful break!

We arrived to be told that the wifi was down due to a local farmer ploughing up the cable.

As we were ion the middle of selling a commercial property we to spend a lot of time finding local places with connections. Not easy to go into a coffee shop and start spreading you files over their tables. In the end we went home early. If we had been informed of this problem before we left home we could have easily brought a router with sim with us and thus there would have not been a problem. Sykes this ought to have happened, not good enough.

We couldn’t fault anything.

The whole experience was everything we wished for and more. A great place for the dogs too, safe to run free without any worries.

Lovely holiday home in beautiful surroundings.

Well equipped with everything you could need, it's very comfortable and we really enjoyed our stay. Lots of dog walking trails right on the doorstep and lots of places of interest to visit in the area.

An absolutely wonderful few days stay.

I needed complete rest and I got just that. Wonderful countryside walks and a bench by the river, to just sit.. Lots of amenities, making sure we had everything we could have possibly needed.. Will definitely book again.. Thank you SO much John and Vicki

Swallows Nest was a great little cottage and made my stay plus dog :-) a very relaxing break.

Good walking from the front door and Redbourne Village is an easy stroll for either a meal or a drink in the Red Lion. The owners were very helpful and the recommendations for visits to local restaurants/pubs gives a good list of places to visit. If you have a dog they will love it! - My dog Blaze is still sulking! Steven

Spent a weekend at Swallow's nest and completely agree with the previous reviews.

The property has been renovated to such a high standard and has everything you need for a comfortable stay. Having designated parking and outdoor space is really important to me as it's just me and my dog and having access to so many beautiful walks straight from the door was an added bonus. Really comfy bed and sofas and the decor throughout the property is stunning. Would definitely recommend this property and location to anyone looking for a relaxing break

Fabulous place to stay.

The cottage is all you need and more. The setting is beautiful. Probably the most relaxed I have been for a very long while. Oh yes, and the dog loved it too.

A lovely cottage, everything you need.

So peaceful and relaxing. Walks from the door. Would definitely recommend. Will be back to stay. Lovely hosts.

We had the most amazing time at 'Swallows Nest'.

Surrounded by beautiful, unspoilt countryside. It was absolutely idyllic and so quiet. My husband, the dog and I were spoilt for choice when deciding which walk to go on. Perfect! So much wildlife to see, we were lucky enough to see the visiting swallows, swans with nesting cygnets and hares. The cottage itself was great. Everything was catered for and very well equipped. Although one building, an old converted cattle shed, it was spacious, modern and light. The bed was so huge & so comfortable. Was a bonus not having to bring bedding and towels as these were included. Really cannot recommend this piece of paradise enough. John & Vicki were amazing hosts. Thank you & we will return.

So quiet and peaceful.

We loved our stay at Swallows Nest. There is only fields around which you can walk around without having to use the car or you can drive 30min to the seaside. Loved the big comfy bed, Netflix on the TV so we could watch films, the wet room with a great shower and the enclosed garden for our French bulldog. Really nice, relaxing accommodation.

Just returned from a fabulous stay at Swallow’s Nest.

Nothing but praise, amazing rural location which was perfect for the dogs with walks from the door, beautiful decor, comfortable furniture, super comfy beds and fully equipped with everything we needed. Great hosts on hand when needed but in no way intrusive. Highly recommend and we are looking forward to coming back in the future.

Great location for a get away from it all type break.

Wonderful walks, very well maintained with attention to detail far exceeding our expectations.

Lovely well equipped cottage Friendly and welcoming owners And lovely countryside location

It was lovely.

I could quite happily live there! It was literally a last minute booking and so was a bit of a gamble but luck was on my side on this occasion. It was comfortable and homely with a modern twist belying it's exterior looks. Quiet with dog walking routes available on the door step. I only have praise for it and the owners. Jon was on hand when needed and was both helpful and knowledgeable about the local area. I'd never have known about the Spitfire wing weights that were looking at me every day had he not told me. Will definitely be going back.

On arrival we were greeted by our host John who was very friendly and helpful.

The property was very clean and comfortable especially the lovely big bed.There was a welcome pack consisting of milk ,biscuits ,chews for the dogs ,a bottle of beer and a bottle of Prosecco. There were lots of walks for the dogs. The enclosed garden was also good as we could let the dogs out safely. The furniture and fixtures were of high quality and the log burner was really welcome on the cool nights. We had a very relaxing break and would definitely return.

We loved your cottage and thoroughly enjoyed our time there.

Our only issue was the fact that sykes state that the pub is 0.5 miles away and in the cottage brochure it states that it is 1.4 miles away which if you were dressed up for an evening out it would be too far to walk. However it did not effect our holiday and had the best time.

Beautiful little cosy cottage Very tranquil and quiet place Nice touch with the Prosecco and real ale on arrival Nice walks from the door step Would definitely recommend it and will be coming back I never asked the owner for one but could do with a hoover instead of a dust pan and brush just to keep on top of it with 2 dogs after a wet muddy walk Every thing else was perfect

We were very impressed in every way.

Definitely hope to return if staying in Lincolnshire again. The property deserves it's 5* reviews and wonderful hospitality from the hosts.

Swallows Nest is beautiful inside and out.

It has everything you need to have a relaxing stay in peace and quiet. It is ideal for walking right from your doorstep and the log burner is perfect after a day out in the winter weather!

A true gem, its not often you get the complete package of living and sleeping comfort combined with superb taste in fixtures and fittings.

Warm and cosy even in the midst of Storm Isha which lashed around our snug protected environment with the stove burning away. The most comfortable bed and pillows I have come across away from home in years and this was a perfect home all on one level for us with some mobility issues. Parking just yards from our front door and peace and birdsong everywhere - would be back if needed to be in the vicinity without any hesitation.

We had a lovely stay over Christmas & New Year.

The cottage was immaculate and had everything we needed. However I would suggest that maybe a portable heater for the living room (for colder days) as the little electric heater in there doesn't really heat the room up if you haven't got the fire going, especially first thing in the morning. Very peaceful & quiet location but within easy reach of lots of amenities and with lots of lovely walks right on the doorstep. Thank you to Vicki & Jon for allowing us to stay in your lovely cottage, would definitely come back.

We needed a local property to stay at for a week in between moving out & moving into our new house, Swallows nest was a real home from home, we really appreciated the week to relax with the log burner roaring and the owners ensuring we had a plentiful supply of logs, the cottage had everything you could ask for, nice surprise treat of a bottle of beer & a small bottle of wine, milk left for us in the fridge, spotlessly clean.

We really felt at home. Thanks to the owners

We had an amazing time, the cottage was lovely and cozy with great facilities and super comfortable.

Lovely walks around for the dogs, we loved it!

We have just returned from a wonderful week in Swallow’s Nest.

A really cosy property, well equipped with all you need for a comfortable and restful break. Good walking can be found right from the doorstep which was great for our four legged VIP and once back she loved nothing more than curling up in front of a roaring log burner. Hosts Vicki and Jon were very accommodating and eager to ensure our stay was a memorable one. Swallow’s Nest is now very much on our list of favourites and we would definitely return if holidaying in the area again!

Lovely property, lovely hosts, lovely area for dog-walking - perfect all round.

We were delighted to be the first guests! Would happily recommend.
