Sanderlings Cottage

We arrived at Sandilands Cottage and, on first sight, were very impressed with it.

Unfortunately, we were disappointed to find that it had not been cleaned. I contacted Catherine, the owner, straight away and explained how we had found the cottage. She apologised profusely and kindly suggested that we go to The Fat Seagull in the village for lunch, at her expense, while she looked into the matter. Catherine later called me back and explained what had happened — the cleaner had been under the impression that new guests were not arriving on the 17th. It was a slight misunderstanding, which I appreciate following Catherine’s explanation. We cannot fault Catherine's handling of this and can also recommend The Fat Seagull. Once everything was sorted, we did enjoy our stay. We liked the location and thought the cottage layout was very good, one of the best we have been to. It was peaceful and quiet, with a lovely beach and nature reserve right on the doorstep. Catherine’s two dogs are absolute sweethearts — gentle giants.

This is our fifth visit to this property which is located close to the beach and has great views across the fields and is adjacent to a nature reserve.

The property is comfortable and clean and provides a great base to explore the area. Good walks for dogs and the Axe and Cleaver public house in Huttoft is well worth a visit for excellent food at affordable prices as well as the local cafe, the Fat Seagull, for a relaxing coffee.

Very comfortable and clean cottage with everything that you need without any clutter.

Set in lovely open countryside with lots of interesting wildlife, it was nice to breath the fresh sea air. The cottage is very close to the ocean and you can hear the waves from the patio. there are many fantastic walks all around the cottage and the local pubs are very welcoming. We returned home feeling very refreshed after our far too short week in Sanderlings cottage.

This is our third visit to this property which is located close to the beach and overlooks the flat farmlands of Lincolnshire.

The property offers comfortable accommodation with off street parking adjacent to the property and is ideally suited for twitchers and dog walking in the locality. Great food at the pub in the nearby village of Huttoft, (the Axe & Cleaver) very good Sunday roast as well as meals each day. The Fat Seagull Cafe in the village also offers great coffee and cake. A really great place to get away from it all.

The property needs a fridge or a new fridge freezer.

It also needs an air fryer, and a dishwasher.

Lovely cabin, very comfortable for a couple, plus our Cockerpoo.

Good use of space and everything we needed was provided. We enjoyed some beautiful walks along the promenade and through the National Trust parks. The sea is only 2 mins away and it was lovely hearing the waves breaking from the patio. The owners were friendly and welcoming but the clever positioning of the windows meant you didn’t see anyone (unless you wanted too!). Had a thoroughly relaxing stay.

This is our second visit to this superb property and again we were not disappointed.

An excellent, peaceful, relaxing and well maintained property with outstanding views across the countryside. The property is located close to the beach with plenty of walks nearby. A highly recommended property for those who wish to take a quiet break.

This was my second visit this year to Sanderlings.

I love the location for coastal walks .

Second time that we’ve visited really love the property and location

I cannot fault this accommodation - it was perfect - it's all fitted to a very high standard with quality products - so comfortable, quiet and relaxing - exactly what I was looking for and it it literally a stones through from the beach which is dog friendly all year round - I took two big throws for the bed and the sofa as I have a golden retriever who is half human and thinks it's his right to be on the furniture and so I didn't want any damage - but he felt really comfy and cool on the lovely stone flooring and on the patio which is fully enclosed - no freezer but a big fridge - definitely recommend this lovely little find

Great property in a fantastic location.

The property was exactly as depicted and is one of the best proterties we have stayed in. The views of the nature reserve are great and we spotted numerous birds of interest. The lovely beach is just across the road. The property is well thought out and decorated and dressed to a high standard. Also at last we have found an owner who can sensibly stock the kitchen with the right items and just enough of them instead of what others do which seems to be empty sveral kitchens into one leaving no space for food. Would love to return again.

Not enough crockery in the kitchen area, espevially if you wanted to cook a meal, no extra bowls, everything wa in 2's We should have been told beforehand the road in front of the cottage was being tarmaced, we left a day early in case we were blocked in by the machinery A very bad smell from the toilet was there when we arrived which filled the cottage, I suppose it was from drains or cesspit waiting to be emptied, which went eventually In all the cottage was comfortable.

But no.instructions on how to use the electric hob, but we did have a lovely time and a nice break

Amazingly perfect little getaway spot for a proper relaxation break.

The perfectly positioned cute little chalet was exactly what we needed for our week away. We had just adopted a dachshund and we needed an enclosed garden and safe space, it was exactly as described in the listing. We were attracted to the property by the closeness to the beach. We could hear the sea from the bed! The chalet itself was a perfect size for two with a small dog, the kitchen area was perfectly equipped with everything we needed for self catering, the only thing missing was a small freezer but we coped with warm gin! The sofa was comfortable and we brought our own throw for the dog, the bed was very comfortable if a little snug for two and a sausage dog haha! Again we took our own bedding down to the dog bed sharing. The shower was very much a wow, lovely decor and lots of storage in the under sink vanity. Shame there wasn’t more clothes storage but we left some items in the case. The Wi-Fi was a tad temperamental to stream a film but was more than adequate for phone usage. We walked absolutely miles along both ends of the coastal path and even landed in Mablethorpe for an icecream! We will definitely be back. I’m giving this 12/10!!

Lovely comfortable, cosy cottage.

Everything we needed, in compact, clever, neat accommodation. Beautiful views, and 2 minute walk to the dog friendly beach. Ideal location on the edge of the town, but close enough for shops and takeaways. We loved it!

As ever a lovely place to stay with both near beach access and with plenty of dog walking.

Good facilities in accommodation and friendly hosts. Now our third stay and we will be going back.

Fantastic get away everything you would need is provided and the place was spotless, a big to Mark and Christine for allowing us to stay for 3 nights definitely will be returning

Lovely homely cottage everything we needed thank you

Cosy, comfortable and extremely quiet place.

Thr cottage was above expectations and the surrounding countryside made it a plus.

Excellent siting near beach and small nature reserve.

Very dog friendly and ideal for 2+dog. Friendly hosts on site who run nice cafe/art shop in the village.

Very nice place to stay short walk to the sea front every thing you need is on hand we'll be back next year

Situated in a popular area of Sandilands is the property Sanderlings.

We had a lovely chilled stay for a week, cosy property, containing most things that you would need for your stay. Overall a well presented property, with amazing views.

A really cozy well appointed property.

It is lovely to look out on the Nature Reserve and see the amazing sunsets.The owners are really helpful and friendly.It has everything thing you need for a relaxing break.

Sanderlings cottage was absolutely perfect for our 5 night stay,it was pristine and tastefully furnished.

The views were beautiful, overlooking green fields & the nature reserve with the sandy beach just across the road.The description on your website showed everything you need to know before booking. We would definitely recommend the cottage and we hope to return next year .The enclosed patio ideal for our dog Heidi . .

Fab place

Delightful accommodation close to both beach and fields with warm and welcoming hosts.

Excellent for dog walkers and for those who are interested bird spotting. Nice cafe nearby in village.

The property was perfect for a weeks stay, as a couple with our dog.

The owners were very accommodating and friendly and the cottage was perfect. Very comfortable and homely. Wi-Fi was excellent in an area with limited phone signal. Very enjoyable stay.

The cottages has everything you can need for a self catering holiday.

Fully equipped kitchen comfy sofa and bed. Perfect for dogs as the beach is literally across the road. Great restaurant nearby called the fat seagull .We have had two brilliant holidays here.

Excellent accommodation close to the sea and beach.

Great holiday, parking out side the door, every thing we needed was there, close to the beach, shops in easy reach as well as restaurants.

Home from home, cannot wait to go back

Very friendly hosts.

Quiet location. Lovely pictures painted by Catherine in the property making it a unique experience. Ideal for birdwatchers because of the Nature Reserve immediately behind the property. Thank you for a very enjoyable holiday.

Lovely cottage, plus being so near to the beach was a plus for our dog, seeing a stoat walking round the patio are was delightful.

Pat Anderson Thank you

Enjoyed the place and its quiet surroundings, with the beach a short walk away.

A beautiful and very clean cosy cottage.

The cottage is well equipped and positioned so that you are very private. The patio area is quite a sun trap. The setting on the edge of the nature reserve was great. Very quiet. Then the added bonus of the sea and sandy beach just the other side of the dunes. Wi-fi worked really well. Thank you for a lovely weeks stay.

This little cottage has everything you need for a relaxing and comfortable stay.

The hosts were welcoming and friendly without being intrusive at all. The proximity to the beach is fantastic and the views from the windows and garden are stunning. If you are into sky watching or birdwatching you will love it. We saw some beautiful sunrises and sunsets and a lightning storm and even saw an owl fly past the kitchen window and a kestrel on the tree outside. The Wi-Fi is dicey but there is 4G signal and it didn’t bother us.

The sanderlings cottage is stunning in beautiful surroundings , so quiet and peaceful.

We enjoyed our stay so much we will definitely be returning next year .

The property was amazing, just perfect.

Only wished we could have stayed longer. Ideal for our dog too. Thoughtful extra hospitality eg dog treats, milk and a lovely cheese! Will definitely be going back there.

The property was exceptionally clean, compact, well presented and newly rennovated.

It’s away from any social amenities (pubs/restaurants) but close to the beach for walking and very quiet. However, there was no Wi-Fi as “listed” which was a major disappointment and I would not have booked this property had I have known this. The owner was awaiting a booster but this didn’t help me as I went for a long weekend to catch up with emails/friends and download and watch a few films on the “listed” Smart TV but clearly couldn’t do any of these things without Wi-Fi. There was no freezer, also “listed”, but owner did place things in their own freezer for me. I spoke with owners regarding the following and they were happy for me to list these for them. I feel sure they will address these issues and put them right in due course, but sadly these impacted on the overall enjoyment of my long weekend: * outside furniture was soaking wet (which I managed to dry overnight) as it had been left out in the elements * no hooks in bathroom to hang wet towels * no coffee table so used outdoor plastic table instead * no frying pan, scissors, kitchen roll, cling film, foil, serving spoon, slotted spoon, slotted spatula (generally lacking in utensils) * no cupboard space to store groceries * no guest information giving details re heating, recycling, check-out, takeaways, restaurants, pubs etc. * poor bedside lighting so used a torch in order to read at night Once rectified, I’m sure this will be an ideal property for a couple of nights away.
