Daisy Cottage

Maintenance and facilities issues throughout but a comfortable night sleep.

Would suggest families with young children prepare if staying here, there are hazards and not many family friendly items. Parking is great, the house is a great size. There were five of us visiting family and we all had our own spaces and never felt under each other’s feet. The downsides were numerous though, as you walk in the shoe rack was broken, the fridge in the kitchen wasn't working, it kept the food just cool, certainly not between 3-5 degrees. Our fresh milk and cream went off after two days. We had to use the other fridge in the conservatory, but that wasn't much better. The dishwasher was temperamental and isn't installed correctly, when you pull the door down it catches on the unit and moves the whole thing. Frying pans need updating, it was damaged and the handle kept moving. No proper tumblers for drinking, about 20 wine glasses but four heavy glass ones and a bunch of huge pint ones all different brands, like taken from a pub. A basket of snacks were available so was a bunch of stuff for pets - we didn't take ours, however no coffee for the coffee machine and no milk in the fridge. So the things that let you just settle in quickly we had to go to the next village to get milk. Dog hair in the kitchen also and honestly the house feels like you are just house sitting. Shoe polish and paint in cupboards (we were looking for a colander). No scissors to open packets but a "jokes for blokes" book in the kitchen. Looks like cat scratches on the back of the dining room chairs, sink plugs with foil around them as they aren't the right size and pictures of a toddler on the fridge in the conservatory. The curtain rail in the small bedroom was held on with hope and just balanced on tiny hooks and all the cutlery was a pick and mix of a bunch of sets. I found a dirty and stained hamper basket in one bedroom and a VERY lime scaled kettle in the kitchen and a dusty fire extinguisher attached by a scarf hidden under a table upstairs. The lampshade in master bedroom on the left side is broken and hanging off and on arrival there was an old dishwasher tablet in the dishwasher, still in plastic packaging - clearly the previous user thought they were biodegradable and it wasn't picked up by the cleaning team. Just needs a bunch of updating, some consideration for young family needs and the basics done right I would much rather tea, coffee and milk, perhaps even some Lincolnshire plum loaf to settle us in that a basket of junk food with a few weeks left on most of it. My father in law had them, but the rest of us didn’t touch them. No kitchenware for children, bleach and cleaning products in lower, open cupboards throughout, not ideal for curious little ones. Blinds are old and dirty in conservatory and a sun-bleached note on the side staying they will sort it asap. There are also a bunch of touch lights upstairs and none of them work. Check in and out could have been better, you had to ring the owners for the code, but their signal was temperamental and I had to ring them again on check out for the code again to put the key back. Not much in terms of time, but after a 4 hour car journey waiting for an answer is not the same as just having it texted or emailed to you. On a lighter note, beds are soft and the road outside is quiet, the garden is a great size and the village of Scopwick has a lovely local pub, play park and village walks.

In general the property was good.

There is always a but the conservatory was a mess, the blinds were broken knotted strings, broken chains and a lot of the Slats had staples in them to keep them together. Very unsightly and unusable. The furniture in the conservatory was very uncomfortable to sit on. The garden had some lovely garden furniture but the garden its self very over grown with a rusty bin and debris left about, needed a good tidy up. Lights on the patio did not work. These negative points spoiled the holiday for us. On a positive note the rest of the property was really nice in a good location with plenty of walks for the dog. I would re visit the property if the negative points were rectified.

What a beautiful holiday home!

There was so much space for the 7 of us, and a nice wide driveway to park my 9 seater van safely off the road. The property was very well appointed with everything we needed and more for a comfortable stay, from complimentary toiletries, to laundry and dishwasher essentials and the fabulous welcome basket with treats for all the family. The area itself is lovely and quiet, and we enjoyed sitting out in the garden. The basket in the living room with pamphlets of local attractions and places to eat was a great addition. We particularly enjoyed the Greek menu at the Royal Oak around the corner, and The Red Lion at Digby who serve huge portions of lovely, home cooked favourites. The reclining sofas in the lounge were super comfortable and a big hit with all the family, especially my Mum, who has recently undergone a knee replacement (the spacious downstairs bedroom with ensuite was a big deciding factor for us for this reason too) We had the best week away in Daisy Cottage and won't hesitate to return in the future. Thank you!

Four of were staying for a short golfing break.

Excellent facilities for us with a bedroom each and a comfortable lounge. Location was very convenient for local courses and Woodhall Spa.

The bungalow is great.

Large space. Enjoyed the area and exploring Lincoln (20 minutes) and the coast (1hr journey). The disapointment was the cleanliness of the kitchen. Oven /cooker needs a deep clean due to the smell . (We did not use it!) and we could not use the toaster because of the cleanliness of that also. We brought one ourselves to use. It just needs replacing. We also had no where to sit in the kitchen. Large space. Just needs some stools to be able to sit at the island.

The accommodation was comfortable.

We had leak from bath upstairs which meant couldn’t use bed downstairs so had to sleep on sofa. Owner was quick to sort next day when house manager and plumber fixed the issue. It was something that owners couldn’t have foreseen. Owner gifted us bottle of fizz and chocolates and offered us extra night but we couldn’t stay. The Cottage was comfortable but but like previous reference states could do with some TLC both inside and outside back garden this would lift the property right up. It didn’t retract from our stay as we enjoyed it but I would recommend the TLC. The area was perfect for lovely walks for us all and our dogs. Please don’t be put off by the comments as would still recommend. Keith and Bev and family

Before we arrived at Daisy Cottage we were warned that the cleaners may not be finished, through no fault of their own and when we arrived they were very apologetic but had nearly finished their work and would be leaving very soon so we could enjoy our holiday.

Daisy Cottage itself is spotless and has a very well equipped kitchen. A lovely dining room and comfy sitting room and beds, We had a very relaxing holiday, taking short walks in the sunshine to the very friendly local pub and along the beck, but mostly we spent our time in the conservatory or sitting in the the lovely garden listening to the birds and hearing the distinctive sound of a woodpecker.

Daisy Cottage was the perfect location for the weekend away and a very reasonable cost.

The contact before our arrival was good, with important information and updates given, The cottage itself is very homely, has plenty of crockery and pans, and the are sofas comfortable, though perhaps not enough seating if the cottage was fully occupied as per bed space. The things we would have liked which were absent were a washing up bowl, mirrors in the bedrooms (none in the main bedroom upstairs, just one in the ensuite) which would be good to have one for doing hair/make-up. A radio in the kitchen or dining room would have been nice too. We were told we could go through the back garden to get to the lane at the back but couldn't find a key (well we did on the last day, on top of the fridge in the conservatory) and couldn't find a way through from the front. It's a very clean and cosy place but the property is at the point where it could do with some timely maintenance and TLC, some of which will prevent further expense/issues - such as the dishwasher door catches on the kickplate in the kitchen and it falls off, the boiler looses pressure within 4 hours (the water must be going somewhere) and has to be topped up to get heating (which we did tell the cleaner) and there were blinds that didn't work in the conservatory (first mentioned in a review in July 2024) and bedrooms, broken curtain rails held up by string (the owner told me they were aware of one and waiting to fix it) and curtains which were no longer gathered and held up by a few hooks in the sitting room. These are little points, and perhaps picky (and we did have a good weekend) but it's the difference between an ok, good and excellent rating.

Myself and 5 others had a fantastic NYE getaway here at Daisy Cottage.

It had everything we needed, big, well equipped and some lovely touches such as a mini hamper for the dogs and a very welcomed hamper for the humans! I had a courtesy text/call from Jacqui the night before who was extremely helpful with tips and tricks for the house itself and places around there to visit. We all had such a wonderful time and would definitely recommend!

We found the property comfortable but some issues compromised our overall rating.

a) Too much personal clutter. Although we appreciate this is a personal perspective we found for example multiple part used personal care left in the bathrooms. b) Issues with maintenance and repair, dead light bulbs not replaced, missing rail at the top of the stairs, difficulty opening door to conservatory door.

Enjoyable stay within a sleepy village with easy access to Lincoln and surrounding towns.

Village pub excellent serving Greek and English food every night. Cottage very spacious and comfortable in a quiet position includes a traditional dining room and lounge area.

Really enjoyed our stay at Daisy Cottage.

Cottage was lovely and clean on arrival. Everything is available to make it home from home. Communication with owner was excellent.

The cottage was perfect for our needs, couldn't have wished for anything more!

The village pub was also a great location for evening meals :)

Great stay!

Beautiful home, so much room. Spent a lot on time in gorgeous garden. Owners were very accommodating to our needs. Highly recommend.

We had a good week at Daisy Cottage.

It was clean and very comfortable. The garden could do with some TLC but it was ideal for the dogs, being totally secure. There are walks from the house and Scopwick is a lovely village. We would book again.

Lovely stay at Daisy Cottage which was clean and comfortable throughout.

Kitchen was excellent and everything you could need was provided. Dogs loved the garden and we sat out every day using the really good garden furniture. Royal Oak 5 minutes walk was lovely for an evening drink and food was top class. Would highly recommend Daisy Cottage for a relaxing holiday.

Our stay at Daisy Cottage was amazing.

Loved the little touches like the Welcome pack with Christmas goodies and toiletries in the bathrooms. It was decorated for Christmas and was very clean and warm. Would highly recommend as the location was brilliant for walks and even a trip to the Seaside. Thank you for a wonderful stay

Really enjoyed our stay, just wish it could have been longer.

This is a wonderful property, warm, cosy, clean and very comfortable.

Great communication with the owners. Roms were beautiful and everything that was needed was provided. We will book again!

Dasiy Cottage was very warm, comfortable and well equipped.

Lovely conservatory. We really enjoyed our stay as there is lots to do in the area, especially some nice walks. Only comment was that some bigger, thicker bath towels would have been nice.

Everything was as described and expected.

The cottage was in a lovely position with great open views, a good sized, enclosed garden which would be lovely in the summer especially as there was a bbq available to use and outdoor furniture. It was very comfortable and cosy. There were a lot of books, games and dvds to keep everyone entertained. Would have been good to have some guides or local history books of the area as internet and phone signals were a little hit and miss. Can highly recommend the local pub for Sunday lunch. Great communication with owners before and afterwards too.

We have just returned from a few days away in Daisy cottage and can only say Fab U Lous….

. Daisy cottage is just perfect. It is really comfortable and cosy. Spotlessly clean. It also had every piece of equipment in the kitchen you may need. There was a lovely welcome pack. Beds were so comfortable and I slept so well. I really didn’t want to come home. A trip to the Royal Oak is a must! The food is to die for.

Just returned from 9 nights at Daisy Cottage.

We really enjoyed our stay. Lovely comfortable lounge and separate dining room. Loved the sunroom which is ideally placed next to the kitchen. The cottage is extremely well equipped. Very comfortable beds. The enclosed garden was perfect. Fell in love with Scopwick which has numerous dog walking routes.
