  • "We had a lovely stay in Chippers cottage with our two dogs."

    Plenty of room and very peaceful. The cottage has everything you need for a perfect stay. Woodhall Spa is close by with some lovely shops and plenty of eateries.

  • "We really enjoyed our stay at Chippers."

    It was in a lovely, peaceful location with a long drive and large garden and also an enclosed area just outside the back door. The Kitchen was very well equipped and we found everything we needed. There was an extensive choice of cooking pans and dishes. When we arrived there was a lovely hamper and flowers on the table as well as a bowl of fruit. Upstairs lovely large towels and complimentary toiletries. We thought Chippers had a lovely feel to it. I have only given it 4 stars as there was a very small fridge/freezer which we found difficult to access as very close to the floor and meant a lot of bending down which was difficult for us due to various health problems. Quite a lot to see in the area although usually meant a short drive. We couldn't find any good walks straight from the door. Woodhall Spa is very nice and a short distance away. There was a useful OS map but could have done with a few up to date tourist leaflets about local area. Would recommend.

  • "Could not fault."

    Excellent location and cottage quiet and comfortable. The hamper upon arrival meant no immediate trip to buy food. Flowers and fruit were also a welcome addition. It was also great to not have a list of laminates giving instructions on 'do this on Tuesday' etc.. The cottage was warm and welcoming and it was also great to enjoy the peaceful garden. The wooden garden furniture was excellent quality but maybe some comfortable garden chairs to really enjoy the garden would be nice. Will most certainly recommend and will return again.

    The welcome basket was delightful. Will was on hand if we needed anything. Lovely dog walks straight from the door. The only slight thing was I found the beds very hard, but I have a bad back and I'm planning another visit so it can't be too much of a negative. I would recommend this beautiful cottage to anyone.

  • "Chippers is in a peaceful location not far from Woodhall Spa."

    Excellent parking spaces and lovely gardens with stunning views to the rear of the property. Lots of birds giving glorious birdsong morning and evening, and huge sky views for starry nights. I was greeted by a generous welcome hamper, which included lovely fresh flowers and fresh fruit. The cottage itself has all the amenities needed, some maintenance is needed but when I raised any issues with the hosts they were very quick to respond and were very lovely about it. In fact the hosts are a lovely couple, friendly and welcoming. The house is cleaned thoroughly but has had dog visitors which has left the inevitable persistent dog aroma which may be a struggle for guests with pet allergies.

    The owner is very friendly. Great base for travelling to Lincoln and the Lincolnshire coast. A lovely warm and welcoming cottage. Pet friendly with a large outdoor space for the Dogs to run around. Quiet village location. There are Bee Hives in the field behind so just beware of them. A dishwasher would be a great addition to a kitchen that has most of the stuff you would want. A couple of things that need updating but are still ok to use (eg The Over Bath Shower ) All in all a great place to stay. We will definitely be looking to stay again.

    The cottage was spotlessly clean and the owners had gone to a lot of trouble to make us feel very welcome, there were a number of local gifts for us to enjoy during our stay. One thing we really enjoyed due to the location of the cottage in the countryside, due to virtually zero light pollution, the skies were brimming with bright stars, wonderful. We had a fabulous time and hope to return one day, many thanks.

  • "We have just returned home from a fabulous week!"

    This holiday was a trip down memory lane for me and it certainly gave me back some fabulous memories! Our stay at Chippers was great! Very well equipped property it had everything we needed! I have a few negatives to add but the positives are so good it wouldn’t stop me staying again! My only complaints are : the cleaning could of been a little more spot on! I noticed a fair few cobwebs around the house, like you do in every house but maybe I’m just picky, the air fresheners in the property were either full but didn’t work or empty. This meant after being out all day we came back and it smelt very stuffy and shut up…not fresh.. The towels provided were very generous but they were towel that didn’t dry well…you know like new towels???!!! Also the toilet roll holder felt a good reach away from the toilet! Ok for me but impossible for my little one. One bedside lamp didn’t work, and the lamp in the living room wouldn’t turn on, and we had a drippy tap in the kitchen sink. These are just my observations. I know it’s a holiday home and you put up with some things as it’s only temporary accommodation and these may seem like silly comments but just little things that caught my eye! Can’t fault anything else! The garden was well kept, a lovely hamper with bread, crisps, biscuits (Thankyou) a bottle of lemonade, very much appreciated! Beds were lovely and clean. Area was lovely and quiet (we did have a big yellow eye sore skip outside for most of the week but that can’t be helped as it was for a property across the road). As I said my negative comments are not really major faults just a few little things I feel could be changed to make the property so much better and it wouldn’t stop me staying again !

  • "The cottage and gardens were lovely."

    The only negative is that there was a problem with the drain. Every time we used the kitchen sink the drain overflowed into the back yard. I phoned the helpline on Saturday morning and left a message. I expected a call back but no one called. Another issue was the DVD player came up “disc error” when we tried to use it Overall the cottage exceeded our expectations with all the extras we didn’t expect such as a filled fruit bowl and a welcome pack. We would certainly return to this cottage.

  • "The cottage was lovely and well equipped ; the welcome pack was exceptional and even fresh flowers were provided."

    We loved visiting Woodhall Spa and the National Trust property at Tattersall was well worth a visit-take a picnic.

  • "The cottage is even nicer than the photos show."

    Everything is provided and all of top quality. Even a bowl of fruit. I can only echo what others have said, the cottage is lovely. We were very lucky with the weather and almost lived in the first courtyard, the patio was good too and the garden a very good size and private. We had a lovely week enhanced by the cottage and it’s environs. The walk along the railway was enough even for a Labrador and a Breton spaniel. I would love to go again and I’m sure we will. Locals friendly too.

  • "Chippers served us very well."

    We found it well equipped, pleasantly furnished, comfortable and clean. The 'welcome pack' was the best we've experienced. With a small closed gated 'courtyard' plus a secure garden and neighbouring field it was ideal for our Labrador. Our only query with the booking was that we could find no reference to limits around arrival and departure times, so we arrived and departed at our own convenience and saw no one, so that seemed to be ok. Thank you.
