  • "GREAT CHRISTMAS AND NEW YEAR We stayed at the stable over Christmas and new year and had a wonderful time."

    The cottage was spotlessly clean and lovely and warm. We had everything we needed the kitchen is well equipped everything I needed to make Christmas dinner. Lovely comfy bed. For info there is a fridge with just an ice box although John kindly put us another fridge in the porch given the length of our stay. We had champagne and mince pies on arrival which was greatly appreciated. Dave was very helpful and made sure we were ok he is only a few minutes away if we had needed him. There is a beautiful pub and a shop in the village which is an easy half hour walk away. Overall a lovely stay would highly recommended.

    Owner friendly & helpful. Lack of broadband could be an issue for some. Just needs little tlc. A couple of bulbs were blown. Size of the toilet/bathroom was a bit of an issue as it's very small & the toilet didn't fully flush easily. Great for a short break.

  • "The stable was overall clean, shower room had slight urine smell and would benefit from a mat or mop as floor remains wet and toilet use after results in wet feet."

    Had to repair shower head, otherwise accommodation was very pleasant and would book again, could benefit with wifi. A very pleasant stay.

  • "This is a lovely cottage let down badly by the bathroom."

    Toilet did not flush properly. It was a wet room - not mentioned in your listing - but not really big enough for a wet room. Shower curtain not suitable. Light bulb in lamp in lounge not working. We did have a lovely stay but cannot give 5 stars. Will not return due to the problems with the bathroom. Only suitable for a couple of nights. Would not recommend for more than that. In a lovely location though.

    The location was so peaceful, and the owner was very friendly and let me walk our dog in his fields. The property was very clean,and light inside. We were not very far from the shops. And the next-door neighbour was very friendly.

    Everything we needed with ample parking space and privacy. The bathroom however was a little small with a very quirky shower with very poor flow until I fitted a brand new missing shower head washer. Everything else was superb. Thanks

  • "Lovely cottage in a beautiful setting."

    Well maintained and comfortable, with everything needed for our stay. Patio area and enclosed garden were perfect for us and our dog. Very quiet, just the odd car passing at the back of the property. Nice walks through farmers fields, all clearly signposted. There is a little shop and a pub (can’t comment as didn’t use either), about a mile and a half from the cottage. Nearest village, Horncastle has a Tesco and co-op, some quaint little shops and cafes. Skegness and Lincoln town are worth a visit if you don’t mind travelling a bit further out.

  • "This is a perfect little switch off getaway."

    It was clean and comfortable with all we needed. Beautifully quiet, and surrounding beautiful views. All we needed was there. 25mins from Skegness Beach and plenty to visit or equally as easy to stay put and turn off for the weekend! It's a little.closer to the main house than the pictures and did feel a little overlooked but we never really saw anyone. It could do with maybe a little welcome pack? Just to say Hi and tell you what's where and where to leave your rubbish at the end as this wasn't clear to us anywhere. Secure garden was the main reason for our hire, there were two holes in the fence that one of our dogs did find, so this needs checking (We really apologise as its just occurred I forgot to remove the garden chairs from the fence!)

  • "Absolutely loved our stay at The Stable."

    It is a nice quiet area with just a road and only a house next door. Found the garden was fenced in well for our dog. Great area for seeing planes and star gazing! The toilet and shower is okay for just a week's use for 2 people and the fact that it didn't have Wi-fi didn't bother us at all. Although I believe the owner is putting it in in the future. We will definitely be back.

  • "A great property in a very rural location with great views and walks around."

    Ideal for 2 people. Would recommend if you are looking for a quiet location yet only 5 minutes off a main road. Installing wifi would be good although mobile coverage (Vodafone and O2) were good. Property is generally well equipped although we did suggest a few things to the owner. Would certainly consider staying there again if we were looking for accommodation in the area. Wine, beer and fresh milk on arrival was a nice touch.

  • "Thoroughly enjoyable 3 night stay, designed superbly to allow for generous living space and combined kitchen/diner."

    Bedroom is again a great space that allows easy movement. Bed itself has top quality mattress and bedding, both myself and wife slept really well and has added advantage of view through patio doors out across garden and surrounding farmland. Property is on a road (mainly tractors and locals taking short cuts). No windows on this side of “the stable” to really interfere with your stay. Owner lives next door at the farm and is very pleasant and approachable if needed. Overall will return as in a great spot to visit the Lincolnshire coast and also visit my daughter, so in law and family in Norfolk. Thank you

  • "We enjoyed our stay at the recently renovated Stable."

    It was comfortable and warm and nice and light throughout. The kitchen appliances were very good and there were 2 good quality TV's too. The seating and bed were nice and comfortable. The bathroom did the job although to use the shower meant removing toilet rolls etc as the whole room gets wet. One of the main reasons for choosing this location was to accomodate our dog with the large garden being a big attraction. However we found that the garden isn't fully secure. The back of the garden is only fenced off from the adjacent field by a plastic mesh fence. This wasn't fitted properly and most of it wasn't at full height and our dog easily got over it and ended up in the field. This could have resulted in him getting onto the main road. After this incident we had to have him on a lead which wasn't what we wanted for him. A more sturdy and higher fence is required to make it secure. Also the gate and metal railings could do with mesh being fitted as any dog smaller than ours could have squeezed through, ours nearly did! If those small things were sorted it is a lovely garden for a dog to be in. The only other small things I would suggest would be wi-fi and a few more basic kitchen items such as oven trays and gloves. We did enjoy our stay and would consider coming again if we felt the garden was safe for our dog. The bottle of wine and can of beer was a nice welcome upon arrival.

    Thank you for your feedback. We have taken your comments into account and are in the process of making the garden secure for dogs. We are also looking into adding Wi-Fi to the property. We are glad you enjoyed your stay. Property Owner

The property

The Stable is a charming cottage that lies on the outskirts of Mereham Le Fen, Lincolnshire.

This romantic little stay offers pet-friendly accommodation as well as a lovely location deep in the Lincolnshire countryside, with proximity to RAF flight paths for those with historical interest. Upon entering, you will be greeted by a spacious open-plan area, thoughtfully laid out to include a kitchen, dining, and sitting areas.

The kitchen is well-equipped with everything you need to prepare delightful meals for the two of you, which can be enjoyed at the dining table.

Or, why not take the meal outside and fine al fresco style in the garden while taking in the summer rays.

After dinner, retire to the sitting room, where you can relax and unwind in front of the Smart TV and keep up on your favourite shows even while away! Step outside to the enclosed front garden, where you can enjoy the fresh air and tranquillity of your surroundings.

The garden features a well-maintained lawn and a patio area complete with furniture, perfect for enjoying a morning coffee or that soothing glass of red. When sleep starts to beckon, make your way to the spacious king-size bed which will guide you to your rest under the fresh linen.

When the thirst for exploration kicks in, the local area has an abundance of attractions.

Seek leisure and excitement in equal measures at the Central Park and Skatepark in Boston, or delve into history and architecture admiration at the famous St. Botolph's Church.

A short drive takes you to the vibrant resort town of Skegness, where a visit to Skegness Pier promises a classic seaside experience; and don't forget to encounter marine life at the Natureland Seal Sanctuary and the Skegness Aquarium.

Venture further afield to the historical National Trust - Tattershall Castle; be prepared to be fascinated by its rich history and return home with memorable stories of yesteryears.

No visit to Lincolnshire is complete without a trip to the Battle Of Britain Memorial Flight Visitors Centre, an ode to British war heroes.

For those seeking adrenaline thrills, a trip to Just Wake - Tattershall Water Park offers water sports and leisure activities in abundance.

However you plan your itinerary, The Stable ensures a pleasant retreat to return to at the end of each adventurous day.
