(Reference number: 141088)
Take off into the beautiful wilds of the Lincolnshire countryside with a stay at this Victorian farm cottage on the doorstep of a 400-acre nature reserve.
Don the home’s wellington boots to voyage through the surrounding woodlands with roaming wild ponies just moments from your door. Rejuvenate with a pampering session at the estate’s natural spa (think Cleopatra copper milk and flower baths) – a minute’s drive away. Or up the ante with archery and axe throwing lessons before a bonfire evening – it’s all going on here.
Back at home, this place is everything you’d imagined your country retreat to be. The décor is on the right side of quirky – not too minimalist, not too over-filled with antiques – and freshly cut flowers and vibrant textiles add dashes of colour. Over in the farmhouse kitchen, there’s a mighty range oven to cook up a feast. Or treat yourself to a gourmet farmhouse breakfast or afternoon tea, delivered straight to your door.
On long summer evenings, keep the night flowing in the walled garden beside the firepit. And on wintery nights, draw the curtains and hunker down for board games by candlelight. With wood stacked by the log burner, you may have no desire to venture out. But should you fancy a change of scene, South Ferriby's award-winning pub (a thirteen-minute drive) is an evening well spent.
