Description from owner

Description

The Hayloft at the Manor House Stables is spacious yet cosy and provides a lovely romantic retreat. We restored the Grade II Listed stables in 2008 using eco-friendly materials and traditional methods. Natural insulation, cast iron radiators and a wood burning stove mean that the accommodation is lovely and warm throughout the winter.

The Hayloft is a perfect retreat for two but there is sleeping space for 2 more in an unusual box bed in the living area (both adults and children love it!). Other features include a luxury bathroom with a copper spa bath and a shower and small sauna. There is a Rangemaster cooker in the well-equipped kitchen and a very unusual wooden fridge! A small private garden is situated at the bottom of the outside staircase with wooden furniture, a garden swing and barbeque set.

We aim to provide a special stay for our guests - from fresh flowers, a welcome hamper, vegetables from the garden (or local shop), a loaf of bread, sausages, wine, chocolates, luxury toiletries and much more.

The Manor House Stables is ideally located in the heart of rural LIncolnshire within driving distance of the Wolds, Coast and Fens. The historic city of LIncoln is only half an hour's drive away and the lovely Edwardian town of Woodhall Spa is just 4 miles away. The Stables is situated at the edge of the small village of Martin which has a pub (which serves food). Another great pub/restaurant is just in our next village of Timberland which is walkable in just 20 - 25 minutes.

The nearest restaurant town is Woodhall Spa where you will find shops, tearooms, restaurants, Tourist Information Centre, a lovely little 'Cottage Museum' and a wealth of history ranging from the unique Petwood Hotel to the iconic 'Kinema in the Woods' - an old-fashioned cinema showing up-to- date films. Woodhall was an famous for its Spa in Victorian and Edwardian times and then became an important centre in the 2nd World War as the Petwood became the Officer's Mess for the now famous 'Dambusters'.

Getting around

Getting around Lincolnshire is really best done by car. It is a large county and many of the places to see and things to do located in the rural countryside. However, we do have guests who come here by train (nearest train station at Metheringham just 3.5 miles from here) and get a taxi here (must be pre-ordered; we also offer free collection). There are buses to Woodhall Spa and Lincoln and the train from Metheringham to Lincoln. Sometimes our guests arrive here by public transport and never go anywhere at all! They are happy to spend their time by the wood-burning stove playing board games, watching films and drinking wine! All major supermarkets (Waitrose, Tescos etc) deliver to this area so you don't need to go anywhere at all!

Interaction with guest

We live in the Manor House which is next door to the Stables. As long as you let us know your approximate arrival time we try always to be here to greet you. If this isn't possible, we do have a keylock with a code set for your visit (which we will email you). You can let yourself in and we will come and see you as soon as we get back. Any problems or questions we are easy to get hold of by phone or text.
