Beds are very comfortable and the whole place is very clean and smart. We visited Lincoln, definitely worth a visit, and several NT properties. Would definitely stay again.

It is very comfortable, quiet and well equipped. The owners are friendly. We had dinner at the Five Bells in Bassingham, and are happy to recommend it.
