About this property
Leasingham 1.9 miles. Set in the charming village of Cranwell and surrounded by the wonderful countryside landscape of Lincolnshire is this beautifully refurbished coach house. The Coach House provides a wonderful touring base for couples, friends or families to come together to enjoy a relaxing retreat and to explore the surrounding area, filled with an array of things to see and do. Access to the property is gained via electric gates onto the drive, which is shared with the owner’s period property. Soak up the stunning scenery of fields and possibly catch a glimpse of the RAF planes passing by, before entering into the heart of the home, the open-plan living room, boasting everything you could need to enjoy a great self-catering experience. The sleek kitchen boasts all the essentials to cook up a family favourite dish, as well as a modern wine cooler, so that you can pop open something chilled to enjoy at the breakfast bar, whilst dinner simmers on the hob. Delight in your dish before curling up for the evening upon the plush sofa and tune into the Smart TV or flick on the Bluetooth speaker to play some of your favourite tunes as you relish in some catch-up time with your friends and family. Once the evening has drawn to a close, find the two sleeping spots located on the ground and first floor, both enjoying elegant furnishings and a refreshing aura to wake up to each morning.
The ground-floor bedroom boasts a king-size bed and a sleek en-suite shower room, whilst upstairs there is a double bedroom with an additional double sofa bed, which also has access to its own private shower room. Continuing to impress is the well-maintained garden area which you can access via the bifold doors. You will also find an elegant outdoor table and chairs, offering an alternative spot for dining after lighting up the barbecue, with the beautiful countryside setting as your backdrop. Explore the pretty village of Cranwell, where you will be delighted to find the Willows Country Store and Tea Room that serves afternoon tea and coffee but if you fancy something a little stronger wine, Prosecco and bottled beers is also available. You can pick up any essentials at the Willows Country Store. For the evenings where you do not feel like cooking, we highly recommend the Bustard Inn in the beautiful village of Rauceby just over a mile away.

Jill
The only reservation we had was the very low seating area which is difficult to get up from (as there are no alternatives with the other two chairs provided in the lounge area also being very low) this is not ideal for older people. The property is set in a charming village and is in a good location, it was very well set up to accept dogs and there were good local walks.

The accommodation was spotless and had everything you could need and more. It is situated in a lovely village location where everyone is so friendly. We arrived to a lovely welcome hamper which was a great touch. Communication with David the owner was great and nothing was too much trouble. Seeing as we had such a good time we have already booked again,. Thank you for a lovely relaxing stay in a beautiful property and even better that we could take our family pet Dennis with us
