Guests that stayed at this property said
Guests frequently mention the spotless condition of the property, highlighting its cleanliness as a significant positive aspect. The property is described as immaculate and very clean, contributing to the overall enjoyment of the stay.
The location is highly regarded for its amazing views and tranquillity, with the property being situated in a picturesque setting. The proximity to local attractions and the convenience of having shops and restaurants nearby are appreciated, although some guests noted the challenging access via certain routes.
Comfort is a standout feature, with guests expressing satisfaction with the restful beds, cosy sofas, and well-equipped kitchen. The spaciousness of the property ensures that even large groups find it comfortable and relaxing.
The facilities, including the hot tub, sauna, and tennis court, are frequently used and enjoyed by guests. However, some minor maintenance issues and suggestions for additional kitchen utensils and equipment slightly affect the score. The BBQ hut is a unique feature that guests love, despite the recommendation to bring a torch for the walk back at night.
The thoughtfulness of the hosts is evident in their communication and the provision of welcome gifts such as wine and chocolates, which are mentioned in some reviews. However, as these gifts are not consistently referenced, it is important to note that such gestures, while appreciated, may not be a standard offering for every stay.
About this property
Castle Top Retreat offers stunning accommodation within a charming and unique property, with an elevated position in beautiful Lincolnshire. This large, castellated structure is engulfed by glorious countryside, yet within walking distance of the village of Nettleton. This wonderful getaway is perfect for large groups of friends, family holidays or a couples retreat. Climb up to the spacious landing to find five beautifully presented bedrooms, showcasing a stylish choice of décor and neutral prints in coordinating colours, creating calm and cohesive interior spaces. All the bedrooms boast Smart TVs, and even the master bathroom features a TV built into the wall, a fabulous place to take a long hot soak with a spot of light entertainment in the background. The open-plan living room offers a minimalist design with contemporary grey coloured sofas, offset with sleek wooden flooring and a woodburner uplifting the space. Glide through to the splendidly appointed kitchen, with fitted modern appliances and a beautifully carved dining table and wooden benches adding a designer statement to the room. Throw open the patio doors and step out onto the sunny terrace, the fabulous hot tub and barrel sauna await your arrival, with plush sun loungers for you to soak up the peaceful country atmosphere with a refreshing beverage to hand. Perched on top of a hill with far-reaching views, you can admire the picturesque scenes beyond the low embattled walls bordering this incredible decked area. For local amenities, head into the quaint little village of Nettleton, or further afield, explore the city of Hull with its colourful assortment of attractions and a vast cultural feel; the Lincolnshire Wolds AONB offering walking aplenty, amongst a plethora of glorious landscape. The city of Lincoln, with its awe-inspiring hilltop cathedral and castle, home to a copy of the Magna Carta, is 25 miles away, whilst food lovers will prefer a trip to Louth with its range of artisan shops and quaint, cobbled streets and market. Other unique days out can be spent at Elsham Hall Gardens and Country Park where you'll find tranquil lakeside gardens, wildlife and a tea room, or get your blood flowing at Elsham Activity Centre, offering a wealth of adventure through paintballing, archery, axe throwing and even a giant inflatable assault course. Alternatively, head to the seaside resort of Cleethorpes with gorgeous sandy beaches, fun-filled arcades and amusements. Castle Top Retreat is a rather grand and unique property in a superb location - just what you need for a refreshing holiday escape.
