Howell Barn

This beautifully renovated barn, once used to store apples from the neighbouring orchard, is now a spacious holiday retreat perfect for holidays among family or friends. It’s set deep in the Lincolnshire countryside, so you’ll likely spot lots of wildlife– including deer grazing in the paddock next door, if you’re lucky.

You’re perfectly placed for exploring the area, with a nearby shop and pub serving food (1.5 miles). Sleaford (5.2 miles) has handy train links along with shops and eateries, while the elegant village of Woodhall Spa (14.5 miles) is home to welcoming cafés, a Lido at Jubilee Park, a golf course and 1920s cinema.

You may like to visit Tattershall Castle (10.5 miles), a striking National Trust property famed for its dramatic red-brick towers and fascinating medieval history. Horncastle (19.5 miles), with its antiques and market-town charm, also makes a lovely afternoon out.

Step inside to a spectacular double-height glass atrium hallway that sets the tone for the rest of the property. To the right, gather altogether in the large open-plan living space, which has comfortable seating, a Smart TV, French doors opening to the front garden and a generous dining area.

The chic kitchen is centred around a breakfast bar for leisurely mornings and evening drinks. You’ll also have a utility and boot room with a washer/dryer.

On the opposite side of the hallway, a second lounge gives your group even more room to spread out, complete with another Smart TV, a pool table and bi-fold doors leading straight onto the terrace. Head upstairs, to find six thoughtfully arranged bedrooms – four double bedrooms, three of which have en-suite facilities, plus a twin room with an en-suite bathroom.
