Hall Yard

Burton is a quiet village in West Lindsey, close enough to Lincoln's cathedral and Georgian streets that you can reach them in minutes by car, yet far enough out to feel properly rural. Hall Yard sits here as a whole property to yourself, sleeping five across four bedrooms and one bathroom. The ground floor holds an open-plan kitchen, dining and living space with a woodburner, plus a utility room with a washing machine and tumble dryer. Upstairs are three more bedrooms—one with an ensuite shower—and a family bathroom with a bath and shower. Parking for two cars is on site, and there's a back garden with a patio and seating area.

The kitchen is equipped for cooking proper meals rather than heating ready-made food: electric cooker and hob, dishwasher, microwave, fridge-freezer. Essentials like electricity, heating, bed linen, towels and wifi are all included; the woodburner has its initial fuel provided too. A welcome pack arrives when you do. The property doesn't allow smoking. One well-behaved dog can stay free of charge. Note that there are five steps down into the garden itself, and the entrance has just two steps up.
