The Old Station Yard (cottage)

Home description

A real haven of peace & tranquillity amazingly just ten minutes drive from the hubbub of Cleethorpes or the more traditional, quiescent appeal of Louth, The Lincolnshire Wold's capital market town....

Audrey, Cygnus & Ibis are our superb reproduction railway carriages in brake van style. Each sleeps four as a minimum and provide an alternative, innovative and quite simply amazing holiday choice in Lincolnshire. A bespoke holiday arena for the more demanding holidaymaker ideal for large family gatherings or groups.

A new horizon greets you around every corner with lush green fields bordered with golden primroses, or cheerful poppies. Smells, sights & senses to provoke that feeling of freedom far from the madding crowd. The wildlife scurrying at the road edges and across fields or the birds swooping and hopping the pretty hedgerows. The vista of the big skies and the whispy clouds set against the backcloth of the deepest blue sky.

The Heart of England / Peak District / Lincolnshire region

Lincolnshire is host to an abundance of activities! Endless walking and cycling routes, including the Viking Way and 125 miles of the Sustrans Hull to Harwich Cycle Route which passes through Lincolnshire joining two ports, hence its popularity with visiting cyclists from overseas.
Rich in aviation history, home to old and new – 617 squadron Dambusters and the Red Arrows. Colour and soft scent cover the county as 150 Gardens and Nurseries open for the season. Scattered throughout the county are many hidden treasures including one of the original four copies of the Magna Carta, housed in Lincoln Castle, the birthplace of the poet Alfred Tennyson and the former home of Sir Issac Newton. Another must, is sampling a ‘Taste of Lincolnshire’, fresh local produce for breakfast, lunch or dinner. Lincolnshire's weekly markets are thriving and lively. Most shops are still family businesses with skills and recipes handed down through the generations – do try Lincolnshire sausages, plum bread and stuffed chine.

Louth area

Ideally situated for cycling, walking, fishing and golf – visitors will enjoy the range and diversity of activities and attractions that abound in close proximity. Visitors will witness amazing views, stretching out to Lincolnshire’s rolling Wolds and to Pleasure Island less than 6 miles away in Cleethorpes.

With so much going on in the area one could never be short of things to do! A real haven of peace & tranquillity amazingly just ten minutes drive from the hubbub of Cleethorpes & Grimsby & the more traditional, quiescent appeal of Louth.
