A lovely little place, perfect for a break in Lincoln.Really good location as long as you're aware it's at the top end of Steep Hill!Very well equipped kitchen, comfy beds. Felt like a home rather than a bland hotel.My daughter is at uni in Lincoln for 3 years so I suspect we'll be staying here a lot more.

Beautiful cottage

We had a wonderful short stay at Laurel Cottage, so close to all of Lincoln’s historic attractions. The cottage itself is simply, yet elegantly furnished. Ideal for small family trips. Catherine’s communication was friendly and almost instantaneous. Thank you for a wonderful stay.

Excellent location

This was a well maintained cottage with a lovely little courtyard. Location could not be any better for steep hill side of Lincoln so ynless you want to go to rhe modern side you dont have climb hill. Parking was so easy right outside door. Will definitely be returning to this cottage. Only downside was we couldnt get heating working properly for some reason it cane on at 2am so turned bedroom radiator off

We enjoyed our stay in this beautiful, perfectly equipped and cozy house very much. The location is ideal, close to the impressive cathedral and the castle as well as to several pubs and restaurants. The provision of a parking permit was also very helpful and rounded off the experience perfectly.
