The beck (stream) runs next to the cottage and there is a short walk alongside the beck to get to 'town' - the shops.. All basic shops are there plus three takeaways and three pubs, one of which has a superb but not expensive Greek restaurant on the first floor. The village is very friendly and pretty. The cottage is incredibly well-equipped, down to a Yorkshire pudding tin! It's warm, the beds are comfortable and the myriad of information booklets fills two drawers. The bus to Lincoln leaves from the top of a short street just over the beck, about 100 yards walk away. This was one of the best self-catering lets we've stayed in over many years of holidays.
