Cabin by the lake

  • Peaceful adults-only cabin by a lake 25 minutes’ drive from Spalding
  • Golf 10 minutes’ drive; Baytree Owl and Wildlife Centre 25 minutes
  • No-frills kitchen and cosy living space; pubs within 15 minutes’ drive
When you’re looking for an adults-only hideaway for a couple of quiet days in the countryside, consider Hillgate Farm Lodge, on the edge of the Lincolnshire fens and surrounded by farmland. Comfy accommodation just for two is in a cabin sitting at the edge of a small and utterly peaceful lake with lots of wildlife around – go quietly about your day and perhaps you’ll spot buzzards and owls going about their business too. Inside is a double bed with all linens supplied, a woodburner in the living area for cosy nights or rainy days, a kitchen with a fridge-freezer for the milk (and wine, of course) and a spacious bathroom with a power shower. The cabin has limited cooking facilities inside, but there’s a barbecue and picnic table by the water’s edge and many pubs or restaurants within 15 minutes’ drive. If you’re heading down the self-catering route, turn to the market town of Spalding (25 minutes) or Peterborough (half an hour) for your shopping. Please bear in mind that the cabin is on a working farm, with country sounds and smells associated. There’s also a slightly unusual rural feature here too: a landing strip for microlighters.
