Ticklepenny

A cosy single storey cottage which provides quality accommodation for four people. The kitchen is galley style, and is well equipped including a microwave. The dining and lounge area is a L shaped room, with television and DVD. The large bedroom is en suite with shower and bath, with one double and twin bed.

Ticklepenny is suitable for people with limited mobility as there is a ramped access to the door. Parking is available immediately next to the cottage.

Barn Owl

Barn Owl is a sympathetic conversion of a large traditional barn and still retains many of its original features. The family sized accommodation (sleeps 4-5) comprises of:

Well equipped kitchen and open plan dining and sitting area, which is both spacious and comfortable.
Ground floor bathroom which has a bath and a shower.
Feature spiral staircase leads to the first floor mezzanine landing to provide sleeping accommodation for a fifth person.

Kingfisher

Situated close to Barn Owl and Ticklepenny, it has been sympathetically converted from a traditional red bricked and pantiled farm building. It also still has original beams giving the cottage charm and character. The cottage benefits from an enclosed patio / BBQ and private parking space.

Inside you will find two bedrooms, one twin and one double, a spacious bathroom; well equipped kitchen with dining area and a comfortable sitting room. In addition provision has been made for people with limited mobility.

Visiting Austen Fen & Exploring Lincolnshire
