Barn Owl Cottage

In April 2006 Barn Owl Cottage was awarded "Walkers Welcome" and "Cyclists Welcome" by Quality in Tourism which means we provide a range of services tailored to walkers and cyclists. We provide a lockable shed with a first aid kit, bicyle repair tools and a place to dry your clothes and equipment. You can also order food prior to your arrival. Two mountain bikes are available for hire for only £ 7.50 per bike per day and this includes a helmet and lock!

The Lincolnshire Wolds have been designated an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Here you'll find country roads with little traffic but the occasional tractor and cycle paths and footpaths that invite you to explore.

The Bluestone Heath Road runs south-eastwards across the Wolds offers stunning views of the valleys below. Not far from there is Redhill Nature Reserve which is home to many species of wildlife and rare wildflowers. Another great place to visit is Snipe Dales Country Park and Nature Reserve on the southern edge of the Wolds.

On your bookcase you will find a number of maps and leaflets on local walks and cycle routes. The "Two Churches Walk" goes right passed Barn Owl Cottage. The National Cycle Route 1 runs through the Wolds if you'd like to explore the area on two wheels.
