We've stayed at Ryelands twice now and hope to visit again. Our first visit was for one night in October 2008 while attending a family wedding. The second was a longer stay in April 2009 for a family funeral. Caroline and Mike were wonderful hosts and made us feel so comfortable. They were also very kind and helpful during what was obviously a difficult time for us - they went far above and beyond what might be expected in such a situation, and for that I will always be very grateful.
The house is quite new and very spacious. The guest room we were in both times was large with lovely views of fields and a pond. In April the daffodil fields were in full bloom and the views were just spectacular. I spent lots of time walking through the fields and nearby woods, a beautiful and quiet setting.
The room was very comfortable, with a lovely large bathroom with underfloor heating and a power shower with lots of hot water. Breakfasts were wonderful. Lots of cereals, toast and cooked to order fresh eggs from the farm. A delight.
Just a short walk down the road into Potterhanworth is a wonderful pub with amazing food. It's also just a short drive into Lincoln for shopping and tourist attractions. An ideal way to experience the Licolnshire countryside.
