3 Bedroom Lodge in Burton Pedwardine

Escape to this pretty lodge sitting on a peaceful vineyard in Burton Pedwardine – just 5 miles outside Sleaford. Sleeping six people over three bedrooms, it’s ideal for families or groups of friends who are looking for a rustic-chic lodge to call home while they discover the heart of Lincolnshire together. Wake up and set off to the Grade I-listed Heckington Windmill (2.5 miles) to explore the museum and treat yourself to something sweet in the tearoom. On your way home, stop off at your vineyard’s impressive tasting room to sample the wines created on site. Alternatively, head into Sleaford (5.5 miles) to visit The Hub, the UK’s largest exhibition space dedicated to craft and design. Further afield, the National Trust’s Tattershall Castle (17 miles) is a sight to behold. With its huge Gothic fireplaces and church-like windows, it dates to the 15th century and was designed to impress.

Step inside this single-storey Scandinavian-style lodge and you’ll find a surprisingly spacious kitchen/diner with warm, wood-clad walls. Cook up a storm in the compact kitchen area and host a dinner party at the dining table. Afterwards, head into the welcoming lounge and stretch out on a sofa to catch up on your favourite TV shows or challenge your loved ones on the PlayStation. At the end of the day, there are three lovely bedrooms to choose from: two standard doubles, and one double, which is reached via a ladder (like a bunk bed style), with an area to relax beneath on bean bags. A smart family shower room completes the stylish layout.

Fire up the BBQ in your enclosed courtyard garden and dine alfresco. Afterwards, treat yourself to a soak in the hot tub under the stars. In the morning, kick off your day with a game of badminton at the site’s shared courts. Private parking is available for three cars.
