Open plan living space.
Living area: Smart TV, Electric Woodburner
Dining area.
Kitchen area: Breakfast Bar, Electric Oven, Electric Hob, Microwave, Fridge, Freezer, Washing Machine

Enclosed rear garden with garden furniture. Hot tub for 2 (private). 1 small dog welcome. Coarse fishing on-site. Private parking for 1 car. No smoking. Please note: There is an unfenced lake, 20 yards away.. Dad’s Shed is a lovely, spacious detached holiday home with a private hot tub to relax in and enjoy. A conservatory overlooks your private hot tub and onto the first of two coarse fishing lakes. Guests staying at Claylake Cottages have exclusive complimentary use of the lakes for fishing during their stay.
Ideal as a touring base or for a relaxing holiday with plenty to see and do in the area. Just 10 miles to the east there are miles of quiet sandy beaches to stroll along and let the sea air blow away the stresses of daily life.

Louth is also the gateway to the Lincolnshire Wolds, where you will find endless walks and cycle routes through the countryside with many good tea rooms and pubs on your travels for refreshment.

Absolutely gorgeous little place well looked after just need few bits looking at for eg.
Absolutely gorgeous little place well looked after just need few bits looking at for eg. Mattress way too soft and lots of people commenting on it already, dining chairs not very comfortable and sofa is solid. Nothing to wipe feet on from muddy garden. No external hot tub lights and a canopy over hot tub would make it brilliant to use all year as freezing rain wasn't very nice. Conservatory could have done with a heater as freezing eating dinner out there. Otherwise lovely place and if few bits mentioned above were replaced would definitely book again over and over. Very friendly hosts. Highly recommend if looking for rest and relaxation and a bit of fishing.
