I want to give one example. In the room there were two wet towels of ours. The cleaner left us a note saying, I washed and dried your towels; they’ll be waiting for you at reception. A small gesture that made me go wow

I booked Lincoln Cottages for two weeks and the moment I arrived Ken and Moncia greeted me and made me feel very welcome indeed, and not only that, it was like coming from one home to another - they were fabulous and ensured, I had the best stay and helped me make amazing memories with friends that are like family who I do not see very often with me living in the UK 😀 The staff they have got working for them are amazing, friendly and helpful and always cleaning your room/garden on a daily basis and if you need them for anything at all, they will always help 😀 My accommodation was perfect and well maintained. The bed was super comfy and even bonus as air con was right above, especially on the warm days. TV was good even though I hardly watched as I had plans more or less each day/night with friends 🧡 The bathroom was great size, and the shower was spot on but could never go wrong as signs around advising what to do and if issues to let management know, who got straight onto things 😃 The kitchen was perfect and fully equipped, but if I needed something to help me cook, Monica/Ken was at hand to help and supply the cockery/utensils. The pool area was fabulous and great spot for relaxing and topping up your tan but you are not alone as their two cutest fur babies Tia & Chubby, will join you for a cheeky swim and want you to fuss and play with them - they keep you entertained but are the most sociable/friendly dogs who just want attention and cuddles all the time 😀 All I can say is that I would 110% recommend staying at Lincoln Cottages as it's like being at home when you are away from home. Thank you, Ken & and Moncia, for absolutely everything, and one day, I will be back for another outstanding visit.

    The warm welcome from the family and staff was top tier. the garden view its the same as the pictures. Simple breakfast was nice, and I loved how the kids' host played with my daughter. This showed how welcoming the host family is.
