Willow Farm is home to Owl Cottage and a registered smallholding of fifteen acres, with ponies, free-range hens and goats. The farm is in a reasonably isolated and peaceful position in the Lincolnshire Fens with the nearest shop being around three miles away!
Locally, the area is abundant with wildlife with barn owls and herons being a common sight. It provides much opportunity for the keen angler and for those who enjoy bird watching, cycling and walking.
Whilst being an ideal place to relax, it is also ideal for families who want to explore the area and visit the attractions with Skegness being only ten minutes away offering Fantasy Island, Butlins Funcoast World, Bottons Funfair, the Seal Rescue and Gibralter point.
For those who are happy to venture a little further afield, there are many National Trust properties, Tennysons Church, RAF Museum, the Bulbfields, the Heavy Horse Centre and many other interesting places to visit.
Guests are welcome to look around the farm during their stay and children are welcome to help feed the Goats and hens and help the owners look for the eggs!
There are many good local pubs and restaurants in the area if you would prefer to truly relax and eat out. Horse riding may also be available, depending on the time of the year, as there may be children on residential Riding Holidays (beginners can not be accepted, but if you would like a lesson or a hack during your stay, please speak to the owners regarding availability).
