Further Details |
Brackenborough Hall Coach House Holidays is situated just 2 miles north of Louth, an attractive Georgian market town that has managed to retain its traditional appearance and rural town ambience. It boasts the tallest parish church spire in the country and a lively market on Wednesdays, Fridays and Saturdays, as well as Lincolnshire’s only remaining cattle market on Thursdays. A particular feature of Louth are the 6 independent butchers all serving local specialties from meat and other products supplied by local farms. You must try the real Lincolnshire sausages, stuffed chine and Lincolnshire plum bread. Louth has plenty of facilities for evening entertainment, with the new theatre, multi-screen cinema, nightclubs and numerous restaurants and traditional pubs. Whether it’s taking the family to Hubbard’s Hills to picnic, play, and paddle in the river, wandering around the streets taking in the ‘olde worlde’ atmosphere, climbing the tower of the church for the stunning views or visiting Louth’s newly refurbished museum, Louth has something for everyone. Brackenborough Hall Farm is unique in this part of Lincolnshire in its range of habitats and its traditional style of estate management. The ancient parkland that has not been ploughed since the 14th century and is now managed as part of the Countryside Stewardship Scheme to encourage biodiversity is linked via field margins to the mature oak woodland and the Yarburgh beck flowing through the farm and on the northern border.

What visitors have said about Brackenborough Hall Coach House |
| |

Brackenborough Hall is truly the most wonderful self catering accommodation. From the welcome greeting you receive from the owners Paul & Flora to the perfectly equipped cottages. We would highly recommend Brackenborough Hall any time of the year. It's our 3rd visit!!!

What more can you say to something that is near perfect location, although in the country very close to Louth & coast. The appartment had every thing you could need & more, right down to dog bowls. We stayed in the Saddle Room, which had direct access into the fenced garden, much to the enjoyment of our dogs.
Owners Flora & Paul could not do enough for you, you only had to ask if you needed anything or informaton. a nice touch was that new laid eggs were available and also seasonal fresh fruit & veg.
The chance of a guided tour of the farm and site of the medival village is well worth taking.
This is a very dog friendly location and they and you have the freedom to to go anywhere you wish on their land.
This is our second visit and we will most certainly be going again.
