Overview
Nestling on the edge of Lincolnshire's Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty is The Old Station Yard, a hidden holiday gem comprised of The Station Masters House and 3 pretty Reproduction Railway Carriages. Highest quality, unique choice of destination!
The Station Masters House is exactly as the name would suggest and steeped in the character and history, befitting of such title.
The unusual layout, additions and extensions over the years make it deceptively spacious. With a master double bedroom and 2 twin bedrooms on the first floor and another twin room on the ground floor, it sleeps up to 8 in comfort and possibly 10 with a little imagination.
The kitchen, interestingly having two windows directly overlooking the Lincolnshire Wolds Railway Station!, has all the usual mod-cons as well as laundry facilities and all the pots, pans and utensils you could wish for in a self-catering property! Together with a real log fire in one lounge, patio doors and a dining area in the other, central heating throughout, and two bathrooms - the lack of home comforts is not an issue!
Our Railway Carriages - Audrey, Cygnus and Ibis - are romantically named after carriages on the Orient Express.
Timber flooring and beautiful brass fittings complement the warm brown and cream decor, giving a cosy, quaint yet modern ambience.
Centrally heated throughout, a comfortable lounge area with stylish leather corner suite and satellite TV, a dining area with oak table and leather chairs, fitted kitchen with oven, hob, microwave and integrated fridge, fully fitted bedrooms with colour co-ordinated bed-linen, a shower room with power shower, decking area with table and benches - all designed to ensure a peaceful haven for the more demanding holidaymaker.
A most unusual accommodation rarely available, set aside the obvious Rail enthusiasts' attractions and consider far more...
The Old Station Yard truly is a real haven of peace & tranquility amazingly just ten minutes drive from the hubbub of Cleethorpes and Grimsby and the nostalgic appeal of Louth.
Disability Friendly.
Tourist Board THREE STAR APPROVED!
Available to let as single units or you can choose to hire 2, 3 or all 4 units to accommodate those larger gatherings.
We have a bouncy castle available to hire for the children and a BBQ hut with a Buschbecke barbecue and group dining area on site.
Why not hire one of our cycles during your stay and explore the beautiful Lincolnshire countryside at a more leisurely pace?
For a ride that's a little more unusual, take out one of our tandems, or try your hand on one of our custom Penny Farthings!!

Important Notice : Avoiding Fraud
It's rare, but some helpful hints to watch out for with regards to fraud:
- It is important to NEVER wire funds or use/employ other fund transfer mechanisms such as western union: Always use a credit card to protect yourself against fraud. If owners pressure you into providing a deposit or refuse to accept credit cards, there is a high probability that this is a scam.
- If at all suspicious of fraud, ask to see their website, or any other literature they can provide or send to you. Ask them for contact details for guests who have previously stayed on their property insisting on telephone numbers. Be suspicious of emails that originate from free email services (yahoo, hotmail, gmail, etc)
- Research the property thoroughly on the internet to see if there is any history or mention of scams associated with the property.
