Home Farm & Lodge

Absolutely tranquil spot , beautifully maintained gardens with seating areas , lovely warm welcome , arrived early not expecting to get the key but as the room was ready we were able to check in . Room was spotless rustic but modern , super comfy bed , little kitchenette with milk coffee all sorts of tea provided. Little tray of snacks provided peanuts biscuits and little chocolates , lovely touch. Fruit bowl and bottled orange juice and water also provided. Extra bonus was the restraunt next door , food was fabulous , we did pop in to book a table as it does require reservations .When we are back in the area we will definitely book again.

Home Farm & Lodge is a wonderful place to stay. The room was spacious with everything we needed, including a kitchen area with kettle, microwave, toaster & a very well supplied fridge! There was a corner sofa, coffee table & TV at one end and a small breakfast table with high stools in the centre and the comfortable king size bed at the other end. The continental breakfast contained everything we could need, plus lots that we didn’t use. (Cereals, porridge sachets, a loaf of bread, jars of jam, honey & marmalade & biscuits & peanuts). In the fridge were yoghurts, fresh milk, fresh fruit, orange juice & butter as well as a carafe of chilled water. All very well thought out. The bathroom was lovely and all toiletries were from a sustainable company in refillable containers. There’s a lovely garden area with table & chairs which, unfortunately we didn’t have enough time to enjoy. Kerry & Richard were the perfect hosts & nothing was too much trouble. We will definitely be returning.

Another wonderful weekend at this property. The room was quirky, comfortable an clean, the hosts couldn’t be more welcoming. The breakfast kids provided, gluten free, were varied and more than generous. Beautiful gardens to explore, and a bonus of fresh eggs to buy! Will be back!

The accommodation is superb, so clean & comfortable . The d.i.y. continental breakfast was very moorish. Fresh bread fruit yoghurts etc was lovely. The owners have really got a gem of a place here. Fresh farm eggs when available & lovely gardens.

Despite living close by we like to enjoy the odd night out around Bawtry (few drinks and then onto one of the great restaurants the town has to offer). For years we would stay in the Crown Hotel. And then a friend recommended Home Lodge Farm, just a couple of miles out in the little village of Austerfield. We decided to give it a try and, wow, so glad we did. It is an absolute hidden gem. The rooms are way beyond anything you'd get in anything bar a real luxury hotel. And the little attention to detail (eco washing products, fresh fruit, bread, preserves and cereals, etc) set the place apart. If you visit then make time to potter in the gardens. You'll feel your stress levels fade away. Spotlessly clean and incredibly comfortable. The owners (Kerry and Richard) are genuine, warm hosts who seem to honestly appreciate your custom. We cannot recommend highly enough.

Booked three of the lodges as we were attending a family wedding at Bawtry Hall and did not want the busyness of a hotel. The lodges were clean, comfortable, well appointed and set in beautiful gardens where we were able to host a pre-wedding gathering. The breakfast packs were amazing with everything we could possible want and Kerry and Richard went out their way to ensure we had a lovely stay. The business has a silver Green (eco) award and the garden a wildlife award making it ideal for those who care for the environment. This is how self-catering should be done.
