Cyrabel Lincoln

This is Cyrabel. It's my bungalow just outside Lincoln. It's detached, so you've got all the space around you to yourself. The garden at the back is big and enclosed. Good if you've got kids or dogs.

It sleeps six. Three bedrooms, two bathrooms. One of the bedrooms has its own shower room. Everything's on one level, so it's accessible if stairs are a problem. The front door is wide enough for a wheelchair.

Inside, it's just a normal, comfortable house. There's a living room, a separate dining room that leads into a conservatory, and a kitchen. There's a little nook with a desk and some books if you need to work. We leave the WiFi on. It's got a washing machine and a dishwasher. All the bedding and towels are included.

You're about two and a half miles from the centre of Lincoln. There's a bus stop less than half a mile away if you don't want to drive. There's a shop, a pub, and a chip shop about the same distance down the road. The pub does food.

If you like walking, Hartsholme Country Park with its lakes is about half a mile away. You can also walk along the catchwater drain from the end of the road; you get a good view of the cathedral from there.

Lincoln itself is great. The Cathedral Quarter and Steep Hill are the historic bits, full of interesting shops and places to eat. Brayford Wharf has bars and restaurants by the marina.

Being just off the A46 means it's easy to get to other places. Newark is about half an hour's drive. They have big antiques fairs on at the showground. The Lincolnshire Wolds are about 45 minutes east if you want proper countryside.

Useful links for planning: Lincoln Cathedral, Lincolnshire Trails Partnership, and National Trust Lincolnshire.

We take up to two dogs. There's a cot, a highchair, and a stairgate here if you need them. There's parking on the drive.
