Revesby Estate is a family-owned and managed estate in the heart of rural Lincolnshire, perfectly positioned between the historic city of Lincoln and the coast. Shaped by over 1,000 years of heritage, the estate offers a unique stately character and an exceptional countryside setting.
From the breath-taking location of Bankside Cottage, guests can enjoy exclusive private walks, wildlife viewing points and the wow factor that comes from following the Estate’s private woodland road down to the 1800s cottage and its quintessentially English garden.
Great care has been taken to preserve the character of this period property while equipping it for modern living. The cottage is finished to a high standard throughout, combining comfort, quality and beautiful views from every room, with Revesby Estate artefacts adding to its distinctive character.
The kitchen is well equipped with modern appliances and ample worktop space, the dining room seats six, and the living room features a cosy log-burning stove. Upstairs, there is a bathroom with both bath and shower, a king-size master bedroom and two further bedrooms, storage, bedside tables and hairdryers.
The surrounding area offers something for all ages, from important WWII airfield museums and historic castles to seaside visits and countryside days out. Optional estate experiences such as fishing, estate tours and horse riding may also be available by prior arrangement, please enquire before booking and we will do our best to help create the perfect break.

We've just returned from a fantastic week at Bankside Cottage.
We've just returned from a fantastic week at Bankside Cottage. The location was a perfect get-away, in a very secluded hide-away, next to a reservoir, surrounded by nature, with magnificent walking around the area, which we all loved, and our dog is still recovering from his many walks!The cottage itself was perfect, with everything that we needed, and was spotlessly clean throughout. We spent most of our time in and around the cottage, but had a few trips to the coast, to Skegness, Mablethorpe and Sandilands, which were all less than an hours drive away.As this property is fairly new to the market, I would recommend getting in early while it's still available, as I'm sure it will soon be fully booked. We look forward to returning next year. Many thanks to the owner for checking in a few times via email to ensure all was ok.
