Guest Reviews
- Martin (10/5): - Excelent - fabulous facilities & excellent breakfast. The only negative was they finish serving breakfast at 8:45 even on a Sunday!! No lie in on tis lazy weekend
- Alistair (8/5): Scotland - Clean and tidy, welcoming good breakfast all at an excellent price well worth a visit.
- Verified traveler (8/5): Lincoln stay - Breakfast : could have done with more marmalade and yoghurt for breakfast. Bus stop right outside for Lincoln Well placed at edge of Lincoln to visit elsewhere
- David (10/5): One of our best stays - The guest house was great good food very very clean in a nice part of Lincoln, the owners were very friendly and made us feel at home and at ease. In all a very pleasant stay in a nice part of the country.
- Michael (8/5): Room 2 is for the ladies. - Having travelled for 3 hours beforehand, I was pleased to locate the guesthouse, and the reception was friendly. Room 2, a single room, was adequate, with few areas for improvement. Notable would be the poor digital TV reception for BBC 1, though other channels were satisfactory. Minor issues include difficulty in utilising a power socket to recharge a cellphone - the only available sockets (kettle and coffee maker) are partially obscured by the dressing table. The Bathroom was clean, and the hot water plentiful and swift. The only niggles were the toilet seat not remaining upright (not a problem for ladies) and the wash basin plug slowly leaking whilst one shaves (again, not a problem for female guests). Breakfast was excellent, and checkout most efficient. According to the sign outside, the business is up for sale.
- Stephen (10/5): Best in Lincoln - Second time staying here - we are regular visitors to Lincoln but this place is not always available; we were lucky this time. Wll remain first choice.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Lovely hotel, really friendly and helpful - Gave us a map and bus times, local pubs which the meals were tasty. Lots to see and plenty of shops.
- Anthony (8/5): - Happy to recommend. Good breakfast as well.
- Michael (10/5): Lovely guest house, excellent facilities. - What can I say other than 'perfect.' This guest house offers excellent, professional, friendly service and first class modern facilities with some additional nice touches, such as fresh coffee making facilities in each room. Parking excellent and WIFI also very good. Breakfast fantastic. I loved this place and the lovely hosts. Hope to be back.
- linda (6/5): Nice Guest House - unfriendly service at breakfast - Lovely guest house. Unfortunately, although I paid for breakfast (and had a 4 hour drive ahead of me), the dining room had a huge fish tank ( I have a fear of fish). I didnt want to make a fuss and so instead of ordering a full breakfast to take to me room (I do appreciate that hot food in rooms is not good), I ordered some toast. When the toast was brought to me I asked if it was Ok for me to butter a piece to take to my room - and was advised that no food was allowed in the room. I was so upset I didnt go into shower or anything - I had to dash so that I could leave earlier to get something to eat elsewhere. I was then questioned at Reception when I paid my bill as to what my issue was for not eating in the dining room!
- Verified traveler (6/5): A warm clean room - Apart from a rather strange welcome, access to the guest house being almost spooky in the dark, I quite enjoyed my stay, the virtues of a warm, clean room and bathroom not being lost on me. I did not have a cooked breakfast but the ones served to other tables looked good, I asked for green tea, no problem.the entrance hall is a little tired, but the room was fine
- john (10/5): Lovely hotel close to Lincoln - Despite being on the main road it was very quiet. Lots of parking available and it was spotless. Breakfast was great too.
- Stephen (10/5): Got to go back. - We got a warm welcome and offer to carry our case, there was ample space for all the guests cars on the drive and a bus stop outside. Light and spacious room for breakfast at individual tables and self service plus cooked breakfast.
- Jonathan (6/5): Useful location for Newark - Overall a very nice offering for us to use while working locally.
- Donald (10/5): - We were greeted on arrival and made very welcome.The bedroom and facilities first class.Good chose of cereals and breakfast menu.The reason we picked this guest house was it was ideally situated not far driving distance from National Trust properties we had planned to visit.
- Laura (10/5): Just what I was looking for - Great place to stop when out on business. Small, friendly, very clean, comfortable bed and fantastic breakfast. can walk to a couple of well priced pubs for food and there's a petrol station on the same road. Will stay again.
- Mike (10/5): Best Stay Yet - Great rooms, great food, friendly staff! Best place I have ever stayed!
- Verified traveler (10/5): Good guesthouse - Good guest house in a good neighborhood.Hosts welcoming and helpful
- Jan (8/5): - Visiting family for birthday celebration
- Alison (10/5): Great Guest House. - Had a lovely weekend in Lincoln which was enhanced by our stay at the Gables. Whilst not in the centre of Lincoln, it was only a short bus trip (£2.30) away. A taxi back in the evenings was £6.30 from the bus station. We stayed in room 1 which was on the front of the house, but didn't experience any road noise at night. They do provide ear plugs if you are a light sleeper....great idea. Breakfast choice was wide and the food was well cooked. We ate in Lincoln the first evening but the second tried a local pub which was fine, but be aware they only serve until 8pm. There are several eating establishments in easy walking distance. Would we stay again?......definately.
- Mike (8/5): Friendly B&B with easy access to city of Durham - This privately owned and managed little B&B is a gem. It is located conveniently in the Lincoln suburb of North Hykeham, on an easy bus route that goes straight to the heart of the ancient city, but not so close that you have to work to get out into the country and walk around in nature. The owners are proud of their work, warm and welcoming, and are happy to offer as much guidance about the area and activities as you care to learn. The room was of a reasonable size and was comfortable. The WC was larger than many we've experienced, and the shower was large enough to fit two in a rush. We thoroughly enjoyed David's cooking in the mornings and didn't miss a single breakfast.
- Charles (10/5): 5 star stay at a budget price - Excellent from start to finish. Highly recommended.
- Don (8/5): - Lots of space and a comfortable experience.
- stephen (10/5): short break - this was a stort break never been before loved it
- John (10/5): - Very clean rooms with everything you need. Owners very friendly.
- Justin (10/5): - All good, nice breakfast.
- Colin (10/5): Top Quality B&B - Lovely B&B with friendly hosts, rooms were good sized, clean and well furnished. Shower room/on-suite although a little small for some was good, with generous sized quality towels. Bed was comfortable. Breakfast was great and freshly cooked to order. The hosts made you feel welcome and would recommend this B&B to anyone staying around the Lincoln area.
- Ron (6/5): Close to city and trunk roads - Room was comfortable but very small. Some facilities nearby, City close enough for night out.
- Chris (10/5): Trip to Lincoln. - A very nice Guest House. Made to feel very welcome by the owners. Nice English breakfast, which set you up for the day. We would definitely stay there again.
- dlpl (8/5): Comfortable, well-appointed overnight accommodatio - The Gables provided us with comfortable, spotless and well-appointed accommodation. The breakfast was excellent and we thoroughly appreciated the choice of eggs benedict: a delightful change from the standard full English! We enjoyed our stay. The Gables is on the outskirts of Lincoln and the traffic into and from the historic centre of the city can be extremely heavy at some periods of the day. Allow lots of time for a visit to the Cathedral! Choices for an evening meal within walking distance are limited.
- roger (10/5): Immaculate B&B - Fantastic B and B. The house was IMMACULATE. I wish my house looked like that. Attention to detail was first class. Lovely owners. Welcomed us and coooked superb breakfast!
- John (10/5): Would use again - Everything was immaculately presented, with a friendly service. I had a good night sleep, followed by a good breakfast from an impressively extensive menu.
- M (10/5): High Class B&B - The Gables B&B is a very clean, modern eco friendly and comfortable place in which to stay. Hilary and David are very welcoming proprieters and have provided a lot of extras such as coffee machines, ceiling fans, a small fridge, microwave and laptop free wi-fi for guests to use. We had a lovely front en suite room which looked out onto the main road and was a bit noisy at times. We enjoyed beautiful and delicious cooked breakfasts. We thought it was good value for money and would highly recommend this B&B
- Kazza (10/5): Nice comfortable place to stay - We turned up late as we traveled after work, we were greeted and made to feel very welcome. The room was lovely, clean, beautifully furnished and had all we needed. The breakfast room was lovely and very good choice.
- Paul (10/5): Very Very Nice!!! - We stayed in a studio room for 2 nights in Gables House in Lincoln. The room is spacious with everything we need. Private Shower with toilet, a double bed, 2 2-seats sofa and a kitchen we can cook. The place is very clean, smart and smell nice. Hayley, the owner of the house, she is friendly and cooks very good breakfast which is include d in the room price. We are very happy stayed there. Thanks
- maynard (10/5): Very close to Lincoln - Very nice facilities and comfortable bed..AND good breakfast
- Verified traveler (8/5): Quaint B&B - Very nice B&B just outside of Lincoln. Close to major routes ad close to Lincoln itself. Great apartment option if travelling with family. Plenty of parking, pleasant hosts. Would recommend this if staying in the Lincoln area.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Weekend break in Lincoln - The accommodation was excellent. The room was very clean and the facilities were great. We enjoyed an excellent breakfast each morning. Clearly no expense has been spared in providing really comfortable accommodation. We enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend the Gables.
- Charles J L (10/5): Great! - the only thing I could find to complain about waas that there was nothing to complain about! I could not imagine a better place for a couple of nights.
- HELEN (10/5): Home from home - Stayed for two nights in March. Excellent service every home comfort has been thought of. Would definitely recommend staying here..
- Gavin (10/5): fantastic - it is Gem in the middle of Lincoln fantastic warm welcoming reception
- Jamie (10/5): Stay here - Couldnt fault anything. Everything is catered for, from the informative welcome to the farewell pack upon leaving. Room very clean and comfortable, breakfast ample and varied, hosts are quality.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Lincoln visit - Excellent facilities. Lovely clean and well appointed room. Excellent breakfast. Very helpful hosts. Eating places nearby.
- James (10/5): Lovely Hotel on Outskirts of Lincoln - What a lovely hotel and equally lovely hotel accommodation with warm and friendly staff. From the minute I arrived the hotel proprietors were helping me with advice on the hotel facilities and where to go in the surrounding area. Lincoln is a great city to explore and with lots to do and local knowledge is priceless. Although the hotel is situated on the outskirts it is ideally located to get to all the sights in and around Lincoln. I would definitely stay again and recommend to my friends.
- kathy (10/5): - It was fantastic. Very clean, awesome breakfasts. Owners were very nice and helpful.
- Mogs (8/5): excellent facilities - All needs met, the owners had thought of absolutely everything a visitor would need. But perhaps a few less notices in the rooms, hall way and dining room would make the house feel more friendly?
- Verified traveler (8/5): The gables - A nice B & B on the outskirts of Lincoln, all aspects of our stay were good or better with the exception of the road noise which in the room we had, on the front of the Gables, was extremely noisy when the windows are open for ventilation.
- MicTV (10/5): Faultless - Had a one night stop over for work. Ideal location, friendly informative staff/owners. Clean rooms, good showers and good choice/quality of breakfast. As the title says faultless.
- Dave H (2/5): Unwelcome Service - Having read the reviews we chose to book this guest house. We were travelling with a pet (dog) and whilst we knew we could not have the dog in the guest house we were disappointed to be told that we could not leave the dog in the car overnight outside in the designated car park. The Guest House owner was rude and unhelpful without any consideration for the position that we were in. Despite my best efforts we were not entitled to any refund or our hotel booking fee due to the lateness of the cancellation, additionally we had to book alternative accommodation which cost more. Overall I was very disappointed with the customer service and support from this accommodation and would not endorse them in any way.
- SuzC (10/5): it's such a lovely place to stay - comfortable, everything has been considered - perfect. great hosts
