Brekfast was amazing all home cooked
- john (9/5): - Friendly, Comfortable bed, Clean, Great breakfast, Excellent VFM
- Hilary (8/5): Lovely room, friendly staff, food was good - would stay again - Lovely room, facilities were fab. Was under another room and the floorboards above creaked. Unfortunately other residents were walking around until the early hours
- Steven (10/5): Absolutely fabulous - The breakfast and accommodation were top notch and I would definitely recommend The Poacher to others Nothing
- Todd (9/5): - Breakfasts were great.
Staff were friendly and helpful
The rooms were spotless The only thing that we personally found were the airfreshener in the rooms were a bit overpowering. They could well be ok for other people.
Being over 187cms tall I found the beds slightly on the short side.
- Mandy (9/5): Very friendly & welcoming, would definitely stay again. - Lovely room very comfortable,exceptionally clean. Evening meal delicious as was the breakfast.
- John (10/5): Easter break - From arrival to departure everything was great. Pippa and Mark were very helpful, room clean and everything you need is there, breakfast every morning was lovely Nothing
- Anita (8/5): - Nice clean room, friendly staff and free parking Small room, hard towels, more like a b&b not hotel
- Kevin (10/5): Great place to stay and eat, great staff - Good accommodation and food at very reasonable prices, staff fantastic
- Antony (10/5): -
- Ally (10/5): 10/10 for service, location and overall experience. I’ll be back! - I thoroughly enjoyed my stay and hope to return. Pippa was a fantastic host, accommodating and friendly with excellent communication. I felt safe and right at home as a solo traveller. My room was SPOTLESS and had everything I needed for my one night stay.
The location was ideal. Walking distance to everything you should need within the village. Next time I stay I look forward to eating an evening meal within the restaurant / pub as I never got chance to this time!
- Steve (8/5): -
- Christian (10/5): Jederzeit wieder - Super Essen, super Unterkunft, freundliches Personal, jederzeit wieder
- Mark (9/5): It was a lovely place to stay and I would stay again - The food was superb, and the decor created a charming, homely atmosphere. The room was generously sized, featuring an exceptionally comfortable bed that I believe is the best I've ever slept in, barring my own bed. Additionally, the room was impeccably clean. Thanks to its location, noise was minimal, and street sounds were barely audible. Conveniently, parking was right outside the room. I appreciated the lovely touch of having a table and chairs just outside the room in a charming private courtyard. The check-in process was rushed, and I could have had more information when I arrived and been made to feel a little more welcome. It would have been nice to have a separate lock on the room door instead of using the key to lock yourself in. Checking out, I had no idea where to leave the keys as the main property was locked, and no one was present except a cleaner I found.

Fabulous touch having real plunger coffee available in the room. Very comfortable, spacious, light and clean. Wonderful breakfast and very pleasant hosts. Creaky and noisy as people come in, go upstairs and walk around in the upstairs room above the ground floor accommodation. This is the only thing and once all in rooms, lovely and quiet, comfortable sleep.
- Cheryl (10/5): Excellent stay fantastic staff highly recommended - The owner and staff were amazing and couldn’t have been more helpful and accommodating. They made sure we had a fantastic meal when we arrived even though the kitchen was due to close early for the bank holiday. Would highly recommend and would definitely stay at the Poachers again if in the area. Breakfast was great as well. Thanks for a lovely stay! Nothing!
- Roy (8/5): -
- Ingrid (8/5): Guter Zwischenstopp - Alles sehr gut geeignet, um einen Zwischenstopp zu machen. Die Zimmer befinden sich in einem Trakt, der nicht an der Straße liegt und sind ruhig. Dieser Teil wirkt frisch renoviert mit einigen netten Ideen. Die Räumlichkeiten sind außerdem sehr sauber. Im Pub gibt es wirklich gutes Essen zu durchschnittlichen Preisen. Parken geht auf dem Hof. Das Bad war doch etwas eng und den Gebrauch des Durchlauferhitzers muss man sich erarbeiten. Wasser kommt auf Druck des unteren Knopfes und wird durch langes drücken abgestellt.
- ronnie (9/5): Great B&B - Accommodation was very good, nice comfortable bed would stay again
- daniel (10/5): Great service, accommodation and food. Thank you and see you again. - A very warm welcome from Pippa who called me on my journey to make sure that we didn’t miss the kitchen - thank you.
Dinner was exceptional and exceeded expectations - loved the well balanced menu and the quality of the food. Breakfast was excellent.
The accommodation was very comfortable and I will certainly stay there again when in the area. Nothing to add.
- Martin (10/5): - Breakfast was exactly what we asked for Nothing
- GShort (10/5): Great location in quiet village. - Really great location with good on site car parking. Staff were very friendly and highly efficient. Accommodation is in a separate mews cottage at the rear of the property. I was expecting a standard guest house bedroom so this exceeded my expectations.
As well as on-site eating there is a good range of shops and eating places in the village of Metheringham. Nothing
- Mary (9/5): Good food, comfortable rooms and great value for money - The Evening meal and Breakfast were very good . The room was clean and comfy and the WiFi was fast and reliable ( I was staying for work reasons, so this was important). The price of my stay was great value and the facilities and food exceeded what I was expecting for the price.
- Diane (10/5): Short break in Lincolnshire - The room was comfortable & clean. Good value for money. The food was amazing & staff very accommodating & friendly
- Nay (10/5): great stay - lovely and clean, friendly staff nothing!
- Heidi (10/5): Very pleasant stay in a pretty village, 20 minutes away from Lincoln. - The evening meal was delicious, very generous and not expensive. The breakfast was excellent. I loved the small detail of a cafetiere in the room. The decor was tasteful and the location pleasant. My only minus is that the mattress was too hard.
- Rosalind (9/5): - Breakfast
