Kylemore Railway Cottage

Nestled in the picturesque rural village of Uffington, just near Stamford, Lincolnshire, is Kylemore Cottage, a beautifully converted former railway station exuding charm and history. This quaint property is a haven for trainspotters, featuring an original-stone exterior and a modern interior. Surrounded by numerous walkways and cycle paths, Kylemore Cottage offers the perfect retreat for families or groups of friends seeking a peaceful self-catered stay in the heart of the Lincolnshire countryside.

Originally constructed in 1840, the Grade II listed building was converted into a cozy dwelling by family member Joseph William Holt in the 1950s. As you arrive and park on the driveway, you'll find yourself in a welcoming atmosphere where you can unpack and settle in. The elegantly designed kitchen/diner beckons you to prepare a delightful meal for your companions, which you can enjoy at the dining table in the cozy dining room next to a crackling woodburning stove. After your meal, relax in the thoughtfully arranged sitting room, furnished with plush sofas and a wall-mounted Smart TV with Sky.

Open the bi-fold doors leading to the tranquil rear garden and sip on your favorite drink while appreciating the serenity and occasional sight of passing trains. Kylemore Cottage offers four bedrooms, including a king-size room with an en-suite shower, providing a peaceful retreat to unwind after a day of exploration. The property is a dream come true for railway enthusiasts, with steam engines passing by and a view of one of the few manned signal boxes in the country.

Should you decide to venture beyond the cottage, you can dine at local eateries like The Bertie Arms or The Millstone at Barnack, offering traditional pub fare and gastropub dishes, respectively. Nearby Stamford offers a myriad of attractions, including the historic Burghley House, St Leonard's Priory, and the Priest's House in Easton on the Hill, managed by the National Trust. Additionally, the proximity to the iconic Burghley Horse Trials, a prestigious equestrian event held annually at Burghley House, adds to the appeal of choosing Kylemore Cottage for your memorable Lincolnshire getaway.
