Amazing
The Barn was clean lots of kitchen equipment to cook, bedrooms were lovely trendy and beds were comfy. The welcoming pack was a lovely touch. The only 2 things i would mention the cooker for 10 people was atoo small. The bbq was a nice surprise and was really clean. The best part was the amazing jacuzzi shame the hot shower was not working outside but never stopped us having a great time outside. Perfect week away and we have already booked for next year would not hesitate to book any of these beautiful lodges/barns.
Stayed 4 nights in Apr 2023

Birthday Celebrations
This is the second time we have stayed in the Red Oak. We’re a group of girlfriends who go for my Birthday. The barn is beautiful spacious and has everything we require. The hot tub is a bonus for a lovely relaxing time. The welcome pack is a lovely touch too offering a delicious lemon drizzle cake. Thank you for a lovely stay see you again soon.

Amazing stay, we can’t wait to return!
We are a group of friends from school that now live across the country and love a good excuse to meet up when we can. We found Ashlin Barn Farms online and it was a perfect location for us all to reach! From the moment we arrived everything was perfect, even the little touches from the robes to the local cheese and Prosecco it made our stay incredible. There was everything we needed for a girly weekend and we are already talking about making this a yearly occasion! Thank you Ashlin Farm Barns, we loved every minute!

Fantastic holiday
The barn totally lived up to all the reviews and pictures. The facilities and conditions of the barn were amazing especially the huge hot tub. The welcome set the tone of what can only be described as a luxury experience. Thanks for a great stay.

My 60th Birthday Celebration
We were a party of 9 ladies staying at Red Oak Barn to celebrate my special birthday! The barn is absolutely beautiful with luxurious fittings and everything possible has been added to make it as comfortable as it could be! The swimspa was amazing, the fabulous en-suite facilities in every room were a delight and the personal service we received was outstanding! We arrived to find extra little touches in the form of cake and other goodies which made it a very special welcome for us all. We would definitely stay again and would recommend it wholeheartedly to anyone. Thank you Natalie and your team for making my birthday one to remember!

A superb holiday in a lovely place
This was an excellent holiday from booking until the end. Natalie made things seem personal and the extra touches made us all feel special. The barn is an amazing place to stay in a lovely location. The swim spa gives that extra touch along with slippers and robes. Our ages went from 3 to 74 and suited all. Hope to be back soon. Thank you.

Amazing beautiful place!!!
Could not fault a singular thing about our stay at Red Oak, Natalie was my point of contact and she was amazing and helped in any way possible. Every one of my friends loved the Red Oak Barn and called it our very only Love Island villa it was that amazing!! The little touches of balloons for my graduation celebration really topped off the stay! We definitely will return.

An amazing house and Natalie responded to any requests we had immediately
The house was everything that you see in the pictures, beautifully clean and comfortable. Although the 4 properties are attached round a courtyard, we were totally private and hardly heard the neighbours. Lovely location with nice walks and really nice pub not too far away. We had a fabulous weekend. The owners were very pleasant and friendly. We did have a problem with hot water but this was attended to almost as soon as we reported it. 5 stars throughout.

Cannot recommend highly enough
We hired four barns for a hen weekend. From the moment we booked Natalie and the team could not have been more helpful. Responsive to all of our questions and often going above and beyond when helping us plan details and venues for the hen. When we arrived the barns were breathtaking. They have combined amazing style and quality with practicality which is no easy task. There is everything you need and more for a wonderful stay and you feel like you are on the set of a beautiful homes magazine shoot! The setting is incredible, rural, scheduled with breathtaking views. Chris greeted us and showed us everything we needed and could not have been more helpful (or lovely) Our weekend was so incredibly special and a huge part of that was down to these wonderful barns and the support and care provided by the teams. Thank you so much, we will be back - Although it is someone else’s turn to organise it this time!

New Year Stay With Family
Absolutely fantastic place. From the moment we arrived it was so welcoming and had everything we needed and more. There were presents for all the children. Little nibble treats left for the adults and there was nothing we needed. We would definitely come again. Oh nearly forgot the hot tub was amazing and huge-enough room for all 9 of us!! Thank you will definitely book again

An amazing, relaxing retreat
My family and I absolutely loved our stay at what is a modern, spacious and really relaxing destination. The hot tub was a particular highlight - it is enormous. The owners have thought of everything; right down to minute detail such as Lincolnshire baking and cheese upon arrival and hallway torches for safety during nighttime. Would 100% return.

A wonderful Venue for our 80th Birthday family gathering (and for any other gathering)
From the initial contact and booking we have nothing but praise for the whole process and the helpfulness we received. On arrival we were made to feel most welcome - and that it was our comfort and enjoyment that was important. We were shown round the properties to ensure we knew how to operate the heating and other important elements. The property was warm and spotless and beautifully decorated for Christmas. On the kitchen top and in the fridges we found mince pies, lemon drizzle cake, milk , orange juice and Lincolnshire cheeses together with sparkling wine - what a welcome!! The spacious properties had been carefully planned with the customer satisfaction very much in mind - with many appreciated touches. We shall definitely use again and recommend this venue to others. We also used the Wild Cherry Barn at the same time for the same event and this revue applies equally to that.

Yearly Christmas weekend away with 10 wonderful friends
Stayed here for a girls weekend away. We were all extremely impressed with Red Oak Barn. We were met by the friendly staff on arrival. The personal and extra effort made to make our stay perfect was exceptional. The barn is a very high standard build and attention to detail was excellent. The hot tub was the icing on the cake. We will definitely return and stay again.

Simply exquisite
Visited Red Oak Barn for my mother’s 60th birthday and were truly blown away. There’s lot of these types of places available to rent but I urge anyone looking for that extra special getaway to chose Ashlin Farm Barns. Not only is the accommodation beautifully presented but the owners take immense pride in ensuring your trip is memorable and enjoyable. The little touches provided by this Barn make you feel like you’re royalty. Tom and his team have done an unbelievable job and there isn’t a single negative part I could mention about the entire trip from start to finish. Would like to say a massive thank you to Ashlin Farm Barns for making our week away a lovely memory and a great story to tell. I can’t recommend them highly enough, we will be returning soon! Thank you Andrew

Luxuriously Stunning . Majestic and Uneque
From the minute we arrived at the cottage we were all (party of 8) overwhelm at the decore and homely feel . All 5 bedrooms were laid out to perfection the cleanliness was exceptional . Each room was uneque and all wet rooms were luxurious and spacious . The roll top bath was gorgeous and filled in moments. There were so many little extras added that were so thoughtful from a rubber duck to join us in the said roll top bath to a fresh lemon drizzle cake , champagne with a carton of orange juice , a (personal) birthday ballon and a cheese board from the local farm . Lots of extra things though of ‘outside the box’ . The hot tub was out of this world , a whole new level of luxury and ever person in the party had to be dragged out the cottage kicking and screaming as it was the best weekend break , we had all expected to be good and clean but it was absolutely exceptional totally wondrous this is 10/10 across the board not one complaint at all .

Memorable stay
Having stayed at a number of UK self catering properties over the last few years, this one tops them all. The facilities are fantastic, accommodation is very comfortable and very practical. Lots of little extras which were very appreciated. The property is very child friendly, the kids and adults can not wait to return.

MRS Edwian Barber and family from Manchester
Our family of ten ages 2 to 68 really enjoyed our stay at Red Oak Barn, we have a family holiday every year this being our tenth and would say Red Oak Barn and Lincoln is joint top for accommodation and proximity to Lincoln and local attractions. We found the park and ride very useful with it being a busy bank holiday weekend. A lot of thought has gone into the design and presentation of the barn. The excellent welcome packs, food and children’s gift bags was a lovely touch. We would definitely recommend Red Oak Barn.
