| Description |
This charming limestone and pan tile cottage dates back to the 18th century or earlier. The cottage has been recently renovated, but still retains its tremendous character. The cottage stands in about 0.6 acres of land, with mature garden around it, and space for tennis courts or a pony paddock behind it.
Situation:
The cottage is set in a quiet corner of Hemswell village, a largely limestone village at the foot of the Lincolnshire edge escarpment, a designated Area of Great Landscape Value. The village, with its old maypole still in place (and still in use), is unspoilt, friendly and increasingly popular. Willow Cottage is in a Conservation Area, faces a designated Important Open Space, and backs onto open fields. Planning restrictions prevent new housing in the village other than minor infill.
Hemswell lies within easy commuting distance of Lincoln, 12 miles to the south and Scunthorpe and the M180 network to the north. Gainsborough, to the west, gives easy access to the A1 at Retford and Bawtry.
\School transport is provided for 2 local primary schools and 3 secondary schools (Queen Elizabeth Grammar School, Gainsborough, Huntcliff Comprehensive, Kirton-in-Lindsey, and De Aston Comprehensive, Market Rasen).

Grounds
The front garden is fronted by a limestone wall, which has been incorporated into an alpine garden. There are also flower beds and a lawn at the front.
Gravel drives run into gravel parking and turning areas on either side of the house. There is a brick and pan tile garage/store (13’32 x 12’8” internally) on one side.

The garden goes back through mature ornamental trees and informal beds of mixed and alpine planting, past a pond with pumped stream, to a large area of open grass. Behind this is a small wood, with fruit trees.
