History

Lime House Bed and Breakfast is a Grade 2 listed property with parts of the house dating back to George 1.

The house has three staircases and at one time was a barn that that has been refurbished. Most rooms have old oak beams and the floor has that typical uneveness that can make one think you "should take more water with your drink!"

All bacon and sausages are bought at the local butcher and of very high quality. Continental breakfast can be arranged if informed at booking.

In Kirton there are several places in walking distance to dine and the surrounding villages offer more up market restaurants in both Scunthorpe, 8 miles away, Brigg 7 miles away and Lincoln 19 miles away.

Grounds & Gardens

Lime house has a very pretty garden and those staying are welcome to make use of it, there is an area that has table and chairs just right for those evenings when sitting outside is preferable to being in a restaurant or Public house. 

The garden is quirky with old hay waggon sheds and many nooks and crannies. The view from the garden is breathtaking looking over the Trent Valley, a delight to sit in on those summer evenings with a barbeque area that is currently being developed where guests are welcome to barbeque or hire the services of the hosts. This area is completely secluded.
