Bringing The Boat House back to life

The Boat House has stood unchanged since 1962. The time has come for this lake-side building, the site of many Cooper family celebrations, to enjoy a new lease of life. Here, we’ll be keeping you up-to-date with all the renovation work as we work to create a luxury self-catered accommodation that allows guests to soak up the peace and tranquillity of the surroundings, in line with our plans for further diversification.

One of the ongoing projects we are bringing to life at Otby House Farm is The Boat House. As we progress with the build and renovations to transform this quirky building on the edge of the lake into a unique place to stay, we'll be keeping you up-to-date with regular insights. Visit the blog to find out the latest.

We pride ourselves on working with the best, local suppliers, so you can make the most of every moment at Otby.

Bruce Waddleton

This is the best lake I have fished in Lincolnshire. Well conditioned and powerful fish. Caught 11 before midday, things got a bit slower in the afternoon. The owner was very friendly, would highly recommend this venue.

David Christie-Mileham

Beautiful lake tucked in a stunning valley. Found this venue while staying at a nearby campsite last summer. Only had a few hours to fish but had three nice rainbows. Owner was friendly and helpful. Only saw one other angler while I was there. Will definitely return.

Dom from Gerrads Cross

Lovely house, very nice view and host was just as we like them to be, there on the phone if required but in no way in your hair all the time. Loads of wildlife to watch and avoid while driving in and out. Just what we wanted, a quiet peaceful break. We would go again.

Samantha Western

Loren Henshaw

We just got back from a long weekend for my husbands birthday. Joined by some friends , it was honestly stunning photos don’t do it justice. It has everything you need & the added note chocolate & some other Lincolnshire treats on arrival was a lovely little gesture. So peaceful , I honestly can’t wait to come back & already looked at dates. Beds were comfy, rooms & bathrooms were very spacious. Thank you
