About this property
A rural retreat. Great for family holidays and get-togethers.
1 The Green is a delightful 4 bed-roomed holiday cottage in the village of Muston in the Vale of Belvoir (pronounced “Beever”).
This house is a favourite with dog walkers, families and for family reunions and weddings. It is cosy in the winter and peaceful in the summer. Many guests are returners.
The house is actually two farm cottages joined together to make a family house of four bedrooms with gas central heating. The house is newly restored in a sympathetic style using natural ecological paint, and is furnished with antique pieces to suit the house. There is an ample supply of glassware, china and linen. There is a large kitchen with electric stove, microwave oven, fridge, freezer, washing machine and tumble drier; a large sitting- room with television and open fire and an elegant separate dining- room/study.
There are two double bedrooms with double beds and two single bedrooms. There is a bathroom, shower room and a downstairs cloakroom. Outside there is a large front lawn, and at the rear a patio garden. A small conservatory serves as a store for bicycles, walking gear and garden furniture.
Located in Nottingham, this vacation home is in a rural area. Guildhall Arts Centre and Flintham Museum are cultural highlights, and some of the area's activities can be experienced at Belton Woods Hotel, Spa & Golf Resort and Langar Go Karting and Quad Biking Centre Nottingham. Traveling with kids? Consider Meres Leisure Centre and Grantham Meres Leisure Centre. Motor boating and sailing offer great chances to get out on the surrounding water, or you can seek out an adventure with hiking/biking trails and cycling nearby. Visit our Nottingham travel guide

We have stayed at the cottage many times. It is a lovely peaceful location, with a wonderful garden and various walks from the property. There is a well kept play park for children just around the corner.
The house was a great location for a family birthday. We particularly loved that there was a pub 15 minutes walk away which served all you can eat breakfast which was a great birthday treat without needing to cook.
Lovely cottage which had everything we needed for our week stay. Quiet village with fabulous canal walks. Parc just around the corner which the kids loved and plenty of things to do in the surrounding areas. Thank you for a lovely stay
We stayed at this property in November 2025. The house was warm and welcoming for our family reunion. The kitchen was about the best equipped of any holiday property I have used and makes such a difference. The lounge was comfortable, as were the bedrooms. As we brought our dog we were pleased that the gardens were secure. All in all, it was the perfect place for us and we would consider using it again.
A very comfortable house in the heart of a beautiful village. The neighbours were wonderfully kind, as was the owner, who did everything to ensure that we had a pleasant stay. Highly recommended!
We had a lovely stay with our 2 dogs. The house was well equipt, clean and homely. There were plenty of places to walk the dogs. The owner was really great in terms of responding to communications. Had a wonderful stay. Would defiantly stay again.
On the edge of a small village. Nice restaurant called the Gap on the edge of the village off A52.Close to Grantham. All mod cons available. Room for 6 and the village has a nice playground. Bottesford is very close for grocery shopping. Would stay here again.
A fab property in a great little village. Brilliant kids park round the corner. Very clean. A few items needed repair but was really well equipped, particularly the kitchen which in some rentals we have had we have found key items missing. Will definitely stay again.
Communication with the host is very good. Clear instructions for the property. The house is very comfortable to holiday in. We have stayed a few times and always enjoyed our time there. It does accommodate various age groups and we had a one year old with us. Although we had to shield the glass cupboard. A lovely property with a childrens play park within walking distance. If you have a dog, there are so lovely places to go all walkable from the property. A lovely farm shop selling fresh eggs. Its a great place for a relaxing holiday.
The cottage is situated in a beautiful peaceful village. There is lot of places of interest within 30mins drive or countless walks available. House is very well equipped, clean and the interior is very well designed. Utterly worth it.
We booked the cottage to bring in the new year,how glad we were to book with Lynn,from the first booking enquiry to leaving
the property everything was superb,everything you need for your stay is in the cottage. There are plenty of walks to go on,local pub(restaurant )is 10/15 mins walk,just make sure you have the bulk of your food/drink when you go in,there are no big supermarkets nearby(nearest is about 5 miles).Wouldn't hesitate to book with Lynn again.
We are 3 seniors we stayed for one week. Everything was as it should be except the shower cubicle. We did not use it because the sliding doors were not safe and appeared to be falling off. This was not a problem for us as we had a hand held shower over the bath. This is only a small problem and didn’t affect our enjoyment of the stay overall. Thank you for an opportunity to stay in your comfortable home
As described, this house has a very old feel and if you take time to read the information you get a real feel for the house and its history.We had everything we needed for a lovely comfortable stay with family joining us, the location had some lovely walks in a very charming village, a perfect get away. Communication with Lynn was quick and slightly earlier check in was appreciated with the hot weather for my parents. We had Olly our dog with secure garden he enjoyed exploring safely.

Our family of six had a wonderful stay in this delightful cottage! The cottage is so well equipped and lacks nothing. Lynn, our host, was very attentive and detailed. We can definitely recommend a stay here.
Lyn’s directions were clear and concise. The property is indeed very suitable for a family gathering (we hosted 10 for lunch). Lovely garden area! Several top notch pubs in the area. The house is well-equipped, but we found the towels a bit dated (easy fix for the owner). For older guests, the stairs are a narrow and a bit steep, need to use caution. We were unable to find extra toilet rolls; fortunately we had just enough!
