We have lived in Swayfield for 27 years and love the peace and tranquillity of this lovely part of Lincolnshire. You will see how much we enjoy gardening when you visit! Beautiful borders, productive vegetable patch and greenhouse plus lots of wild birds in the garden. We love to walk and cycle so can suggest lots of local routes and provide you with maps and recommend pubs and tea shops to visit.
