The Bustard Inn has been beautifully restored to highlight the stone walls and original timbers.The decor is light and fresh reflecting the colours in the stone with tapestries and pictures, tapestry chairs, hand-made solid wood tables and doors, wrought iron work, porcelain tiled floors, subtle lighting and underfloor heating throughout, creating an elegant but informal and relaxing environment.

Set in the peaceful Lincolnshire village of South Rauceby, just a couple of miles from Sleaford, The Bustard Inn is a beautiful Grade II listed Victorian building offering a warm, safe, friendly environment in which to enjoy fine dining in the spacious, well-ventilated restaurant or simply relaxing with a beer & sandwich in the bar or garden.
