Good value for money but room could do with an update especially the bathroom and some soundproofing as you could hear people in other rooms and in corridor quite clearly, also people outside throughout the night so could be noisy.

Newark

Balderton dates back to Saxon times, and it is known that Lady Godiver the wife of Earl Leofric had property nearby. In the past the Great North Road from London to York passed through the village. There is no trace of an original Saxon church, although one probably existed. The church dates from the 12th century when a simple building, some of which still remains in the nave, was constructed. The north and south doorways still retain Norman arches with zigzag patterning (although both have been moved from their original position). The church consists of a tower with spire, nave with north and south aisles, north and south porches, and a chancel with north Chapel which houses the organ. The tower dates from the 13th century and is of three stages. It was encased in ashlar in the 1880s. The top is embattled with pinnacles and gargoyles. The spire dates from circa 1400 and is crocketted with lucarnes. There are 8 bells. The nave has four bay arcades with octagonal piers. In the 13th century the north aisle was added and a larger chancel was built. Shortly after, the nave was extended westward, and the building of the tower commenced, this was delayed by the Black Death of 1347. The south aisle was added in the 14th century. The font also dates from this time. It is octagonal, with ball flower ornamentation. Around this time a clerestory was added, which was later removed in Victorian times. The screen dates from the 15th century and it was originally brightly painted and had panels of Biblical scenes. Evidence of the stonework supporting the rood loft was removed during restoration in 1882. In the late 15th century the pews were installed. These have carved poppy heads depicting animals and other figures, one man is playing Lincolnshire bagpipes. There are also undecorated 19th-century pews. The pulpit is from around 1475 and was previously on the south side of the chancel arch but was moved in 1882. The north door with its wicket is of the same 15th century period. The Victorian restoration of the church took place in 1882, when the nave roof was altered and the clerestory removed. The chancel roof had already been replaced in 1850, and additional pews were installed. The north porch was rebuilt incorporating the Norman arch. In 1929 cracks were found in the tower wall and major repairs to the foundations were undertaken. A new vestry was constructed in 1964 on the south side of the church. In 1983 the chancel was encased in Ancaster stone, matching the rest of the church. There are several 19th-century stained-glass windows and some reset fragments of 15th century glass which were found in the churchyard.

Balderton

The church dates from circa 1300, and is built from ashlar with the lead roofs. The church is a cruciform plan with a west tower and spire, nave with north and south aisles, south porch, transepts, chancel and north vestry. The tower is of four stages, the two lower of circa 1300, the two upper of circa 1500. On the east side of the nave the original steeply pitched roofline is visible. The tower has ornate pinnacles and projecting gargoyles, the octagonal spire is 15th century with lucarnes, Crockets and finial. The nave has clerestory windows of three lights. There are moulded eaves with corbel heads above,and a frieze of shields, battlements and ornate pinnacles. The north aisle has an early 14th century west window and on the roof is a small bell turret,the north transept has early 14th century window of three lights. The chancel is 15th century and was restored in the 19th C. It has two large windows on both north and south sides each of three lights. There are hood moulds and grotesque animal label stops.There is a large pointed east window of five lights with perpendicular tracery. The original roofline of the chancel is visible on the east end of the nave. The south transept was probably remodelled in the 15th century from a detached lady Chapel built circa 1275. The west side of the transept has 14th century windows with head label stops. The porch is 14th century and has 15th century ornamentation, it has projecting gargoyles and ornate pinnacles. It contains stone benches and a corbel that once supported a roof, one is dated 1631. The 14th century west door has foliated capitals with elaborate finials. The nave has three bays, with piers from circa 1300. The south wall of the south transept has three 13th century sedilia and two aumbries. The chancel arch is from the 14th century and has caryatid figures. There is a 14th century screen which was restored in the 19th century. There is a 14th century hexagonal font with ornate Gables and pinnacles. The church contains various small 18th and 19th-century monuments. The church has recently undergone much restoration work including work to the spire, tower, bells, roof, windows and a new boiler system.
