Lincolnshire Wolds
Centered around the charming traditional market towns of Louth and Alford, the Lincolnshire wolds are the perfect loacation for a quiet, relaxing gettaway.
The Wolds are sparsely populated and have a deeply rural character.
A fascinating history, with a strong Viking influence evident in many of the placenames. There are also an abundance of mediaeval 'lost villages': settlements abandoned due to changes in land use.
Whether cycling, rambling or just enjoying the countryside is your thing, the Lincolnshire wolds have everything, charming little villages, miles of country lanes, interesting historical sites, and for the aviation enthusiast, one of the most interesting areas to explore in the uk.
Exploring castles...
Tattershall castle, built in the fifteenth century, has been restored to its former glory, and is maintained by the national trust. Spectacular views of Lincolnshire can be seen from the imposing keep.
Bolingbrook castle is no more than a ruin, but still of historical importance, it can be found in the charming village of Old Bolingbrook.
