Sightseeing
If you are visiting between mid-October and late-December this is a part of the wild Lincolnshire coast that you must see! Seals come ashore to have their pups in the dunes and you can see this spectacular sight close at hand. We have devised a lovely walk through our farm to reach Donna Nook on foot avoiding the crowds and car-parking difficulties. At other times in the year, the coastal walks around here are where you can find peace and quiet and plenty of fresh air!

Shopping
Louth has retained its reputation as a lively market town full of independent and interesting shops. Because the large supermarkets have been largely resisted, there is still a high street with butchers, fruit and vegetables and delicatessens as well as places to eat and drink and giftware. Enjoy the market on Wednesdays, Fridays and Saturdays and on Thursdays, farmers gather at the Cattle Market to sell their cattle and sheep.
