Flight fantastic

Lincolnshire offers some of the most unique aviation experience associated with World War II, as well as active flying opportunities.

The county has been synonymous with the Royal Air Force, for active airfields protecting our skies today and the heritage of the 49 airfields located in the county at the height of World War II.

Modern day RAF stations include Digby, Cranwell and Waddington. The RAF Aerobatic Team, The Red Arrows, are stationed at RAF Waddington and their regular practice appearances in Lincolnshire and Nottinghamshire skies delight locals and visitors alike, as well as their programme of appearances around the UK and abroad.

Aircraft displays and the chance to enjoy a WW2 experience like no other can be found at Lincolnshire Aviation Heritage Centre at East Kirkby. Their Avro Lancaster NX611 โ€˜Just Janeโ€™ taxi ride delivers authentic sights, sounds and smells from inside the aircraft.

The Battle of Britain Memorial Flight (BBMF) is based at RAF Coningsby where the centre allows visitors to see authentic Spitfires and Hurricanes. Lancaster PA474 is undergoing major service at Duxford during 2026 and will return in 2027.

Big skies and stunning shores

The Lincolnshire coastline stretches from Donna Nook in the north to Frampton Marsh in the south and these 50 or so miles offer experiences from stunning skylines to bustling resorts; exhilarating thrills to unspoilt beauty.

Family fun
Seaside towns like Skegness, Mablethorpe, Sutton on Sea and Cleethorpes attract the holiday crowds; ideal for families seeking a traditional bucket and spade getaway. Attractions include a donkey ride on Skegness seafront, the thrill of the roller coasters at Fantasy Island, Skegness or a more relaxing jaunt on the Sand Train which travels along Mablethorpeโ€™s magnificent shoreline. The arcades and attractions in Skegness include the Skegness Pier entertainment complex and the high-wire adventure course, Altitude 44.

Of course, there is also the opportunity to tuck into a fish and chip supper with fresh fish from Grimsby and Lincolnshire grown potatoes.

If the weather is not so kind there are plenty of indoor experiences to keep you amused. Visit the Natureland Seal Sanctuary where orphaned or injured seals washed up on the countyโ€™s beaches are cared for. Enjoy the warm waters of Butlinโ€™s Splash Waterworld or relax at a show at the Embassy Centre.

Natural coast
Travel away from the bustle of the main resorts, where unspoilt stretches of coastline are home to abundant native species as well as migratory birds and wildlife. Visitors ready with their binoculars will find plenty to see at Chapel Point where the North Sea Observatory is a marvellous vantage point and refreshment stop.

Go slightly further inland and escape to the wild expanses of the Lincolnshire coastal grazing marshes around Burgh le Marsh, Saltfleetby and Huttoft. The Lincolnshire Coronation Coast National Nature Reserve covers 12 square miles of sand dunes, saltmarsh, mudflats and freshwater marshes. National Trust Sandilands is now part of The Lincolnshire Coastal Country Park where a length of the England Coast Path trail gives walkers the chance to explore diverse areas of abundant wildlife and ancient folklore as well as vibrant local communities.

And donโ€™t forget there is an excellent choice of accommodation to suit all tastes and budgets. Look at the section at the back of this guide to find some of the best.

Explore, Eat, Shop and Stay โ€“ the destination which has it all

At the heart of the 1,900 acre Doddington estate is the Elizabethan Hall with an impressive 400 years of unbroken family history. Completed by Robert Smythson in 1600, Doddington Hall and Gardens gives visitors a glimpse of life through the ages and also the development of the estate in the 21st century. The Hall is surrounded by six acres of beautiful walled and wild gardens and also home to an award-winning farm shop, cafรฉs, tea room, restaurant and country clothing store. Across the estate there are padel courts, cycling trails, estate walks and holiday cottages making Doddington a place where history, nature and leisure come together.

Whether you choose to discover more about the fascinating history of Doddington Hall or take a stroll through the Wilder Doddington landscape, an ambitious project aiming to bring nature back to the estate, there is something to captivate the whole family. Each year the events programme includes safaris to sculpture and tree walks to theatre and not forgetting a magical Christmas at Doddington.

You are sure to have worked up an appetite during your visit so make your choice from the delicious dining options. Visit the Farm Shop Cafรฉ for seasonal dishes, the Doddington Tea Room for traditional afternoon tea or the Grain Store Cafรฉ, Restaurant and Bar which offers a daytime cafรฉ menu and sophisticated ร  la carte dining on Friday, Saturday evenings and Sunday Lunch.

A highlight of the Doddington menus is the estateโ€™s own pasture fed Lincoln Red beef, kitchen garden grown and estate foraged produce and fine quality locally-sourced ingredients โ€“ all key parts of the estateโ€™s sustainability efforts.

There is always something new to experience at Doddington, whatever the season, so enjoy a warm welcome and an unforgettable visit.
