Wold Newton is a small village nestled in the Lincolnshire Wolds, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. We’re pretty much between the towns of Louth, Grimsby, Caistor and Market Rasen. The Wolds have been farmed for hundreds of years and have public footpaths, bridleways and permissive paths that offer stunning views across the whole county and out to sea.

Lots of people visit Wold Newton – walkers, cyclists, runners, and horse riders; returning throughout the year as the seasons change. For some, it is for exercise, sport, competition, or active leisure time. For many more, it is to appreciate the gentle pace of life here and to get close to the wildlife we share the land with. People come for the solitude and quietness of being out in nature, many more share their visits with families and friends. All are welcome. Throughout the year there is always something to bring us closer to nature – snowdrops, daffodils, pheasants, badgers, the first swallows, hedges strewn with berries, crisp Autumn leaves and the beauty of cold frosts and rime on the trees.

Many people struggle to get out and about in nature. It can be hard to climb hills, explore new places and navigate fields; and even more so when you’re not as fit, strong or mobile as you might like to be. But getting out and about can help with all sorts of challenges we face in life – giving us a change of scene, a new perspective, a sense of achievement and some time to be ourselves.
