With a need for speed, Bourne is a small but ever-growing market town found in the South of Lincolnshire. Historically rich and culturally wealthy, renting a renovated farmhouse, charming lodge or modern well-lit apartment is just one of the many draws of the local area.
Renowned for its wide-open spaces and wonderful woodlands, Bourne is a town obsessed with the glitz and glamour of motor racing, being the home of not just English Racing Automobiles but also British Racing Motors, two powerhouses in the world of Formula One. Why not discover all about it upon visiting Bourne’s Heritage Centre which has a floor solely dedicated to the thrill-seeking sport, as well as other exhibits which can tell you all about living in this quaint English town?
Get into gear by steering yourself to Bourne Woods, the perfect place for your family walk in the brisk Lincolnshire air. With many tracks, public footpaths and a special sculpture trail offering the finest heathland, silver birch and pine trees, it’s no wonder that this tranquil part of the county has been used as a film location on many an occasion. Looking for more miracles from Mother Nature? Check out the 1000-year-old Bowthorpe Oak at the nearby village of Manthorpe in Grantham with its huge and hollow girth, a prominent feature in recent editions of the Guinness Book Of Records. The perfect place for a picnic!
With all this to offer as well as a humble home sweet home that not only provides a fully furnished kitchen and open plan dining room with traditional and tasteful décor, but also a lush green garden blessed with natural English countryside wildlife and a spacious outdoor patio for an al fresco barbecue with delicious Lincolnshire sausages, Bourne is the ideal setting for your family holiday this summer.
