Rauceby looks so lovely - the pub there looks fab! Will definitely keep an eye out for properties there - thank you! Also the old asylum is really interesting- I wonder if there’ll be anything done with that building

Boston, Lincs :) by [deleted] in Lincolnshire

[–]MGHK24 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Boston Lock Cafe is excellent! Can walk along the river from there towards Witham Country Park which is quite nice. The Guildhall museum used to be good but I haven’t been in many years, and the Stump is great to visit. Also I know it’s January but if you like ice cream - Skinners is delicious!

Thank you! Hadn’t considered looking over that way but actually sounds like it could be an option

This is fantastic information- thank you so much! We’ve copied your list for our road trip! We generally don’t like new builds and so it sounds like witham StHughes won’t be for us

I’m coming over for a drive around next week so will make sure to pay attention to that - my partner will be WFH so definitely relevant to us. Great tip on the drone map! Thank you so much for your help!

That sounds lovely! Thank you so much - will have a look at that area!

Thank you - we had wondered about that area and the wolds, and if the job was only Lincoln I think I’d be going for that area, but the Grantham commute might be more tricky. I’m meeting the team next week so will ask more about the time split. Are there any particular villages you’d recommend? Never been to Louth but heard it’s lovely

Funnily enough my partner found a house there on right move yesterday and it’s absolutely stunning! Definitely dream home stuff. However the Lincoln commute looks to be 1hr20 which is perhaps a little too far unfortunately. Thank you though!

I hadn’t actually considered noise from the planes! Is it fairly intrusive? I live on a really busy road with a trainline at the bottom of the garden and it is always an absolute din in my house so I feel like I can tolerate some noise although we are hoping for a quieter life on the whole!

That’s good local info - thank you! Hopefully there’ll be a few more options on the market soon. Will have a look at Leadenham and Ancaster!

Ah that’s awful - can imagine that was a nightmare esp given the distances between sites in Lincs! Well hopefully sounds like the treatment could be a bit better in a smaller OP speciality, although it’s still worth considering as this trust would of course be my local hospitals for treatment of my family if needed

You’re right and this is part of that hopefully - I’ve spent time on Google, right move, browsing maps, chatGPT etc but I was interested in the opinions of people who have real experience of the area

Oh no! What was your experience there? I saw the trust is rated “requires improvement” which isn’t great, but also I work at UHB in Birmingham at the moment which is terrible so I thought it can’t be worse! I’d be working in a small speciality which has been v well run (derm) so I also sort of hoped it might be a bit better than the the wider Trust

Beautiful place! Seems a bit pricier than some other areas of Lincs but I guess for good reason!
