For three decades it has been an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, one of only 37 in England.
Head inland from Lincolnshire's coastline and discover a landscape centred on the glorious rolling hills of the picture postcard Wolds.
Nestling among hills moulded through two Ice Ages are sleepy stone villages and bustling market towns steeped in history, just waiting to be discovered.
This stunning landscape inspired one of England's greatest poets, Alfred Lord Tennyson. Visit the village of Somersby, where Tennyson's childhood home remains and the 15th century church where his father was a rector.
Head to Louth for a quaint market town atmosphere, or take yourself along to the races at Market Rasen. Alford, at the foot of the Wolds, is home to a dramatic five-sailed windmill as well as the largest thatched manor house in England - Alford Manor House.
A haven for walkers, each May sees the annual Lincolnshire Wolds Walking Festival arrive into the area - check our events section in early 2008 for details of the next festival.
