Hunters Lodge Fishery

If you’ve got a bit of time to kill in between fishing, there’s plenty in the surrounds of this site to keep you occupied. Trundle off to the historic market town of Brigg (10 minutes’ drive) or head towards the Humber Bridge for nature-filled days in the birdwatching areas, RSPB nature reserves and on the Viking Way trail (15 minutes). Other worthwhile destinations deep in the countryside hereabouts include the Lincolnshire Wolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (30 minutes) with its hills and flat fens for hiking and biking. If you’re thinking of adding some city saunters to your hol, head to Hull (40 minutes) for the underwater wildlife-watching tunnels in The Deep aquarium and the educational establishments in the Museums Quarter. Lincoln, meanwhile, has a cathedral with a library designed by architect Christopher Wren and a castle displaying one of the copies of the Magna Carta (50 minutes).
