Folkingham is a charming village in Lincolnshire lying between Grantham, Sleaford and Spalding. The village dates all the way back to the Domesday Book of 1086 but was likely established in the 6th century as an Anglo-saxon settlement. The village was previously home to the impressive Folkingham Castle, although the ruins do not remain, the site of them can still be visited. Today the village is home to a local store where visitors can stock up on all of their self-catering essentials and a The New Inn pub. The nearby market town of Grantham is home to the National Trust’s Belton House, a grand 17th-century home with orangery and extensive grounds which you can roam; if you’re lucky you may even spot the resident deer! Alternatively head north to Sleaford which houses the Cogglesford Watermill museum, Navigation House Visitor Centre and the Cranwell Aviation Heritage Museum. The village is also encapsulated by the wonderful English countryside where guests can admire rolling fields or visit the Colsterworth Nature Trail or Pickworth Great Wood to experience the great outdoors.
