Latest Louth hotel reviews
Only a few miles from Louth....
sourbugger Says: To the north of Louth lies a marvel of engineering. It was for 18 years the longest single span suspension bridge in the world - the Humber Bridge.In transport terms it was supposed to part of a new motorway to the North, but the M11 only got as far as Cambridge. It replaced...
sourbugger Says: An AONB is a 'an area of outstanding natural beauty'. The Lincolnshire wolds certainly fit this description. The gently sloping, or rolling hills are farmed intensively, but this agricultural landscape has not been destroyed by today's modern farming methods.There are plenty...
Tallest church spire in the UK
sourbugger Says: If there is one definite 'must do' in Louth then it has to be a visit to the the very impressive 15th Century parish church. The ceiling over the nave and the tower/spire are especially fine features.If you exclude cathedrals, then the tower is the tallest in the UK, and it...
Sorrento's: Great little buffet at Lunchtime
sourbugger Says: A good traditional trattatoria (never seem to use that word much these days) is always good to find. At less than five pounds for a lunchtime buffet it's hard not to be impressed with several pizza, meatballs, sausages, salad and pasta dishes available.Green, cream and...
Dragos77 Says: Transportation meanings around here fells in two categories: by car or by bus; there is no train to service this location, as the most convenient station is in Lincoln.I strongly recommend for anyone coming here to use a car, since the bus services are only a few per day. If...
sourbugger Says: Louth is a bit of a bugger to get to unless you are travelling by car.The railway was axed many years ago, although it is reasonably accessible by bus from Grimsby and lincoln which are both on the national rail network.
The co-operative food: Buying wide range of basic goods
Dragos77 Says: Well.... I have to say that the shop is not necessary "special", but it offers a one-stop place for anyone in need for some basic food at reasonable prices, daily magazines or maybe a pencil and some paper. I have especially appreciated the late-night extended opening hour...
Venus: For all your hippy requisites
sourbugger Says: I didn't quite understand what the Greek God of love had to do with a shop that imports jewellery, clothes, fabrics and various ornaments and nic-nacs from the Indian sub-continent. The shop seemed far more suited to Covent Garden or Camden market where all this hippy stuff...
Gyo: I've never written about one of these before..
sourbugger Says: I don't think i've ever written about a shoe shop before, but dragged in here by my better half, I must admit that this shop seemed an agreeable place to be.They sell mainly shoes to women and children and some fashion jewllery. Presently they are a very small chain (they...
sourbugger Says: Louth is still an innately conservative little town, traditional to it's core. It's almost as if youhave arrived back in the 1950's and Captain Mainwairing is still seeing out his time at the bank.For example, looking in a newsagent's window there, I saw the sign "Large...
sourbugger Says: Louth is a true market town. Although it has a couple of market halls that operate every day, they mostly sell cheap clothes and other associated tat.Twice a week the main streets are visited by the outdoor market selling fresh fruit, veg, meat, flowers and just about...
The League of gentlemen strike again
sourbugger Says: There is something quite wonderful about the self-deprecating type of humour that you get in North Lincolnshire.I recently saw on a bus the slogan 'Local buses for local people'. This is a delightful little parody of one of the catchphrases on the 'League of Gentlemen' TV...
