Details

This is an 8 mile walk starting in the centre of the village and takes in some of the former spa resorts highlights including the National Golf Centre and the Cottage Museum.
We head North out of the village along the Viking Way to the village of Stixwold with its disused railway station. The station was also the site of the Stixwould ferry across the River Witham. The station building and signal box have now been converted into a private dwelling and guest house but the platforms survive and one has a station name board.
We continue across farmland, through Halstead and Stixwold woodland to the Village Limits | Restaurant, Accommodation & Entertainment in Woodhall Spa for a brief pub/comfort stop, before passing the Petwood Hotel, home to the RAF 617 "Dambusters" Sqn, through Jubillee Park and back to our start at the dambusters memorial.
Lots of cafes and places to explore in Woodhall for those not wanting to stay for lunch.
I am booking a table at Kings Arms, Martin Dales where Sunday lunch is great value:
