Lincolnshire Tour

Taking place the day after the VSCC Seaman Trophy Race Meeting at Cadwell Park, this tour will give members a great opportunity to explore more of this beautiful but largely under-stated county and to extend their vintage experience over the whole weekend.

The tour has been designed to incorporate the differing but amazing landscapes of Lincolnshire, embracing elements of the county’s aviation history.

The tour will start and end at the Thorpe Camp Visitor Centre, midway between Coningsby and Woodhall Spa, where light refreshments will be offered both before and after the tour. The visitor centre is on part of the 1940’s RAF Woodhall Spa site with its connections to the 617 (Dambusters) Squadron. From there the route, of approximately 70 miles, will travel northwards towards the Wolds where stunning views will be enjoyed from near empty roads. Then travelling South, the route will embrace some typical fen landscapes before returning to Thorpe Camp.

During the day, you will pass Woodhall Spa, the famous Petwood Hotel, Horncastle with its antique shops, the Lincolnshire Aviation Heritage Centre and the Battle of Britain Memorial Flight Visitor Centre.

No specific lunch stop has been arranged in order to offer flexibility if you wish to stop off at any of the places of interest. Accordingly, you are advised to bring a picnic lunch.

It is anticipated that there will be strong demand for places on this new tour and with limited numbers, early booking is advised.
