Lincolnshire is one of England’s most underrated dog walking counties that’s almost entirely free of the crowds that make more celebrated destinations difficult in summer. The Lincolnshire Wolds, designated an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, offer open chalk downland walking with far-reaching views and well-maintained footpaths that a dog can cover at full stretch. The county’s coastline with plenty of wide, sandy stretches between Skegness and Cleethorpes, provides some of the most dog-friendly beaches in England, many of which allow dogs all year round. The flat fenland of south Lincolnshire is different again with enormous skies, straight drove roads, and a quietness that suits dogs who find busy landscapes stressful. Farm stays in Lincolnshire tend to be excellent value compared to more visited counties, and the space and seclusion on offer, particularly on the Wolds and the fen edge, gives dogs a freedom that’s hard to find in the more popular destinations.
