The rural hamlet of Harrowby could be perfect for an English country cottage holiday. Surrounded by fields and farmalnds, this Lincolnshire hamlet is located just a short distance away from Grantham but feels a world away. Staying here brings ample opportunities for exploring lovely countryside, lively towns, villages and life on the canal. Situated next to the Grantham Canal, walking and cycling along the towpath are popular activities. It’s also a delight to get out on the water, and visitors enjoy booking a boat trip along the navigable length of the canal, with a crew member and skipper on board. Keep eyes peeled for local wildlife such as heron and kingfishers.
