Local Surroundings - The hamlet of South Thoresby is located only a few miles from the lovely market town of Louth and 40 minutes from the cathedral city of Lincoln…which for those that don’t know is like York but without the tourists and from where there are direct trains to London.
Being at the foot of the glacial valley of Swaby, there are many stimulating walks close by and for the more athletic there are good routes for a run or cycling. There are many sporting facilities in the area including a private tennis club.
Situated 2.5 miles from the studios is the small market town of Alford where there is a pleasant mix of useful shops and takeaways. A few miles from the studios is the very pretty market town of Louth, the capital of The Wolds. Several times in size to Alford with a more varied selection of interesting shops including an excellent record shop, cheese shop, some fine restaurants, coffee houses, tapas bars…..and larger supermarkets. Altogether most things you would expect to find and quite a few you would not! Ten minutes drive east is the coast, with many quiet sandy beaches and country pubs.
