Stamford


Come rain or shine, this elegant town seems bathed in a warm glow thanks to the beautiful honey-coloured Lincolnshire limestone with which it’s built. Sloping gently up from the River Welland and a sprawling waterside park, its winding streets overflow with fine medieval and Georgian buildings. And if you feel as though you’re walking through a period drama, there’s a reason: Stamford has been used as a set for more drama productions than you can shake a clapperboard at.

The tourist office (755611; [email protected]; 27 St Mary’s St; 9.30am-5pm Mon-Sat year-round, & 10am-4pm Sun Apr-Oct) is in the Stamford Arts Centre, and helps with accommodation. They can also arrange guided town walks (£3.50) and chauffeured punt trips.
