Summerfield's Hill

The walk up Summerfield's Hill from Grantham takes you to one of the few decent vantage points in this otherwise pancake-flat corner of Lincolnshire. It's not a mountain - we're talking a proper little bump rather than anything dramatic - but on a clear day the views across the Kesteven plateau are genuinely worth the leg work.

You'll get walkers loving this one, particularly those who've come from the glamping sites dotted around the area like Wagtail Country Park or Secret Garden just down the road. It's the kind of place where you can actually see your surroundings rather than being hemmed in by hedgerows. The hill itself is free to access - no gatekeepers, no car park fees, just a straightforward country walk.

Allow an hour or so for the climb and a proper look around at the top. Weekday mornings are best if you want peace, though the path gets muddy after rain so come prepared. Families with younger kids might find it a bit of a slog, but teenagers and proper walkers will crack on without complaint.

It's the sort of stop that makes sense if you're based at one of the local glamping spots for a week - something to stretch your legs on a morning before heading into Grantham for lunch. Not a destination in itself, but a proper useful addition to a Lincolnshire break.
