🥾

Each week we will be suggesting a walk around North Lincolnshire for our Walk Wednesdays!

Barton Waters' Edge Visitor Centre & Country Park walk 📍

START: Waters Edge Car park. Turn off the A1077 into Barton upon Humber.
Follow the road signs to the Humber Bridge viewing area or to Waters
Edge. This follows a one way system leaving Castledyke West and
turning left into waterside Road opposite the Railway Station. Turn right
into Maltkiln Road and follow it round past Tesco’s Supermarket to the
road end where there is large car park on the left. DN18 5JR.
TIME: Between 1 hour and 1½ hours depending on how often you stop to watch
the wildlife and general views (3 Miles.)
ROUTE:
1. Head north to a wooden bridge which bends round to the right
and follow the path which is parallel to the embankment on
your left.
2. At the T junction of paths, turn left on a path which rises on to the
river embankment and turn right to follow the embankment.
3. After the tile works, turn right at a ramp leading down to a track
which runs adjacent to the Sailing club..
4. Turn right into Pasture Road North, which is initially a rough lane
and then tarmac. The road bends to the left, and keep your eyes
open for a large metal turnstile on your right.
5. Enter the nature reserve and follow the gravel path through small
lakes and reed beds until you reach a path junction. Ahead is a
hide on your right and the river embankment. Turn left and follow
the gravel path past small lakes, past a hide on your left until you
cross a footbridge.
6. Soon after the footbridge, another gravel path turns left, this is a
pleasant loop passing scrubland on your right, ignore the path on
the right and cross a footbridge. The gravel path leads between
lakes and around with a metal fence on your left, the path meets a
T junction and to the left is another large metal turnstile. This is
the exit to the reserve. Go through and to the right and across the
road is the car park.

FANCY A BREAK NEXT WEEKEND?
🌅🏖☀️🌿🌸🦆🦉🦋
I have an opening over next weekend (from Friday 18th June or possibly before) for a short break booking at Brightside Cottage.

Early bird current prices in June for a two night stay are £120 based upon 2 sharing, £140 for 4 people. Please contact me for 3 or 5 people or more nights.
The cottage can currently accommodate up to three adults and 2 children (in the bunk beds!).

Since opening 3 weeks ago I have had three families booked in who have enjoyed their stays! Reviews can be found on the ‘Community’ section of this page.

I will soon be needing to advertise via other companies, which will mean these ‘early bird prices’ will increase due to the associated advertising fees on Air bnb so please do contact me if you are interested in a weekly summer holiday booking! Prices start from £500 based upon 2 adults for 7 nights during the school holidays at the end of July into August. (Additional charge for up to 5 occupancy).

Please feel free to share with friends and family. Thank you all for your continued support! 😊❤️

Sorry, no dogs, no pets, no smoking and no wild parties!

Please do like and share this post with any friends and family you know who may be interested. I’m trying to keep prices down for everyone by advertising via word of mouth to start with and avoid the fees of large companies, so sharing of this post is really appreciated.

Thank you all so very much for your continued support and kind words about my decorating!

Last night’s peaceful walk by the cottage heading East along the Humber Viking Way long distance walkway to Pebbly Beach.
It’s a little spot about a mile away.
Passed my neighbours the swans at Far Ings nature reserve too. 🦢
I really do love it here in Barton-upon-Humber! 🧡💛😍🌅
