This route starts just over the road 😊.

🥾

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.

Finally, I managed to put up one of the new gates at the weekend! Made by a local gentleman in Barton-upon-Humber. Love the fleur-de-lys hinges I found to match the front door too! 🖤🤍🖤🌿🌳

In the midst of the social media blackout yesterday, I received an email from Airbnb saying I had been awarded the ‘Superhost’ status in my first quarter of hosting! 🎉🎉🎉
I really appreciate all the lovely comments I have had from guests about the house, decor and the welcome families get when staying.
Thank you to everyone that has chosen to stay at the cottage and supported the start up!
❤️❤️❤️
