Woolsthorpe Manor

Reviewed By pjags - Darlington, United Kingdom

We visited the house and orchard as we were traveling nearby. You do get a sense of wonder as this is the home where Issac Newton spent much of his time experimenting his theories. Although it is a small property there are enough objects to see as well as being able to experience how it would have been at the time he lived there. Staff are excellent small coffee shop with limited parking you will need to book a time slot.

St. Wulfram's Church

Reviewed By kensmoon - Lincoln, United Kingdom

A beautiful church taking pride of place in the city centre with its tall, elegant spire catching the eye for miles around. I was pleased to discover it was open and spent a while appreciating the superb architecture, including the wonderful stained glass windows, the font and the lovely blue ceiling in the chancel.

Guildhall Arts Centre

Reviewed By peterf688 - Grantham, United Kingdom

Two seniors took their granddaughter to the 'Panto' and had a thoroughly enjoyable evening. The tiering of the seats means that even smaller children can see well, and the size of the theatre gives a very intimate feel to the show. The show itself was superb, quality front line actors, and the supporting young people gave a fine display. Scenery is a little 'unstable' but for an truly wonderful evenings entertainment, it would be hard to beat. I would mention that we also visited Newark for their 'Panto' which was also very good, but we really believe that the Grantham one was better !!

I couldn't find the trip advisor page for the Stamford branch but I wanted to say that I had the most fabulous hours massage by Poppy! It was relaxing, the exact pressure I required and I came out feeling supple! I would 100% recommend Poppy and Auk Stamford and when Poppy works at the Grantham site, ask for her!
