Lincoln’s proximity to Nottingham and Leeds makes it an ideal place for families and commuters to settle down, who want to be close to a big city, but also crave a quieter and slower pace of life. If you’re considering moving to Lincoln then read on, as we’ll uncover the best areas to live, as well as the top things to do in this compact city.
One of the benefits of Lincoln is that because it’s quite compact, you can enjoy rural life without being too far from the city centre. Whether you’re after good schools, great transport connections, or dining destinations on your doorstep, rest assured there’s the perfect place for you.
Situated just two miles out of Lincoln city centre, Canwick is an extremely popular place to live. South Commons offers ample walking opportunities, and its proximity to the A15 provides easy access to nearby Grantham and Newark. A property here will cost you an average of £346,244.
This pretty village is an 18-minute drive out of Lincoln, and has everything you could possibly need, with a school, pub, church and post office in the centre of the village. Its proximity to Metheringham train station makes Dunston popular amongst commuters, with properties costing £444,750 on average.
Located five miles north of the city centre, the main street has plenty of bars, cafes and takeaway places, and is also home to Nettleham CofE Junior School, which was rated Good by Ofsted. Average property prices here are slightly cheaper, at £279,333.
For those who want to be in the heart of the action, Lincoln city centre is the ideal place to settle down.

For rural living, Waddington delivers. Situated next to the Royal Air Force station, Lincoln city centre is 6 miles north.

The average property here is on the lower side, costing £227,437.
Lincoln may be small, but it still has lots going on. Just walking around the city centre itself is exciting, with its historical buildings and charming tearooms, but there’s lots going on in the suburbs for you to explore too.
Steep Hill is – as you’d imagine – pretty steep, but it’s worth a climb to the top. Created by the Romans, it now houses cute tea rooms, quaint galleries, and local shops, but once you reach the top, you’ll be rewarded with the beautiful Lincoln Cathedral. Once the tallest building in the world from 1311 to 1549, its Gothic design is both impressive and imposing.
For picturesque walks, there’s no better place to head to than Hartsholme Country Park. Situated over 200 acres, the reservoir offers waterside walks, with a pretty cast iron bridge, or you can discover wildlife in the woods.
One of the largest Christmas markets, typically taking place at the beginning of December, it attracts over 250,000 people over four days. Enjoy a backdrop of the gothic cathedral as you peruse the many stalls, enjoying a hotdog and a glass of gluhwein, as you buy cute trinkets and gifts.
Housed in Victorian barracks, the Museum of Lincolnshire Life hosts nearly 250,000 objects, which show what life was like in the area from 1750 to present day, in addition to an interactive arts gallery. Entry is usually free, unless there are specific events on – make sure to see the star attraction, an authentic World War One tank called Daphne!
The oldest inland harbour in England, it’s a great place to relax after a long day of shopping in the city centre, with lots of cafes and restaurants where you can stop and enjoy a drink and a bite to eat. If you want to enjoy the view from the water, then take a trip on the Brayford Belle, which operates from April to October.
