Dating in Lincoln
In shortLincoln is the county's hub, so it is often the fairest place for a first date. Uphill has the Cathedral and Castle, and downhill has Brayford Waterfront and the University of Lincoln. It is easy to start somewhere public and walk.
A first date idea
Up Steep Hill to the Cathedral
Steep Hill is lined with independent shops and old buildings, and if you follow the cobbles up you reach Lincoln Cathedral and Lincoln Castle. Take it slowly and stop for a drink halfway. Afterwards, Brayford Waterfront is good for a relaxed stroll.
