Travel giant says Lincolnshire is one of fastest-growing UK holiday destinations

Lincolnshire has been listed as one of the fastest growing UK holiday destinations, according to travel giants Expedia.

They say based on searches for hotel stays in 2023, Lincolnshire has seen a 70% increase in people looking to visit the county.

The Visit Lincolnshire website also saw excellent growth in 2023. The website has achieved an increase in user traffic up 61% in 2023 compared to 2022.

Cllr Colin Davie, executive councillor for economy and environment and the county council, said: “Lincolnshire has always been known as a destination for our fantastic coastline and historic city, but we’re working hard to put the whole county on the map for tourists. In our beautiful countryside and busy market towns, there are truly unique experiences including cycling, walking, golf, birdwatching, manor houses, historic airfields and independent shops. The list goes on! Our Visit Lincolnshire website had more than a million views last year as visitors are inspired to book their stay.”
