Anyone with experience of living in/around Lincoln?

Hey folks,

Gonna be based in Coningsby for the foreseeable future so I'm looking into areas in commutable distance with all good local amenities.

Thinking Lincoln is looking best or maybe Grantham.

My girlfriend will be looking for work too which will likely be in Lincoln or she may need to commute to Nottingham.

Any experience or recommendations of places to rent somewhere is appreciated.

Thanks

Edit: oops I'm logged into her account so reverse girlfriend boyfriend thing lol.

Is it really this bad in Lincoln? :'(

Thanks for reply. Think I have a lot to look into.

I'm gradually getting used to Miles of straight bouncy roads and fields all round. Just looking for a nice get place to get back to away from work, with things to do in spare time .

Cheers for the replies folks.

We've had a quick look into a few of these places. We'll also need somewhere with good transport links to Notts/Lincoln initially as I don't currently have a car. Some of them look promising

I've been approached by a few companies already regarding my job hunt who seem keen, but they've been quick to point out the lack of infrastructure in Lincolnshire and how bad the wages are

The boyfriend (who wrote the OP) has been looking at houses for sale and it does seem relatively cheap which is at least a positive...
