The village of Aldwincle can be found in the English county of Northamptonshire and is set by the meandering River Nene, 12 miles south east of Corby. It is a small settlement with few amenities but lots to do if you love the great outdoors, as there are lakes and nature reserves nearby, and lots of opportunities to go cycling or walking through the rolling countryside. Anglers may like to note that Elinor Trout Fishery is just a walk away should you manage to snatch a few hours dangling a rod over a lake during your holiday.

Four miles away and just a 10 minute drive from Aldwincle is the settlement of Titchmarsh and is home to two pubs, a shop, and a nature reserve.
