The Queen's Arms – a public house on Isham Road. It serves a range of local ales and national beers. The menu is traditional and home cooked. The pub also holds regular live music during evenings from local bands. Events such as Open Mic Nights and Quiz Night draws a crowd.

If you'd like to treat your partner to a good meal, you can have a simple dinner at the pub. Also, if you want to make it more romantic, make sure to surprise them with some Orlingbury flowers. Or, if you're looking for a more dramatic flair, send flowers to Orlingbury to your accommodation – that will be quite the surprise and equally appreciated too.

St Mary's Church – built in 1843 on the site of a medieval church. The church has a very tall tower that is surmounted by a parapet and pinnacles, and it also serves as a local landmark.

The belfry of the church can be reached through a spiral staircase from the churchyard. It contains six bells which are all well-maintained and rung to announce services and to celebrate weddings.

Nearby Attractions

When you're in Orlingbury, take advantage of the fact that you're close by some of the best attractions in the nation. So why not drop by some of these and come home with lots of stories to share? That said, here's what you can expect:

Wicksteed Park – the second oldest theme park in the UK. It is divided in four areas: the playground, the fairground for children up to 13 or 14, the lakeside for water-based adventures and the arena which features the park's larger rides.

Broughton House & Garden – an 18th-century Georgian house that was the former home of E A Hornel, a Scottish painter and one of the Glasgow Boys. The house is dedicated to the life and work of Hornel and features a number of his paintings as well as those of his contemporaries. The library in Broughton House is vast and houses the world's biggest collection of works by Robert Burns.

Behind the house is a garden which is clearly inspired by Hornel's love of Japan. The garden is a blend of Eastern and Western horticulture and sculpture.

Lamport Hall – a Grade I listed property that is open to the public during summer. It's notable for its classical frontage and contains a great collection of books, paintings and furniture. The gardens here are equally impressive as well.

If you know you can't make it in town for the birthday or special event of someone dear to you, why not send flowers to Orlingbury instead?
