Barholm and Stowe is a small, predominantly rural civil parish in the district of South Kesteven in Lincolnshire, set among the gentle arable landscape of the East Midlands. It comprises two small settlements separated by farmland and is within easy reach of the historic market town of Stamford, so it combines a quiet countryside character with reasonable access to local services.
Historically the settlements have medieval roots and the parish contains a handful of listed buildings and a parish church that reflect that long history; traditional stone cottages and farmsteads give the area a timeless feel. The local economy remains largely agricultural, supplemented by small businesses and commuters to nearby towns, and the community is small and close-knit - popular with walkers and those seeking a rural lifestyle close to good road and rail links.
