I believe that the Dunholme lodge land owner is keen to start a Heritage room in memory of all those that served. He plans to have events soon. Maybe this would be a good time to visit. I will speak to some I know that helps at the site and come back to you.

With the link you mention to 617, you probably won't do better for a hotel than the Petwood Hotel in Woodhall Spa which has much memorabilia in one of the bars and many paintings, assuming it is in your price range of course. Its about 25 miles from Dunholme but is central for visits to BBMF at coningsby or Just Jane at East Kirkby
Please see the following threads as well for useful info

hope this helps

I am here researching life on the Isle of Man during WWI. Does anyone have any information about the physical culture on the island during this time?

I found this website for a link to the RAF Worksop website. My main research area is for North Notts & South Yorks airfields.
I am also a member of the South Yorkshire Aircraft Museum.
I served for 12 years in the RAF initially as an AATC at Wattisham, but then became a Mover at Brize Norton.
Regards Rad;)

Probably my best was being at Wattisham when the Battle of Britain 50th flypast was organised from there- never again would I see so many Phantoms on one dispersal.
