Motorhome - Electric Grass PitchesMay 2023

We were welcomed by the very friendly owners Tasha and Mark who showed us the pitch and the facilities. Over the weekend they were both very helpful. Easy access to fresh water, bins, and grey/black waste. Well thought out site and very well kept with some pretty touches! Fab views over the fields with lots of wildlife to see. Had a lovely quiet walk to the pleasant village of Claypole which is roughly a mile on some very quiet roads with very little traffic. We had a fabulous relaxing weekend and will definitely be back!

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay

We had a bit of a nightmare due to the incoming storm and the bad rain and wind! We booked this campsite as a stop by on our way to the Lincolnshire Wolds, we had travelled from South East London in a rented motor home. When we got to the campsite, the wind and rain had really started to pick up. We didn't realise our booking had been cancelled due to the field being swamped but Mark the owner let us park up on the hardstanding just in the gates. He was an absolute life saver, super helpful and really friendly! We had no food with us and had just missed the shops, he brought us round some rolls, bacon and eggs and some beer for the evening. He came round to check on us in the morning to make sure everything was okay and to see if we needed an extension lead for our motorhome to plug in to the electric. We moved on the next day but would 100% be going back to stay again and would 100% recommend this campsite to anyone looking to stay in Lincolnshire! Beautiful countryside views and lovely owners 🥰
