Not the sites fault but the pub was closed due to flooding which is about 20m away and has a great reputation. Woodhall Spa is a good hour walk away. The new owners were fantastic and we even got a dozen fresh eggs. Fishing looked great and plans for some additions are ongoing. The hampers from a local producer are planned. Some great walks from the site. A great little spot.

Hiya Scott, it was lovely to meet you both. The pub is now back open and the food is still amazing. We now have our very own chickens and hopefully some eggs soon. We hope to see you again soon. Fiona and Paul 😊

Things to do on site and in the Woodhall Spa area
Close to the Bain River, ideal for walking and cycling trails with Kirky Moor within easy reach and offering guests plenty of paths to explore. The site is also ideally located for exploring Woodhall Spa which can be reached in under five minutes by car, a pretty town surrounded by woodland- the 'Kinema in the Woods' is a must too!
The fishing lake onsite is 1.75 acres and is well stocked so every guest can enjoy it. However, if fishing isn't for you, just enjoy the peace and tranquillity, keeping an eye out for the resident barn owl and kingfishers. There are plenty of dog walks nearby along the river Bain or within the forest.
Lincoln can be reached within a 40 minute drive, perfect for a day out, a city full of heritage and culture. Visit the cathedral and admire the medieval architecture or spend the day wandering the cobbled streets dipping in and out of the shops and cafes.
Other nearby attractions include:
- Thorpe Camp Visitor Centre (10 minutes)
- Horncastle (10 minutes)
- Coningsby (10 minutes)
- Lincolnshire Wolds (30 minutes)
- Skegness (40 minutes)
