  • Peaceful park five miles from Skegness
  • Next to Burgh le Marsh at the foot of the Lincolnshire Wolds
  • Well-stocked fishing lake on site
It’s not all about the seaside at Lincolnshire’s Skegness… Although the sand there is indeed fine, so also is the peaceful and remote location of Jockhedge Touring Park, on 25 acres of greenery five miles from Skeggy and next to the ancient village of Burgh le Marsh at the foot of the Lincolnshire Wolds. Since Jockhedge opened for its first season in 2014 it has assembled accolades for its spick and span facilities including its modern, bright luxury shower and loo block with underfloor heating, hairdryers, hand dryers, shaver points and separate male and female showers (the staff can open a family bathroom for you if you’re on site with the kids). Pitches are equally well-maintained and come with electric hook-up, water and foul/grey water drainage on each. Supplies and food are well sorted nearby: a café, mini supermarket and petrol station are within five minutes’ walk, and Burgh le Marsh has award-winning restaurant The Windmill, plenty of food pubs and several shops including the highly recommended Holmes butchers. Just outside the village, the farm shop at Lyndhurst Garden Centre sells locally sourced fruit and veg. Jockhedge also has a well-stocked fishing lake, and an impressive looking adventure playground for mini explorers complete with swings, seesaw and a most enticing-looking wooden playhouse: do see if Dad can squeeze in there too.

Fully-serviced hardstanding and grass touring pitch

Liked Everything about this site was outstanding. Immaculate facilities. So clean.
Pitches were lovely and level.
Lady in office was so friendly and helpful.
We had a problem with our electrics and she contacted electrician straight away , came out within the hour . (After hours) Sorted it.
She came round next day to see if we were ok , so thoughtful and helpful.
The lake and surrounding areas were well looked after.
The site was lovely and peaceful. Just what I needed as I lost my dad 12 weeks ago and I just needed time for myself to chill and relax and I certainly did that.
Thank you

Fully-serviced hardstanding and grass touring pitch

Liked Jockhedge suited us to the ground - a good sized pitch, quiet site with excellent toilets/showers, although having to press the shower every six seconds was a bit of a pain. The site is in walking distance of a couple of pubs (the Fleece Inn does excellent meals) but it's more than the 10 minutes the site claims. More like 15 to 20. Would definitely go to Jockhedge again.

This is a brilliant site the facilities are spotless

Fully-serviced hardstanding and grass touring pitch

Liked This is a beautiful site was well and truly impressed . Nice and quiet loads of places to take your dog or dogs for a walk if your into fishing a nice lake nearby. All pitches are fully serviced,Plus all the facilities are spotless what a find this place . I've been to loads of different caravan sites and this one takes some beating . The pubs nearby are dog friendly. I have already booked to stay here over Xmas plus I will be booking to have our wedding anniversary here .
When I booked this site through pitchup.com there was a question is there anything what the site could help me I asked if it was possible to be close to the toilets because I have a stoma and at night can be very active I couldn't of been much closer pitch 2 right next to . Can't wait to come again well pleased .

Disliked There's nothing to dislike brilliant site

Beautiful place, picturesque, close to Skegness.

Fully-serviced hardstanding and grass touring pitch

Liked The contact from the friendly staff. They rang us a few times that week and were really nice and had great communication.
Tree swing for the children in the trees was a lovely touch. They had so much fun on this. Also the place was lovely for a visit in the spring time with all of the daffodils. We had a beautiful view from every single window. The grounds were kept up to really well and really well maintained. Very quiet site . The toilets were pristine and modern. There were many ducks that were so friendly and came onto the pitches which was a beautiful touch.
Also really close to Skegness and Ingoldmells for activities.

Disliked The children’s park was in bad condition. There was excessive bird and duck poo all down the slides so they were in unusable condition. Some of swings were broken and unsafe to use.
We were close to the open lake - which was stunning - but for us was an opportunity of danger with a small child so would recommend this site to families with older children rather than little ones ☺️

Really well run and lovely setting.…

Local attractions

The long sands of Skegness and neighbouring Ingoldmells are both five miles from Jockhedge Touring Park, and both have a lot more to do after soaking up sun on the beach. Soar around Skegness via kitesurfing or waterskiing; lessons and wetsuit hire are available for brave beginners at Skegness Water Leisure Park. Tiddlers can try splashing about under the sprinklers of the Fairy Dell paddling pool by Skegness’s boating lake or toddling around the tots’ area at Captain Kids Adventure World indoors on the Grand Parade, one of several indoor play centres on this part of coast. Also at Skegness, the Natureland Seal Sanctuary and National Parrot Sanctuary are colourful options for rainy days: if the kids want to get their beaks into more exotic feathered things, Squawk on the Wild Side at Burgh le Marsh’s Lyndhurst Garden Centre has regular shows and displays. The Gibraltar Point National Nature Reserve, from the southern end of Skegness along the coastline, is where to see birds in their natural environment along its three-mile stretch to the Wash. For all creatures great and small, Hardys Animal Farm at Ingoldmells can be used to calm down at after the jaw-dropping rides of Fantasy Island, which has the world’s longest suspended rollercoaster as well as Europe’s longest looping rollercoaster. Europe’s biggest indoor market is here too (at Ingoldmells, not the rollercoaster): it’s a fairly sure bet that all ages will find something to bring home among its 220 stalls. If not, go to Alford wallet in hand: the ancient market town has a famed farmers’ market once a week, craft markets twice a week in summer, antique shops and Alford Pottery. A bucketful of seaside and market towns are easy to reach from Skegness, such as the ‘bathing beauties’ (beach huts) of Sutton-on-Sea and Mablethorpe to the north; the capital of the Lincolnshire Wolds Louth, and the antique shops and twelfth century church of Horncastle to the west with countryside cycle path running along to Woodhall Spa. Stop off at Woodhall Spa for an afternoon: pine woods surround this viewsome Edwardian village and include a cottage museum and the Kinema in the Woods, reely impressive as one of the first cinemas in Britain. There are also two golf courses (the one at Woodhall Spa Golf Club has been called the best inland course in the country) and a squadron of aviation sites: the Dambusters flew from here and its officers’ mess is now Woodhall’s Petwood Hotel with Squadron Bar. Finally, take at least a day in Lincoln, an hour’s drive from Burgh le Marsh, for its Da Vinci Code cathedral, the Magna Carta at Lincoln Castle and yet more shopping among its cobbled streets.
