  • Serene site inside an orchard and garden in the Lincolnshire Fens
  • Shrubberies Nature Reserve and Holbeach town under a 10-minute drive
  • Barbecues and campfires are permitted around the grounds
How best to sum up the setting of Home Farm? Secluded yet easy to reach – so, all in all, a fine option for those seeking something of the outdoorsy experience without veering too far off grid… Pitches here sit behind a residential property, with each given a generous portion of space in the two-acre garden and orchard, and views over fields and farmland. The vibe is all remote and secluded, but it's also handily a couple of minutes by car from the A17, for speedy access to walks in the Lincolnshire Fens. Choice spots nearby include pastures and pond of The Shrubberies Nature Reserve, less than 10 minutes away by car. Just as convenient for those who don’t want to venture far are Holbeach market town’s supermarkets, pubs and other amenities (with a café for fry-ups and a farm shop for barbecue goodies around a mile or so away) To follow up supermarket sweeps with rifling the racks, Spalding and its Springfield Shopping Outlet are 35 minutes’ drive – water taxis are also available around here for bobbing up and down on the Welland River. Birdwatchers will no doubt prefer to keep binoculars poised and head to one of the local birdlife haunts – the marshlands of The Wash are about three miles away, and the site is also within easy reach of RSPB Frampton Marsh and the trails around Peter Scott's historic lighthouse (part of a cracking 13-mile ramble from Kings Lynn to The Wash) . The beauty of Home Farm is its remote and restful feel – even though it’s placed close enough to the farmhouse for security – so there are no facilities here apart from an outdoor toilet.

What customers say

This basic, tranquil campsite in a secluded orchard is praised for its peaceful atmosphere and friendly owners. Guests appreciate being allowed campfires and the clean, proper toilet facilities. Some note the proximity to the A17, occasional dog barking, and the need to bring own toilet paper. No showers are available, which is noted as part of the back-to-basics experience.

Field non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked Secluded small orchard behind an old farmhouse, this little site was a gem of a find.
Situated just out of Holbeach its a very basic and informal site with just 1 toilet (proper one) and a washbasin kept clean during my stay. On arrival pick your spot, no need to check in.
I was a lone motorcycle camper and stayed 3 nights while touring the North Norfolk coast and South Lincolnshire.
It was absolutly ideal as a base sourcing food to cook and a few beers from Holbeach Aldi at the end of a days riding to chill, read a book and wind down for the next days journey.
I missed not having a shower but body wipes and a wash at the sink is good enough for 3 nights...(I am a northerner)!
I stayed up well after dark as there is no light pollution, a clear sky with a full moon was not to be missed. Midges were present but armed with skin wipes and spray they kept well off (or they just didnt like unshowered Northerners)?
The owners are very friendly as are the two huge Akita type dogs that will bark 1st time they see you but once they get to know you they ignore you (although "Grey" the biggest of the two didnt want to let me off the hook) He barked at me right up to the 3rd night. I finally got to meet him that evening with his owner and he was well up for a petting (the dog that is) then just laid quiet as I chatted to the site owners.
Thought I had cracked it when I walked to the toilet next morning and Grey completely ignored me, only to have a go at me again on my way back 🤦😂

Disliked If the wind is coming from the south/east you can hear the traffic on the A17.
Grey does not like unwashed Northerners!.....other than that would have given a 10.

Field non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked Lovely little site with a bit of a magical feel as you approach through narrow trees. Stayed here for one night over the bank holiday weekend with our roof tent. Booked very last minute arriving within a few hours of booking, no issues. Back to basics, turn up, choose somewhere to pitch and enjoy.
Facilities consist of one single toilet (proper bog, not a portaloo) which was kept clean but I imagine it could be busy when there are more people on the site.

Disliked Two big dogs in a pen between the site and the toilet block, quite intimidating for little children.

Liked Great layout, firepits allowed, clean toilet.

Disliked Only drawback is the road noise, the A17 is across the fields and was noticeable in the evening.

Field non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked A nice and peaceful site with a selection of places to camp up and the owner was very friendly and welcoming. The toilet was a proper toilet that was clean and well stocked too - not a cramped wobbly portaloo.

Disliked I can imagine it could get noisy if lots of people use the toilet at night because you have to walk past the dogs that are sleeping

Liked Private camping site.
Beautiful dogs who barked at us in the begging and after an hour they got use to us! They are gorgeous!!

Disliked Got lost finding this place, but owner had sent us a message explaining how to get there. We found the place only using 3 words.

We stayed through the bank holiday weekend for two nights. And it was quite busy. The toilet.. First day there was some toilet paper, in the evening it got finished and I was hoping that the owners will leave some extra paper for us. Wake up in the morning and there was no paper in the toilet. I didn't expect that, so first thing in the morning we had to drive to a shop for some toilet paper..
We found paper in the toilet only the last day 10min before check out. Would be lovely to at least know that you have to have your own toilet paper.

Also we have left the message on the booking for the owner asking about fire pit and some wood as we do that for all our camping sites. Of course we haven't received any info back. So good that we took our small fire pit, otherwise we won't be able to have some fire. More communication from owner would be much appreciated next time.

Local attractions

Brought the kids with you on your country hol? Within a 15-minute drive of Home Farm are Baytree Owl and Wildlife Centre for meets and greets with nocturnal creatures, a crazy golf course for family tournaments and the Fun Farm indoor play centre for rainy days. If it’s grownup times you’re after, stately homes such as Ayscoughfee Hall Museum and Peckover House (along with their lush gardens…) are under 25 minutes away; alternatively, you could swing by North Ings Farm Museum to learn about the agricultural history of the area through its displays of tractors, machinery and commercial vehicles. For sandy sessions on the coast, the beaches around Hunstanton are less than an hour’s drive away – if you detect a hint of lavender in the area, that’s because around 100 acres of fields growing the stuff (plus a centre with an oil distillery, gift shops and a restaurant) are in this region too.
