  • Landscaped tourer park 10 minutes’ drive from Skegness, Lincolnshire
  • Golf course across the road; five minutes’ drive to Fantasy Island
  • Gravel pitches with electric hook-ups; bar and restaurant on site
Looking forward to a family-friendly Lincolnshire break for walking the Wolds, exploring the east-coast resorts or honing your handicap on the golf course? Step forward Poplar Farm, set in the village of Addlethorpe, with direct access to walking and cycling routes and a mere five minutes’ drive from Fantasy Island theme park at Ingoldmells. And that’s not the end of it, because right across the road is Addlethorpe Golf and Country Club, with a nine-hole course and driving range. With views over open countryside, hard-standing pitches at this neatly landscaped site are separated by hedges for extra privacy, and fully serviced for tourers and motorhomes; each has an electric hook-up and a water point. Other useful facilities include a sparklingly clean, modern shower and loo block, as well as a chemical disposal point. There are loads of food shops, pubs, takeaways and restaurants within 20 minutes’ drive. However, you don't need to go far if you don't want to, as there's also a restaurant and a bar at Poplar Farm serving food and drinks.

What customers say

This is a well-maintained, clean, and peaceful campsite offering spacious, level, and often fully-serviced pitches. Guests praised the spotless wet room facilities and the on-site pub/restaurant. However, several reviews highlight a lack of on-site staff for check-in and assistance, inconsistent toilet roll and soap replenishment, and issues with communication regarding the bar/restaurant's opening times. Some found the wet rooms steamy and lacked shelving, and a few noted difficulties with pitch access and gravel quality.

Non-electric grass touring caravan pitch

Liked I can't think of anything we liked on this campsite, shouldn't be allowed to open

Disliked One of the worst campsite experiences we've ever had.
There was no manager or staff present on site during our entire stay. If anything went wrong (and a lot did), there was no one to talk to or report issues to. It felt completely unmonitored and chaotic.
The toilets were absolutely disgusting clearly hadn’t been cleaned in days. Overflowing bins, and a horrible smell. It was unacceptable, especially for a place charging money to stay.
What made things even worse was how unsafe the campsite felt. Cars were driving way too fast through the grounds, with no speed limits enforced. It was dangerous, especially for families with kids around.
We also witnessed aggressive behaviour from other campers shouting, arguing.  with no security on site, there was no one to deal with it. We felt really uncomfortable and unsafe.
We will never return. Avoid this campsite at all costs.

Fully-serviced gravel touring pitch

Liked Appears a nice site on arrival, but that’s where it ends!!

Disliked It’s a self check in and basically a free for all!! People still being noisy till 1:30am, using pup tents which apparently aren’t allowed, another pitch already had 4 kids with them then their friends turn up with more and are just left to do whatever they wanted! Foul language constantly being used, absolutely awful, which is a shame because it looks a nice site when you arrive. We were booked for 2 nights but packed up after 1. If there was a warden or staff on site this probably wouldn’t be like that but it’s unmanned and when you eventually get in touch with someone they aren’t bothered!! Never again!!!!

Peter W.

Fully-serviced gravel touring pitch

Liked Bar and restaurant were good.

Disliked Unmanned unsafe site.
Once a group gets to know the gate code all their mates can get in for nothing..we saw four sets of travelling people get in.
Toilet blocks was filthy never saw any cleaners until fourth day.
Easy access for unbooked individuals to come into site.

Local attractions

Top of your Lincolnshire to-do list may well be a day spent on the rollercoasters at Fantasy Island (five minutes’ drive), while a close second might be heading for the beach – choose between the almost-deserted sands at Anderby Creek (15 minutes) or the quiet, sandy expanse at Sutton-on-Sea (25 minutes) for bracing seaside walks. Skegness (10 minutes) beckons to families for its fairground rides, mini-golf and amusement arcades. The kids will probably also adore the lizards in the Tropical House and wild cat encounters at ARK Wildlife and Dinosaur Park (half an hour), or meeting the talkative parrots and admiring endangered tigers at Lincolnshire Wildlife Park (25 minutes). There’s plenty of history in these parts too, what with tours of the atmospheric, 13th-century Bolingbroke Castle (25 minutes), birthplace of King Henry IV, and the photogenic ruins of Tupholme Abbey (45 minutes), abandoned in the middle of a field. Coming more up to date, you can tour the interactive World War II displays at the International Bomber Command Centre (an hour).
