  • Small Lincolnshire site next to a working farm with horses and sheep
  • A 15-minute drive to Lincoln; about one hour to the North Sea coast
  • Five minutes’ walk to a golf course; half an hour’s walk to the pub
Small in size but offering a big welcome, Branston Moor Campsite is a peaceful spot about seven miles south east of Lincoln (15 minutes’ drive). Close to the village of Branston (five minutes), where there are pub and supermarket amenities, this rural spot sits next to the owners’ working farm, so you may catch sight of horses and sheep while you’re out and about around the pitches. In addition to well-maintained and level grounds, Branston Moor has access to simple facilities such as a small toilet block with flushing toilets, showers and a washing-up shack with cold taps and a small fridge. Guests here are also welcome to build a campfire – as long as the weather conditions mean it’s safe to do so. If you like to play golf, the nearest course is just up the road (about five minutes away on foot); if that’s not your thing, there are lots of cycling and walking trails in the local area too, not to mention a pub in nearby Potterhanworth (about half an hour’s walk away). While many guests will want to stick close to base and focus on exploring Lincoln or the Lincolnshire Wolds, it’s pretty easy to get out to the coast too, since seaside spots like Mablethorpe or Donna Nook can be reached in about an hour by car.

What customers say

This peaceful, rural campsite offers spacious, level pitches and a relaxed atmosphere. Visitors consistently praise the friendly and helpful owners, along with clean, well-maintained facilities including showers and toilets. Quirky yet comprehensive amenities, such as a summer house with kitchen facilities, are a highlight. While some describe the facilities as basic and rustic, most found them perfectly adequate. The site's quiet location, surrounded by countryside, makes it ideal for a relaxing break.

Non-electric grass pitch

Liked Nice peaceful site, with plenty of space.

Summer house was a great place to eat away from the wildlife, and really appreciated access to a kettle, microwave and combination oven in the wash up area.

Nice clean facilities, toilets and showers. Plenty of picnic benches which they were happy to be moved around the site.

Really friendly and helpful owners. We will be back to explore north Lincolnshire more.

Non-electric grass pitch

Liked We liked the peaceful, spacious site. Roy welcomed us on arrival. The toilets were clean, and the showers worked well. There were nice pubs within driving distance.

Disliked A bigger washbasin, or a washing area, would have been nice.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you for your lovely review. A bigger hand washing area is on our to do list. The summerhouse for the campsite was out latest project.

Spot on.

Local attractions

Consecrated at the end of the 11th century, the cathedral in Lincoln has a spectacular vaulted interior and stained-glass windows, while Lincoln Castle displays one of only four existing copies of the original Magna Carta. On the outskirts of the city, Boultham Mere Nature Reserve is an area of wetlands inhabited by wintering birds. National Trust - Tattershall Castle (half an hour’s drive) is an imposing medieval fortress built in red brick. Its Great Tower is adorned with huge Flemish tapestries, ornate windows and oversized fireplaces. It is possible to walk along the battlements for far-reaching views of the Lincolnshire Fens. A day at the seaside is always a good idea, so head to the North Sea coast to places such as Mablethorpe (one hour), with a vast sandy beach popular with watersports enthusiasts, and the seafront Queen’s Park, featuring a paddling pool, boating lake and miniature golf. Donna Nook (one hour) is a breeding ground for grey seals.
