Beautiful evening
Beautiful witham river our pod and touring field are on the river bank
Hardstanding and grass pitches
New tour field upgrade is all finished and looking amazing - 19 hard-standing pitches

  • Scenic park on the river Witham, 10 minutes' drive from Tattershall
  • A 35-minute drive from Lincoln and 15 from Tattershall Farm Park
  • Playground, river fishing, waterside walks and pub-restaurant on site
What a lovely Lincolnshire location this is – dog-friendly Riverview Caravan Park’s location on the banks of the Witham river is a mighty scenic place to spend a bit of time… You’re on holiday, so you’d be quite justified in deciding to settle down right there by the river for lengthy periods in the company of a book and/or picnic. Keep that view in sight by heading out for a waterside walk or launching your own paddleboard or kayak from the boat jetty too. Keen to go fishing? The site has one mile of fishing along the river Witham, all set just 20 metres from the pitches. The on-site fishing is known for tench, carp and big bream weighing up to seven kilograms, as well as its fortnightly competitions. A modern gym is on-hand for those times when you feel like fitting in a good workout. For families, there’s a playground as well as an indoor pool (open during high season only) where they can play about whatever the weather. If they (or you) are plane fans, they may like to know that RAF Conningsby is a short distance away with a World War II museum. Fighter jets and the occasional Lancaster fly overhead, so it can get a bit noisy (especially during the week) but settle down for your own personal air show and enjoy the sights. When it comes to food, the on-site pub and restaurant is likely to be your go-to. Serving up homecooked food, it has a beer garden overlooking the river along with local entertainment such as singers, bingo and karaoke. On Saturdays and Sundays, it serves a full English breakfast, and on Sundays, there is a Sunday roast up for grabs. It also has a kids' menu. For out-and-about times, local town Tattershall is less than 10 minutes away by car and Lincoln city centre around 35 minutes.

What customers say

This is a friendly, well-maintained site with a lovely riverside location, popular with plane spotters due to its proximity to RAF Coningsby. Guests praise the clean facilities, particularly the shower and toilet blocks, and the helpful, welcoming staff. The camping pods are generally well-equipped and good value. While some minor maintenance issues have been noted, many visitors found the site to be a peaceful and relaxing escape and plan to return.

Jim M.

Electric hardstanding and grass touring pitch

Liked Quiet, peaceful location, in the middle of nowhere so take plenty of supplies to cover the amount of time you are spending there. If you like low flying Typhoon jets then great, they are just a few miles away at RAF Coningsby and they fly over the site Monday to Thursday, but not all day long. Nothing really for kids, however, Skegness is only 20 miles away.
has a nice indoor pool, also Bar/club house, Wifi only available in club and not on campsite .

Disliked Dog owners, not all, just those who can't be bothered to clean up their mess, maybe if they stuck to the site rule of "Keep all dogs on a lead" then you may just notice that your dog is crapping all over the place. Wasps seem to be a problem down the far corner but not too bad.

Liked Friendly staff and the clubhouse was good.

Disliked No hot water in the toilet block. I spoke to a member of staff a few times and all he said was it’s out of my hands.
A lady who was on the next pitch to us said it’s an on going problem, she had no hot water in May.

Electric hardstanding and grass touring pitch

Liked do enjoy this place, a place we do regularly visit
Clean site
Phill was lovely and site maintenance guy was also very helpful, helped to get tourer on pitch due to it been busy but was no bother to him at all
Kids loved the pool (didn’t want to get out)
Bar also a good price
Genuinely enjoyed the 3 days their apart from a small minor issue with some regulars on site

Disliked Not much choice on the restaurant menu especially with picky children, found it disappointing that they was charging £10 for frozen pizzas with only 1 option to choose from
(Ordered take out resulting in 2 caravan owners been very rude towards us stating it was pointless them having a restaurant on site when people are bringing food on site yet we already checked to make sure it was fine with phill)

Electric hardstanding and grass touring pitch

Liked Very friendly staff and locals. We've added 2 nights extra on our stay its been that good. Bar prices very reasonable and the food in the restaurant is very very nice. Indoor pool which the daughter has never been out of! Right on the edge of a river so a nice walk with the dog is easy. Added bonus of jet planes flying over now and then. Phill the owner is very friendly and helpful and will pop around and see you once you have arrived then leave you to get on with it unless you need help then you can easily contact him. Even the Sunderland supporter who runs the bar is a top fella!! 🤣🤣. Thanks so much for welcoming us, we will definitely be back.

Local attractions

Having viewed your own bit of the river, it’s likely that you’ll be enticed into getting out for a walk – especially when you learn that there are a couple of riverside pubs nearby. There’s more strolling to be done in Tattershall Lakes Country Park (five minutes’ drive), plus the chance to get a bit of watery activity at Just Wake wakeboarding centre. Take off to Tattershall (around 10 minutes’ drive) for a wander around Tattershall Castle – a proper textbook castle with a moat and 15th-century tower to potter around. Just outside town is Tattershall Farm Park (15 minutes), where egg collecting, sheep shearing and hanging out with hairy Highland cows are likely to meet with approval from tiddlers (and quite probably their elders too…). A day out in Lincoln (35 minutes) must surely be on the list – it’s got a real slice of history, being home to one of the four original copies of the Magna Carta. You’ll likely feel like you’ve stepped back in time if you catch a film at Kinema in the Woods (15 minutes) too: the flicks have been running since 1922 here, and there’s still a resident organist to provide the tunes.
