  • Family-friendly site on the grounds of a racecourse in Lincolnshire
  • Lincoln 35 minutes’ drive; Fitties Beach 45 minutes
  • Playground, dog exercise field, small shop and launderette
Fancy a flutter on the horses as a cheeky aside to your camping holiday? If so, Market Rasen Racecourse Caravan and Touring Site, in the northern stretches of Lincolnshire, might just be the place for you. This peaceful spot just over a mile outside Market Rasen (five minutes’ drive or a 25-minute walk) sits within the grounds of the historic racecourse, known for its chases and hurdle races. But it’s not all about equestrian sports at this splendidly green site, which welcomes families and hikers as well as racing enthusiasts. While the kids explore the playground’s miniature adventure course and make new friends, you can take your well-behaved canine buddy for a little run in the dedicated exercise field. Alternatively, venture a little further afield and roam along the forested trails in Willingham Woods (five minutes' drive), or head to the hills and valleys of the Lincolnshire Wolds National Landscape (15 minutes). There are information brochures on the local area in the reception building, which also has a book swap library and a small shop selling essentials such as milk, toiletries and ice cream (definitely an essential while on holiday). The site has a heated toilet/shower block with accessible facilities for disabled guests, plus a washing-up area and a launderette in case that ‘essential’ ice cream ends up on the kids’ T-shirts instead of in their bellies. For a more nutritious meal, lively Market Rasen has plenty of cafés and restaurants, plus shops and markets where you can buy local produce for the barbecue.

Liked Clean facilities, ideal location for events. Nice and quiet to just chill.
Sarah the owner was amazing, very friendly lady, who went above and beyond and rescued us when electric hook up lead was too short.

Disliked The doir to get into the facilities did keep sticking and if keypad removed would stop this.

Electric grass pitch

Liked Wonderful location, large pitches, excellent facilities and very friendly staff.
From the moment we arrived on site it felt good. Had a laugh and a joke with Sarah the boss.
The site is immaculately clean everywhere, the shower/toilet block has been decorated recently and is spotless. A dog walkers paradise, with walks everywhere and a large exercise field across the road. Very short walk into town , bit run down but everything you could possibly need.
Just a great site

Electric grass pitch

Liked Had an amazing weekend, such a friendly welcoming site, Sarah and her team are superb such a friendly welcome, spotless site, pitches are large, some lovely walks not too far away, and a short walk into market Rasen, bonus to have the race course just on your doorstep and enjoyed the walk around the center of the course, booked up for next year and might try and get back this year, nothing not to like.

Local attractions

The village of Tealby (10 minutes’ drive) looks like something out of a Merchant Ivory film, with small streets lined with pretty stone cottages and shaded trails along the River Rase. The village is the gateway to the Lincolnshire Wolds National Landscape, within whose farmland and hilly landscapes you might spot wildlife such as hares and herons. Attractions in Lincoln (35 minutes) include the 11th-century cathedral, with two splendid rose windows and a library building designed by Sir Christopher Wren. After checking out the medieval castle, head down Steep Hill (‘steep’ being the key word here), a cobbled street lined with vintage boutiques and art shops. The sandy expanse at Fitties Beach (45 minutes), on the Humber Estuary, is a popular destination for kitesurfers. Behind its vegetation-covered dunes is RSPB Tetney Marshes, whose mudflats and salty lagoons draw redshanks and hen harriers, as well as wading birds.
