  • Quiet, adults-only CAMC-members touring site on a Lincolnshire farm
  • Lincoln and International Bomber Command Centre half an hour’s drive
  • Sheltered grass pitches, wildlife trail and fishing on the trout lake
Set right on the edge of the Lincolnshire Wolds National Landscape, The Grange Certificated Location is a peaceful touring site available only for adult members of the Caravan and Motorhome Club. It’s set in a rural location on a working farm, and accessed via a quiet country lane a couple of minutes’ drive from the main A157 Louth to Lincoln road. With a backdrop of a gracious Georgian-era house, sheltered by tall trees and close to a wildlife pond, the small number of well-maintained grass pitches have optional electric hook-ups and space for awnings. Simple facilities include a toilet and shower. You might like to have a mooch around the farm trail to spy some of the local wildlife, try trout fishing (there’s an extra charge) at the lake or simply sit at the water’s edge and watch the sun go down. If you’re looking for something a bit more energetic, play a game of tennis on the hard court. The site owners are also happy to organise chalk-stream fishing, horse riding and walking tours of the Lincolnshire Wolds.

Electric grass touring pitch (members only)

Liked A lovely quirky site, quiet and very peaceful, lots of shade under the trees when the outside temperature was 32C, 20 min walk to the village pub to cool down mid afternoon and lots of walks for early evening with the dog.

Liked Small (5 large spaces) but beautiful site. Well maintained and peaceful location. The owners are both welcoming and friendly. There is one combined WC and shower which is clean and works well. I spent two nights here and on the second had a pleasant evening fishing in their beautiful trout lake a 15 minute walk from the site.

From the manager: It was a shame it was heavy rain then so the loo floor got muddy. We will put a mop and bucket in there so people can leave as they find, which is our policy.

Quiet, relaxed and friendly.

Electric grass touring pitch (members only)

Liked This site was very quiet and secluded and for most of our stay we were the only ones there ( there is only 5 pitches). I think the toilet may get a bit congested if the site was full but for us it was a perfect pitch up. The site was level, the hosts Jonathan and Sarah were very friendly , you had everything you needed to hand and I would recommend the kings head pub at Tealby if you fancied a decent lunch or dinner. The portions were generous and the selection was varied and appealing. If we are up that way again I would definitely visit again.

Liked The Grange was an extremely clean and tidy site with the added bonus of a shower and toilet. Host Johnathon pleasant and helpful , in fact we loved it so much we stayed a extra night and will definitely return.The village is a short walk away with an excellent pub and a very good village store which is an Aladdins cave. Countryside is stunning.

Local attractions

Being on the edge of the Lincolnshire Wolds, this site is heaven for walkers, who can follow the Viking Way, discover the wildflower meadows and chalk escarpments of Red Hill Nature Reserve (20 minutes’ drive) or hike sections of the Lindsey Trail between Market Rasen (15 minutes) and Horncastle (25 minutes). More urban days out can be spent exploring the historic city of Lincoln (half an hour), dominated by its medieval castle and Gothic-era cathedral. Learn more about the regional backstory at the Museum of Lincolnshire Life, and don’t miss the interactive exhibits and fine artworks at the contemporary Lincoln Museum. Fans of World War II heritage can pay their respects in front of the landmark memorial at International Bomber Command Centre (half an hour), or take a guided tour of military aircraft at the Battle Of Britain Memorial Flight Visitors Centre (35 minutes). There are Lancaster bombers on display at the Lincolnshire Aviation Heritage Centre (40 minutes), which also has a schedule of flying events throughout the year.
