  • A 30-acre dog-friendly site a five-minute drive from Burgh le Marsh
  • Skegness and the coast 10 minutes’ drive; Louth half an hour
  • Four well-stocked fishing lakes; dog walks around the park perimeter
Feeling ready for some vitamin sea? Pull in at Sycamore Lakes Touring Site in Lincolnshire, 10 minutes' drive away from the Skegness seafront. There’s also a bus stop just outside the park with hourly buses to Skegness if you don’t want to get behind the wheel for such a short trip. You’ll hardly have to drive if you don’t fancy it, as the pitches also have access to a footpath through the back fields to the village of Burgh le Marsh. In the village, there is a heritage centre with a windmill and a restaurant, butchers, a post office, a bakery, pubs and a few small shops. It’ll take you under 20 minutes to get there on foot. Just watch, as a day can fly by at Sycamore Lakes Touring Site. The 30 acres of well-landscaped grounds have hundreds of mature trees and five lakes, including four well-stocked fishing lakes. There are excellent dog walks around the park perimeter and to the village. The grounds also have The Lakes Restaurant, which is already popular with locals. If you do want to scout out what’s further afield, there are five golf courses within a short drive of the site. Gibraltar Point National Nature Reserve is a 20-minute drive away, and it’s a five-minute drive to the very edge of the Lincolnshire Wolds National Landscape, which has pretty villages and stunning walks.

What customers say

Sycamore Lakes is praised for its peaceful atmosphere, spacious and level pitches, and beautiful well-maintained grounds. Visitors highlight the friendly and helpful staff, outstanding on-site restaurant, and excellent fishing lakes. Clean shower and toilet facilities are frequently mentioned. Issues raised include a lack of recycling options, occasional bin overflow, and distant water points, though many of these have reportedly been addressed by management. The site's proximity to Skegness is also a plus.

Charlie F.

Electric optional grass and earth pitch

Liked Clean facilities block which was really good. Nice peaceful location but close enough to get out and about. People quite friendly. We were a bit battered by storm Dave but it didn't ruin our weekend. Saw review mentioning how far away the facilities blocks were but to be honest it wasn't unreasonable for us at pitches 59 and 60. Nice flat pitches.

Disliked This is the first time we've had electric hook up so not sure if this is normal practice but there is a £20 deposit to make for the electric top up card. They provide you with £5 electric pre-loaded. I was under the impression that when paying for an electric pitch that reasonable electric costs would be included in the uplift in price between electric and non electric pitches. Not sure if this is normal practice across different sites or not but would have been nice to know before visiting, especially since other listing's on pitchup state how much electric is included and prices per kwh that you use over and above that. Also listing states that you need to leave my 10am, which can be a challenge when you're packing up the tent with the morning dew still present. WiFi is chargeable but we didn't use.

Electric optional grass and earth pitch

Liked Clean and tidy showers and toilets. Like the music in there!

Disliked Facilities are so far away from the grass pitches, caravans and seasonal caravans are next to facilities when they have there own. The smell at the men’s facility.

Local attractions

In addition to wide expanses of sand, Skegness (10 minutes' drive) has the seafront Pleasure Beach, an amusement park with a Ferris wheel and thrill rides. If roller coasters are not your speed, try the attractions at Skegness Pier (from escape rooms to climbing walls), or head to Natureland Seal Sanctuary, where you can also see penguins and meerkats. With a thrice-weekly market, lively Louth (half an hour) is a good spot to stock up on artisanal foodstuffs. Just west of the town is Hubbard’s Hills, a lush park popular for picnics on the banks of the River Lud. Louth is also the gateway to the Lincolnshire Wolds National Landscape. The university city of Lincoln (an hour) has an imposing Gothic cathedral dating back to the 11th century, and a castle commissioned by William the Conqueror. Walk along the ramparts for splendid views of the city, or climb up the appropriately named Steep Hill, a cobbled street lined with stone cottages and independent shops.
