Entrance to the site

  • Family-run Lincolnshire farm with an aviation museum on site
  • A 10-minute drive from Sleaford and half an hour from Lincoln
  • Well-drained pitches with access to fields for dog walking
A flight simulator, a Vampire T11 nose cone and a full-sized military plane out in the courtyard… the list of facilities in place at Heath Farm Caravan Site is certainly a fairly unusual one. Then again, how often does one get to stay at a place that's also home to an aviation museum? (Not often is the answer… hence this place is likely to be a particular draw for folk fascinated by things that fly, or with an interest in military history). The museum in question is the Cranwell Aviation Heritage Centre, set in the old buildings of Heath Farm and free to visit. The family-run farm and its museum is in the Lincolnshire countryside just outside the little village of North Rauceby and 10 minutes’ drive from Sleaford, a handy spot for heading out to Lincoln, Boston and other towns, visiting relatives up the road at RAF Cranwell or sticking to local lanes for strolls between villages (or village pubs…). If your travelling party features a mutt, there’s plenty of space for them to get out for a walk in the fields next door. Pitches here are on level well-drained land with access to electrical supplies.

What customers say

This immaculately kept, peaceful campsite is highly recommended by visitors for its cleanliness, friendly and helpful owners, and level pitches. While basic facilities are provided, noted as spotless, the absence of showers is a recurring comment, though not a dealbreaker for most. Its convenient location just off the A17 and proximity to dog walking routes and local attractions, including an on-site aviation museum, are frequently praised. Despite slight road noise for some, the overall sentiment is overwhelmingly positive, with many guests expressing a desire to return.

Electric grass touring pitch

Liked Lovely friendly well run place .. fantastic welcome .. it’s very clear to see this is a lovely place to stay .. relatively small however plenty of room to move .. dog friendly with nice walking area , facilities extremely clean and well kept .. yes this is a working farm however this doesn’t impact on the wonderful peace and quiet .. everyone is very welcoming . An added bonus is the air museum on site which is well worth visiting ( you’ve get a warm welcome along with a wealth of info ( if you love aeroplane’s ) great supply of local cakes as well .. this was our second visit this year and truly lovely .. ( we’ll be going back next season )) treat yourself I promise you won’t be disappointed ..

Phill B.

Electric grass touring pitch

Liked Great little site with all we could need and well located for the local area. Easy to walk to surrounding areas and with a great museum on site. Very welcoming hosts, facilities are spotless and the grass on the pitches is nice and short. Well drained as per the description will certainly consider here again if in the area. Little diesturbance in the quiet hours although the crows start early.

From the manager: Thank you for a very full review.

Dennis S.

Electric grass touring pitch

Liked A small, quiet, clean and very pleasant site.
Have stayed here 4 years running and the standard never varies. T

Disliked The only downside is the lack of shower facilities.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: It’s very clear at the time of booking there are no showers. To add one would be costly as both electrics and septic tank would require an upgrade.

Lovely welcome, chilled vibe, spotless facilities, perfect for us.

Local attractions

If you’ve picked this place mainly for its aviation element, why stop there? Turn your holiday into a themed break by heading out to see more flying machines and memorabilia at Newark Air Museum (20 minutes’ drive), playing with the interactive displays at International Bomber Command Centre (25 minutes) and taking a day to follow the North Kesteven Airfield Trail around the area’s many current and former air bases. Time for a break from the sky-based stuff? Skip into Sleaford (10 minutes’ drive) to visit the free museum, see the Cogglesford Watermill in action and follow the themed trails to uncover the town’s arty and historic corners. Or maybe you’d rather stick to things that move at ground level? If so, the Lincolnshire Road Transport Museum (half an hour) is a good place to start. You might also spot rather smaller things scuttling about on a walk at Hartsholme Country Park (35 minutes) or the Natural World Centre (35 minutes), which also has outdoor and indoor wildlife-themed adventure playgrounds for the kids.
