  • Dog-friendly site near Spalding and 20 minutes' drive from Wisbech
  • Outdoor playground; big screens showing major live sports
  • Heated pool and large patio
Hurrah, The Rose and Crown in Holbeach Hurn, near Spalding, is stunning pub site with a village bar surrounded by the Lincolnshire Fens. Families, groups, solo travellers, bikers and dogs are all welcome at this friendly Lincolnshire site. And as the Rose and Crown is one of the last independent breweries in the region, you'll be fairly certain of getting a decent pint too… The pub has all sorts of touches you'll likely like to see in an inn: there's a main lounge and a beer garden with covered seating along with more modern updates like big screens showing Sky and BT Sports. There is also a heated outdoor pool and an outdoor kids' playground. The Rose and Crown is run by Dougie, who wants his guests to have as enjoyable a stay as possible: he's always working on upgrades to the pub and campsite so there's often something new to discover on a stay here… Wifi can be picked up in the pub only (not across the entire campsite), but it can be a bit poor/slow at times because of the rural setting. A supermarket is five minutes' drive away for supplies.

What customers say

This campsite is highly recommended by families, particularly for its excellent children's facilities including a great pool and play area. Guests praise the friendly and hardworking staff, spacious pitches, and the quality of food in the pub. While most visitors have very positive experiences, a few mention issues with toilet cleanliness and the need for some updates to facilities, though the management indicates efforts are being made to address these concerns.

From the manager: Thank you for your feedback. We are pleased you enjoyed our location and service, but very sorry to hear about the condition of the toilets.

We will look into this immediately to ensure our high standards are maintained.

Electric grass pitch

Liked Our little girl loved the play area. Site was clean and tidy and owner was lovely. Placed us close to the play area so we could see our daughter from our pitch. Food in the pub looked really nice. Swimming pool looked fun and kids loved it.

Disliked Music went on abit late (11.30pm) but it was a Sunday on a bank holiday weekend. You have to pay for the showers. Didn't realise until 10pm and didn't have any change on me.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you for the wonderful 10/10 review! We are so glad we could pitch you close to the play area so you could relax while keeping an eye on your daughter. Bank holiday weekends are always a bit livelier and we often have live music, and we appreciate your understanding with the evening atmosphere. We do offer cash back at the bar for anyone who does not have cash or change for the showers. We do notify guests of the charge for the shower within our Pitchup details. We can't wait to welcome your family back for another visit soon!

Route directions

If you are following a satnav, it may well take you down Low Road; ignore this and carry on along Marsh Road, where you will see the Rose and Crown pub (bright yellow) on your right. Check in here, then drive for another 30 yards to reach the site entrance, again on the right. Please don't drive down Low Road as this is only a small lane which tourers and motorhomes find it hard to come down.

Local attractions

You'll find a fair bit to do within a reasonable drive of the Rose and Crown, like Wisbech and its Elgoods Brewery, gardens and maze 20 minutes away, and royal days out at Sandringham within 35. Both Hunstanton and Skegness are within about 45 minutes' drive. Closer to home are two golf courses and Spalding's Springfields Outlet Shopping & Festival Gardens, which also has a tourist point detailing local attractions. Spend a day around the Wash too for birdwatching at Frieston, Gibraltar Point and RSPB Snettingsham and a look at the RAF bombing range where visitors are welcome to watch the aircraft. Historians have the National Trust's Peckover House or the Octavia Hill Birth Place Museum, both in Wisbech, to wander around, and if you have kids along on your hol, they'll probably fancy wanders around Fun Farm, Alley Katz Bowling or the Butterfly Wildlife Park.
