This is a peaceful, adults-only campsite with clean facilities and spacious pitches. The on-site pub receives consistent praise for its excellent, home-cooked food and friendly staff.

Summary AI-generated from Pitchup.com customer reviews




















A lovely English pub in the quiet countryside.
Electric grass pitch
Liked We liked that it was an adults only site, so no annoying kids wondering about. It was a good size grass pitch. Delicious food was served in the pub at night.
Disliked It was a shame that the pub was not open for drinks in the daytime on Saturday.

Ten out of ten 👍
Electric grass pitch
Liked Cracking stay at the Eaves inn, lovely campsite with good facilities. The staff and locals at the pub were very friendly and welcoming. Buster (my shih tzu) especially had a blast, he got fussed by everyone and was given lots of treats which are free on the bar. The owner gave him a doggy iced cream and a local lady bought him a treat bag. He made a friend called Amber and didn’t want to leave. Never got chance to try the food but another camper told me that it was absolutely amazing with portion sizes being huge. Will definitely come back to this well maintained quiet, friendly site.
Disliked Having to leave 🤣

Really out with nature in the countryside
Disliked As others have suggested would be fantastic if the toilets were separate to the showers as could be waiting a while to use loo if both showers are being used and brought no facilities of your own.

Peaceful clean and relaxing perfect for getting away from noisy life
Electric grass pitch
Liked Super peaceful open space large pitches
Quick drive to local town for food shop but still far enough to not hear any traffic just some cows mooing occasional jet from the Raf base and pure silence of rural Lincolnshire.
Pub on site open half of the week for easy meal and drinks too.
Bathrooms perfect for those new to camping as its toilet sink and shower in one room
Free WiFi (not as strong at the back of the camp obviously as its far away)
Staff was super lovely and friendly definitely coming back even if its for a weekend getaway

Highly recommend
Electric grass pitch
Liked Upon arrival we met the owner who informed us the procedure of checking in. We also booked a table for Sunday dinner. We set our caravan up and then went to dinner. I have to say our prawn cocktail starter and roast lamb were absolutely gorgeous! The quality and quantity were exceptional! Our 4 night stay was perfect. Facilities were 100%. If you are looking for quiet and relaxing then this is perfect!
Disliked We wished the bar and restaurant were open more frequently as it is so lovely in there and also with quality food!

The area is nice and quiet…
Electric gravel touring pitch
Liked The area is nice and quiet (mostly)
Great display of F14s flying above as the training base is local so I’m told.
Toilet and shower area clean.
Disliked The only things we disliked was the fact no one even said hello , it’s apparently a self check in service. A quick hi how are you would have been nice but other than that it was okay.
Also wifi didn’t work, no biggy but could be for others .

From the manager: Thank you for your review although it is somewhat sarcastic. We in Lincolnshire are very proud of our RAF Heritage and to be fair they do not fly that much at night. These guys are looking after our country, so think about that. You booked your pitch at 5.38 on Monday 4th you arrived on Tuesday 5th you booked 1 night so you left on Wednesday. 6th. The opening times for the pub are not a secret and so is the fact this is self check in. You came on Tuesday when there is no staff here as such because the pubis closed and I take that as my only real day off . The password for the wifi is on the notice board and does work and free a lot of sites now charge., You pitched up really out of the way around the corner to the right .. 1 night late booking feel your having a bit of laugh.. Never mind
peaceful site, showers poor, no greeting on arrival.
Electric grass pitch
Liked Very quiet site & peaceful.
Disliked Grass needed cutting, showers poor, water just trickling and going warm to cold, only two showers & toilets for whole site.

From the manager: Thank you for your review . Grass did not need cutting it had been cut and really it has been so hot and dry the grass had not grown . I had someone complain why was the grass being cut because there was none . The water in the showers well I can just say the water pressure here is high but if if someone is filling up their water barrel, washing up etc the pressure will drop, when you are a town person you would not understand that. The site, I do not over book out so never over full . Check it out.. I did notice the accommodation you brought with you only scored a 3 maybe upgrade. Cleanliness here is 5 star you only scored me 3. Customer service, this is self check in choose your own pitch , easy going no pressure site , you did not come into the pub so I do not know how you can mark me with almost zero customer service . I am so pleased you do not want to come back because I have so many that do.
Would stay there again
