  • Small family-run site among five acres of green Lincs countryside
  • A mile from Sutton on Sea and within walking distance of Huttoft beach
  • Next to a riding centre and 20 minutes' drive from Skegness
Well now, this is a popular little place. 'Fab', 'beautiful' and 'brilliant' are but of a few of the plaudits that have been heaped on small, family-run and friendly South Farm Caravan Park, set deep in the Lincolnshire countryside a mile from colourful Sutton on Sea. Families, couples and solo travellers are all welcome here, and dogs would likely give the farm an approving woof too: many walks are nearby along the countryside lanes and fields, and the walks – and bike rides – of the Lincolnshire Wolds are very close by. The closest beach, Huttoft or Moggs Eye, has miles of dog-friendly sands for the pooch to let loose. If you think the kids would like to canter, riding lessons and a pony club are at the equestrian centre next door to the farm; if they tend more towards a seaside vibe, Skegness is about 20 minutes away. (And if after that you tend towards a gentler vibe, the long wide open sands of peaceful Huttoft beach are within walking distance of the farm.) Facilities at the farm include spotless shower and toilet blocks (these are based away from the pitches and require a walk) and a washing-up area. There's a small tea room open every day during the school holidays only and a games room.

Electric hardstanding touring pitch

Liked Lovely campsite for our first time in our caravan with 2 young children (4 and 6).
The site had a play area at the top end where we were located, which the boys took full advantage of! At the entrance near the cafe they also had a small softplay and a range of inflatables such as a bouncy castle, a gladiators-style podium and on the Sunday an assault course- again the kids enjoyed this!
The site was set in a quiet location and was easy to find and access. The workers were helpful and provided a welcome pack with lots of information regarding the site and local area.
We were at the top-end of the site and the toilet/shower block was near the entrance but this wasn't an issue as it only took a minute or 2 to walk to. There were plenty of drinking water stations too.
All in all a very good stay and would visit again!

Electric hardstanding touring pitch

Liked What an absolute gem of a find! This little campsite is pure magic. Our fantastic hosts, David & Karla, have created the perfect escape — small, friendly, and full of charm.

The tea room? Packed with tasty snacks and hearty meals that hit the spot. The games room? Dartboard, pool table… basically a kids’ (and big kids’) paradise. There’s even a washroom with everything you need — from dishwashing facilities to a washing machine for those longer stays. Oh, and shelves bursting with DVDs, CDs, and books to borrow.

Toilets? Spotlessly clean and well kept — a little snug, but more than up to the job. The pitches are brilliantly set out with a hard standing and your own grassy patch for chairs and BBQs.

If you’re travelling with kids, this place is a dream. There’s a fab play area, a soft-play wagon, and a whole host of bouncy castles! It’s a proper family-run site where everyone is super friendly — my little boy made so many friends that we ended up staying longer than planned, just to keep the fun going.

And honestly, the moaning about the toilets being “too far”? Nonsense. It’s a one-minute walk — the perfect excuse to stretch your legs after tea and cake!

All in all — an unforgettable stay, amazing people, and we’re counting down the days until we’re back in two weeks!

Disliked Nothing what so ever about the site, the phone signal isn't amazing but that added to the escape from every day life.

Liked The friendly hosts, the smaller size of the park and the bouncy castles and park for the kids. It was really useful that they had a washing machine and a cafe on site.

Disliked Lack of freezer for ice blocks.

Local attractions

This is a smashing spot for family and beach hols, with both Sutton on Sea and Huttoft beaches close by for colourful beach huts at the first and a peaceful relaxing vibe at the second. Skegness is an easy drive along the coast, and Mablethorpe and Ingoldmells are also easily accessible to the north and south. Among the many other activities near the farm are the ambles and pedals of the Lincolnshire Wolds or taking day trips to Lincolnshire's small market towns like Alford, where there's also a war museum and a theatre. Bargain hunters should also get along to one of Lincolnshire's many car boot sales, at Ingoldmells, Skegness and Mablethorpe on the coast and inland at Louth, Horncastle, Gainsborough and Hornbeach.
