  • Landscaped adults-only site with 10 acres and two carp fishing lakes
  • A 15-minute drive to Boston or RSPB Frampton Marsh
  • Dog-friendly; easy access from A16 or A17
Ten acres of space, two fishing lakes, two main roads close by for easy journeys… the numbers stack up pretty well for Walnut Lakes, in the Lincolnshire countryside just under 15 minutes’ drive from Boston. There’s plenty of space to relax at this park, and it’s all reserved for the grownups, as children aged 14 and under are not permitted on site. Dogs are very welcome, however, and can have a good stretch of the legs on the dedicated half-mile dog walk. As the park is so handily placed for both the A16 and A17, it’s also easy to get out and about to lots of other good places for a walk (whether you’re taking a dog or not…) The central highlight of this farm site is the two lakes, Walnut and Daisy – both fabulous spots for fishing (please bring the relevant licence along) or simply chilling out by the water and enjoying the views.You’ll get views across the lakes from all around the park too, if you’d rather hide out in your own little private corner for a while. This is a park with something of a rural atmosphere, but it’s also one that’s well placed for amenities – within a mile you can walk to a couple of pubs, shops, a restaurant and bus stops (for services to Boston and Spalding). The surrounding area has plenty more to offer in terms of places to eat, drink and shop as well. And of course, it’s well supplied with attractions for your days out too – have a look at the information on site for some ideas.

Lauren B. The reviewer booked through Pitchup.com

Power optional grass tent site

Liked: A nice little campsite. Well maintained with a clean toilet & shower block. We only paid £3 for electricity for 2 nights, such great value for money. The owner was a lovely lady who made sure to welcome every guest onto the site.

Disliked: Being surrounded by duel carriage ways meant that there was a constant hum of vehicles but we got used to the sound after a while. We wished there was a little more around the area and would have been nice to have somewhere for a walk but found we had to drive everywhere

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Sorry the road upset you it was bank holiday so traffic was busy its not a duel carriage way its the a17 main route to Norfolk you could have gone further back on the paddock away from the road. there are lots of yellow routes country single track roads around us but you obviously didn't find them but thanks for your review.

Daisy Lake power optional concrete and grass site

Liked: We just had a lovely weekend at walnut lakes such a pleasure not to have screaming kids running around, I would highly recommend this site for a quite adult break away perfect for reliving the stress of day to day life. The pitches are large enough to put your caravan and awning on hardstanding with a lovely grass bit next to you if you choose to put your awning on grass. Fishing lakes are a pleasure to be beside very relaxing. Thanks for a great weekend we will be back again

Daisy Lake power optional concrete and grass site

Liked: Lovely and clean pitches and facilities. Toilets and showers cleaned daily. Owners friendly and welcoming. Nice well stocked fishing lakes all near the touring pitches.

Disliked: Shame about the road noise the park is directly on the A17 . No wifi which is a shame.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: at the moment being in the countryside we cannot offer wifi there is no fibre connection in our area. However there is a o2 mast nearby which gives phones 4g signal

Perfect

Daisy Lake power optional concrete and grass site

Liked: A warm welcome. Decent sized pitch. Clean, hot shower . Nice views across the lakes. There is some traffic noise but you just kind of block it out after a while so it wasn't a problem.

Disliked: Just one tiny thing. The wheely bins would look nicer tucked behind some sort of divide.
