  • Small and peaceful site on a Lincolnshire equestrian farm
  • A 20-minute drive to Lincolnshire Showground; central Lincoln 25 mins
  • Direct access to walks in Stapleford Woods; dogs welcome
With woodland walks, cycle routes and fishing lakes all around, Grove Farm Camping makes a lovely rural retreat for visitors looking out for some peace and quiet in the Lincolnshire countryside. This small-scale site is part of a family-run equestrian farm just outside the village of Norton Disney – so as well as having peaceful and pretty surroundings you’ll also have horses grazing in the neighbouring fields (a lovely sight to wake up to, surely…). The farm is just next to Stapleford Woods, with access directly from the pitches for those who fancy a stroll through the forest or taking their dog for a walk in a safe setting. The emphasis here is on peace and relaxation, so the facilities have been kept on the low-key side – you’ll have access to a drinking water supply, a chemical disposal point and wooden bathroom cabins with flushing toilets and hot showers. Campfires and barbecues are permitted, and there are picnic tables where you can serve up your meals. The village’s popular traditional pub is a little over a mile away by car or on foot for those times when you fancy a pub meal or a local pint. Tucked away in the countryside this site may be, but it’s not cut off in any way – Newark-on-Trent is about 10 minutes’ drive away and Lincoln 25 minutes, so you won’t be short of shops and attractions. The farm is also easily accessed from the A1 and A46 so it’s a handy location for those seeking a stopover near to one of those main roads.

What customers say

This cosy, low-key campsite boasts roomy, level sites, some with picnic tables. The owners get rave reviews for being top blokes, always happy to help and make you feel at home. Toilets and showers are a clean, tidy setup, though a few punters reckon they’re a bit cosy with not much elbow room. Great spot for checking out the local scenery and towns. A touch of quarry noise from afar has been mentioned, but it's mostly a peaceful paradise.

Unpowered grass site

Liked Loved staying on this campsite - just six generous, well spaced pitches all with their own picnic benches. Hot shower, toilet and washing up area were all cleaned frequently. I was happy that rules about noise/ car movement were made clear up front which meant that everyone had a peaceful time.

There were lovely woodlands nearby to walk in. Lincoln and Newark were both easy to get to by car. I also went to Cleethorpes by train one day (from Newark station, but there’s one nearer at Collingham) - a lovely small sea side town. with the station right in the centre on the sea front.

Disliked Obviously nothing can be done about it, but be aware that sometimes when the wind was in the wrong direction, you could hear some noise from the A46 or the nearby quarry (probably only noticeable because the campsite itself was so quiet!)

Powered grass site

Liked This is a back to basics site hidden away in the lovely Lincolnshire countryside. Booking was super easy and great communication from the owner. We really enjoyed our two night stay here, very peaceful and we had everything we needed from toilet, shower and washing up facilities to a lovely big pitch with nice space between campers. We met the charming lady owner who came to say hello and spent time chatting and made us feel like our stay was really valued. Great walks direct from the pitch and a very close walk or drive to a local pub and a fairly close drive to local shops.

Disliked Nothing that we disliked at all, the toilet and shower aren't massive but they were more than adequate for our needs.
