  • Peaceful, well-kept park with six lakes, walking trails and wildlife
  • A 15-minute drive to Lincoln; half an hour to the Lincolnshire Wolds
  • Café-bar, wifi, play area, takeaway food and fishing
Rural roams are firmly on the agenda at Hanworth Country Park, a serene site dotted with pretty paths and six lakes around 15 minutes’ drive from Lincoln. And angling’s on the cards too – four of the bodies of water here, stocked with mirror carp, common carp, chub, barbel, ide, perch, roach and tench, are open for fishing. There’s also a café-bar to order takeaway food and drink (with a handful of tables if you fancy eating in). Travelling with the tiddlers? Let them roam free in the play area. Animals are also often seen scampering around the park, especially around the lakes and woodland: think buzzards, red kites, woodpeckers and kestrels, as well as brown hares, squirrels, hedgehogs and deer. Attempt to catch a glimpse of these critters while roving along routes through the country park, either on foot or by bike; a favourite trails is the famed Lincolnshire Spires and Steeples path, which runs through the park and ends up at Lincoln Cathedral. Closer by is the village of Potterhanworth (10 minutes’ walk), a peaceful place with a handful of amenities including a large playing field with a play park, a skateboard park and tennis courts. A pub’s in the centre of the village – handy for evening drinks – and there’s a bus stop plying the Lincoln to Sleaford and Lincoln to Boston routes for explores via public transport. Surrounding villages such as Metheringham, Branston, Heighington and Washingborough are all within five miles and have conveniences like food shops, inn, takeaways, cafés, butchers and post offices.

What customers say

Great spot! Spacious, clean sites, top-notch facilities. Friendly staff, decent cafe, and lovely walks. Fishing's a hit. Mostly quiet, though some trains can be a bit loud, and the showers could do with a freshen up. Solid all-rounder for the price.

SAMANTHA T.

Camping pod (comfort, pet friendly, twin)

Liked I Had been sent an offer on email to stay here so gave it a go whilst I had a free weekend and I’m so glad I did, what a wonderful place. It’s clean and well maintained grounds. The toilet block is superb, hot showers and warm bathrooms, kept clean by a friendly lady. We stayed in a camping pod which was cozy, warm and had everything we needed for the weekend, bedding, cups, plates and cutlery all provided with a view of one of the lakes. Dog friendly too with nice walks around the lakes. The bar looked inviting although we didn’t stay to eat/drink, polite lads working there provided me with my key and check in information. Good phone signal for the teenager. We visited Lincoln for one day and Anderby Creek beach the next, both stunning locations.

Disliked Only one thing to mention was the pod when we checked in had a very nasty strong smell of cigarette smoke which was unpleasant. I mentioned it to reception the next morning.

Powered concrete slab motorhome site

Liked Size of pitch, cleanliness of shower/toilet block, cafe/bar on site, friendliness of staff, price!

Disliked Only 1 option for vegetarian gluten free requirement in the bar. Wifi not great (only 1 hour free unless you go to the bar). Not usually an issue but also 4G phone signal poor so needed Wifi to make a phone call.

Fully-serviced concrete and grass caravan site

Liked Big flat pitch, very clean amenities, lovely café and bar and only about 6 miles from Lincoln city center.

Disliked Trainline is a bit close and can be noisy. Apart from that it is perfect.

Local attractions

Pootling around on public transport? The nearest train station is in Metheringham (five minutes’ drive) for catching a ride to places including Peterborough, Sleaford and Doncaster. Lincoln (15 minutes) has a larger station with access to more destinations, but it’s worth lingering in this lovely city for a little while before fleeing further afield. Don’t miss the castle and cathedral or the shops and eateries in the cobblestoned Bailgate area. Keen to blend a few historically minded expeditions into your stay? Learn all about the Second World War at the International Bomber Command Centre (10 minutes), a memorial and interpretation complex dedicated to the RAF force that helped bring D-Day about.
