  • Kids’ haven: pleasure pier, aquarium and theme park within 10 mins
  • Playground, pitch and putt, tennis and an arcade on site
Banish any visions of a stressy holiday stuck in hot cars and slow traffic out of your head… At North Shore Holiday Centre, a family-friendly Lincolnshire site 10 minutes’ walk from the centre of Skegness, you won’t have to travel far to stay busy once you arrive. North Shore is on the outskirts of Skegness, and there’s plenty of seaside resorty things to do within easy reach of the site: the sandy beach, pier and town centre are all within walking distance, and you’ll have to drive for less than 15 minutes to get to the museum, nature reserve, aquarium or theme park. There's tons to keep you busy on site too: perfect your end-game at the nine-hole pitch and putt, try out the arcade games, take the kids to the playground and go game-set-match on the tennis courts. Those with dogs should also be pleased to hear that the site has an enclosed dog area where they can be let off their leads. Feeling peckish? There are oodles of eateries within 25 minutes’ walk of North Shore, or you can settle in for a meal on site – call in to the fully-licensed bar-restaurant, then stick around for the evening’s entertainment.

What customers say

Great spot, close to town and beach. Staff are ace! Facilities mostly clean, but a few found them a bit old and noted shower temps. Families love the entertainment. Pitches are usually roomy, though some had noise and iffy Wi-Fi.

24 foot powered gravel caravan site

Liked Location

Disliked Sites dated, toilets blocked, overflowing, urine all over the floor, daily. We were unlucky as there were many Gypsy's there, they wouldn't move us as site was full, shouting till 4 in the morning, all drunk, spoiled it for everyone else, in the morning the site looked liked a 3rd world country, disgraceful, no security at night..... absolutely shocking experience for other families...

Powered grass caravan site

Liked Friendly staff on site. Close to Skegness centre. Close to a nice quiet beach. Shower pressure good. Well stocked shops, lots of caravan accessories.

Disliked Site and Facilities in need of modernisation. Elsan point is quite disgusting, quite a few toilet seats and toilet roll holders broken. kids play areas are very outdated and dilapidated. The “games area” was fenced off as unsafe. Quite alot of noise on site with a busy road, plenty of sirens for the week we were there. Unfortunately our week was also spoilt by the arrival of a group of “Irish folk”. Noise until after midnight, 1am and even 3.30am for four nights in a row. Security guard tried but apparently were given a very abrupt and unfriendly reaction from these “folk”. Litter was dumped by these folk too, they should not have been aloud on site. I saw police on two separate occasions visiting the campsite. Staff speeding around the site in vans and on a few occasions were quite clearly using their phones at the same time, driving right past our pitch. No Wifi for touring area.

28 foot powered concrete slab caravan site

Liked Location.

Very quiet on the pitches.

Please consider dislikes but these should not stop booking here.

Disliked Having to use a card to go to the loos / shower / pot wash. One card between to of us.

Cost of a beer in the bar and the volume of the music. Needs a quiet area. We used the bar once in three nights because of this.

Toilets and showers were not as clean as they could be, not enough hangers in showers and you are gonna come out wet due to space / floor / humidity. The showers were too hot for me.

Local attractions

Any stay at North Shore Holiday Centre should start with a thorough exploration of Skegness as there are loads of places within five minutes’ drive you’re going to want to add to the list. Kids will want to dive into the aquarium, the fairground and the brightly lit amusements of the pleasure pier, while grownups might have more appreciation for the Naturelands seal sanctuary or The Village, Church Farm open-air museum. Want something for everyone? The entire family should be entertained with trips to Fantasy Island theme park (in nearby Ingoldmells), the Lincolnshire Coast Light Railway and the stock car and bangers racing at Skegness Raceway, all within 10 minutes of the site. When you want to take your adventuring beyond the bounds of the seaside town, you can find peace 15 minutes away from the thrill rides and squealing tyres with visits to Gibraltar Point Nature Reserve or the flat Lincolnshire Wolds for cycling and walking trails, or by making a pitstop at the spectacular Gunby Hall and Gardens for a taste of splendour. For a quirkier outing, make your way a little further afield for a night at the Kinema in the Woods, believed to be the only full-time cinema in the UK still using rear projection for screenings. Screen one is home to an organ covered in 18th-century-style lacquered consoles and screen two has trompe l’oeil-style paintings of rural Lincolnshire on its walls. Don’t worry – the cinema may be old-fashioned, but the movies aren’t…
