The Eaves Inn

Small and peaceful adults-only site with pub and restaurant
A 20-minute drive from Skegness beaches, fairground and seal sanctuary
Within 25 minutes of the Viking Way and Lindsey Trail scenic routes

Country footpaths, home-cooked local produce and traditional ales, coastal walks and castles… half an hour’s drive from New York? No, there’s no mistake, but the New York in question is in rural Lincolnshire, as is the quiet, simple and very uncitylike Eaves Inn. As you may have guessed, there's a country pub to be found here... The site's at the back of a traditional country inn, open from Thursdays to Sundays to serve local ale from its cosy bar and a wide menu of eats in its restaurant. It's all rather scenic too, as pitches are in a wide field with views across farmland and fen, in the centre of the village of Little Steeping. Around the region, it's a 20-minute drive from here to Skegness. Shops and supermarkets are in Skegness and barbecues are allowed on this adults-only site, you can indulge in a bit of outdoor grilling any time you like. Work up an appetite by taking the dog for a brisk walk on the footpaths passing by the site. While the combination of pub plus field plus view is spectacularly simple, that doesn’t mean roughing it: a modern block combines hot showers, sinks and a washing-up area, all of it gleaming and heated.

Liked: I liked firstly everything about the place, spacious pitches , nice pub and very friendly staff

Disliked: On the website it says leave it by 12, but on the board when you’re there it says leave by 10, this was a bit annoying as my plans on the assumption I was going to leave by 11. And one very minor point on the website it says the pub will open half an hour before it actually does.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you so much for your review. I really do appreciate your comments. I have rectified the website opening times for the pub, thank you so much for pointing that out. The leaving time is 12.00 the board is just a guide. I really wish you had spoken to me or asked to speak to me about the leaving time I am so easy going about arrival times and leaving times. I do not over book the site so there is always spare spaces for people to arrive early or leave later. Look forward to seeing you again. Thank you again

Liked: The site is really quiet and out of the way of any busy roads, with a laid-back approach to arrival and departure times. You are not assigned a pitch and can choose where you set up, and we had no issues finding a spot on a busy bank holiday weekend. There is a pub/restaurant on-site, however we didn't get around to trying it as we had two dogs with us, but heard great things about the food! We were slightly anxious about having only two shower and toilet cubicles for the whole site, but they were cleaned several times a day, and we never had to queue.

Disliked: The grass is mulched, rather than the clippings being collected, so we were constantly having to sweep up grass that we had walked into the tent. We also had some slight issues with water pressure and the showers stopping when someone turned on a tap in the other cubicle.

Liked: Nice quiet site away from the busy life. Food in the pub was amazing lovely owners. Nice walks for the dogs

Disliked: Gravel pitches not laid out very well, toilets not always clean, smell of sewage when chilling in the sun. Be nice to have a sign in sight when you arrive. Lots of people asking us what to do when they arrived. These couple of things could make it perfect

Once you're on site, very peaceful rural location with level grass.

Local attractions

If seeking a taste of traditional seaside stuff, set course for Skegness for sands and dunes, fairground rides and pier promenades, and endearing encounters with the residents of Natureland Seal Sanctuary. For meetings of the furred and feathered kind, it’s 15 minutes to the Lincolnshire Wildlife Park, home to tigers, tapirs, lemurs and hundreds of species of rescued parrots. If you prefer your wildlife in the wild, make the half-hour journey to Gibraltar Point Nature Reserve, a prairie-like vastness of dunes and wetlands where you can spot terns and skylarks while walking the trails. For longer hikes and bike rides, Horncastle (25 minutes) is a hub for two major routes: the Viking Way links the Humber Estuary with Rutland Water over 147 miles of grand terrain, while the 80 miles of the Lindsey Trail focus on the chalk hills, woodlands and ancient history of the Lincolnshire Wolds. Wartime history lies thick on the ground in these parts too, thanks to the role played by Lincolnshire’s people and airfields in the Battle of Britain: learn more at the Aviation Heritage Centre in East Kirkby, the Battle of Britain Memorial Flight Visitor Centre and the International Bomber Command Centre (20 minutes, half an hour and an hour away). Whether birdwatching or battlements are your bag, Tattershall Castle (half an hour) is worth a turn around, with 15th-century show-off interiors, woodlands full of wildlife and lakes nearby for wakeboarding and watery assault courses.
