  • Small family-run site among five acres of green Lincs countryside
  • A mile from Sutton on Sea and within walking distance of Huttoft beach
  • Next to a riding centre and 20 minutes' drive from Skegness
Well now, this is a popular little place. 'Fab', 'beautiful' and 'brilliant' are but of a few of the plaudits that have been heaped on small, family-run and friendly South Farm Caravan Park, set deep in the Lincolnshire countryside a mile from colourful Sutton on Sea. Families, couples and solo travellers are all welcome here, and dogs would likely give the farm an approving woof too: many walks are nearby along the countryside lanes and fields, and the walks – and bike rides – of the Lincolnshire Wolds are very close by. The closest beach, Huttoft or Moggs Eye, has miles of dog-friendly sands for the pooch to let loose. If you think the kids would like to canter, riding lessons and a pony club are at the equestrian centre next door to the farm; if they tend more towards a seaside vibe, Skegness is about 20 minutes away. (And if after that you tend towards a gentler vibe, the long wide open sands of peaceful Huttoft beach are within walking distance of the farm.) Facilities at the farm include spotless shower and toilet blocks (these are based away from the pitches and require a walk) and a washing-up area. There's a small tea room open every day during the school holidays only and a games room.

What customers say

Great welcome & chill vibe. Owners are top people. Paddock's flat, plenty of room. Dunny & showers are spotless. Tea room's a winner, and it's close to the beach. Some gear's a bit old, but it's good value & family-friendly.

Liked Good location. Warm welcome. Pitches are level. Clean toilets and showers.
Please see below for advice.

Disliked Not really a dislike, just some advice.
The grass pitches are quite a distance to the shower/toilet block, so I would advise to take a portable toilet with you. Also you need to take 50p pieces for the 3-minute shower. Also take a 25m electric cable as my 10m wasn't long enough from my pitch.

Powered concrete slab caravan site

Liked The site was really well priced, and the staff on site were really helpful and friendly. Close to where we needed to be and the on site tea room was handy. Well kept touring pitches, and while the facilities were a little dated, they were all kept very clean and tidy.

Disliked Mens toilet facilities were a little dated and cramped. Also shower was 50p to use. No problem paying but I would prefer to pay a couple of pounds extra on the pitch price but have the showers free just so it's a little more convenient to use.

Liked Nice welcome on arrival, shown to pitch, all clean and tidy, for us we were near toilets. Good site thanks

Liked The fellow campers were friendly, the toilets and showers were clean, the tearoom was clean, there was a good variety of food on offer, tasty too. The owner who I met was friendly and helpful. There was thought for children with bouncy castles and outdoor games for free. There was plenty of water points, lighting for campers and there was a play park available.

Disliked The walk to the toilets from the pitch and the general tiredness and cleanliness of the games room, especially the camping washroom. It just needs updating, cleaning and tidying up/revamping.

Local attractions

This is a smashing spot for family and beach hols, with both Sutton on Sea and Huttoft beaches close by for colourful beach huts at the first and a peaceful relaxing vibe at the second. Skegness is an easy drive along the coast, and Mablethorpe and Ingoldmells are also easily accessible to the north and south. Among the many other activities near the farm are the ambles and pedals of the Lincolnshire Wolds or taking day trips to Lincolnshire's small market towns like Alford, where there's also a war museum and a theatre. Bargain hunters should also get along to one of Lincolnshire's many car boot sales, at Ingoldmells, Skegness and Mablethorpe on the coast and inland at Louth, Horncastle, Gainsborough and Hornbeach.
