  • 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

This well-kept park gets high marks for spacious, level sites, clean, warm facilities, and friendly, helpful staff. The on-site cafe and bar are popular for good food and drinks. Peaceful setting with lakes offers great dog walking and fishing. Most guests enjoy their stays and plan to return, though some mention the nearby railway line can be noisy, and occasional issues with WiFi or shower temps.

Liked Convenient location to where we are purchasing a property.
Cleaners work hard to try and keep Loos clean after fishermen trudge through with muddy boots.

Disliked Muddy roadway for motorhome pitches. Not allowed to park a tow car on your pitch. Shower/toilet block looks modern from the outside, but inside, very dated. Very stiff locks on doors. Showers luke warm push button type. Need de scaling. Too many dogs off leads even though there are plenty of signs for dogs to be kept on a lead. More geared up for caravans as there is no motorhome service point.

Liked Everything about this site was excellent, massive pitches

Disliked WiFi I don’t mind paying a small fee for WiFi but it didn’t work, it kept going on and off.
The site was really nice and we had a lovely meal and nice relaxing night.
But if you are going to charge for WiFi please make sure it is reliable.

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.
