  • 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.

Powered cement/asphalt RV campsite

Liked Layout of the site and size of pitches was great. Views over the fields and yet only a short walk to the cafe/bar onsite. Modern heated individual shower/toilets with hot water and no queues. Just a £10 uber ride to Lincoln which was well worth a visit. Fab views of the red arrows practicing too.

Disliked No fault of the site, but no path on road as you left the site which limited access to villages by foot (safely).

Powered cement/asphalt RV campsite

Liked Great bar and restaurant. Food was excellent and reasonably priced. Log fire.

Disliked Could do with better signings for water and grey waste. Plus some plonker was parked up against it so we had to borrow water from a serviced pitch.

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.

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.
