  • Spacious adults-only site in the Lincolnshire Wolds, with fishing pond
  • Within 40 minutes' drive of medieval Lincoln and Mablethorpe beach
  • Pub with food five minutes' drive away; 15 minutes from Market Rasen
Tucked into the Lincolnshire countryside, Little Owls Caravan and Camping is a memorable outdoor experience 15 minutes' drive from Market Rasen. Set over 12 acres of level, well-drained paddocks, this peaceful, adults-only spot has an array of facilities, including a washing-up area, a chemical disposal point and a water and waste point, along with a luxury shower and toilet block and a laundry facility. Stretch out, enjoy the peace and the views, and listen out for the plentiful population of local owls. Tucked away among all this, there's also a fishing pond, which guests can use for an extra charge. Suited to folks who want a quiet getaway, the site is keen to make the site as peaceful an experience as possible. A pub with food is a five-minute drive away in South Kelsey, and further options for eating, drinking and stocking up are in Market Rasen. Market Rasen is at the top of the 69-mile Lindsey Trail, a combination of paths, bike tracks and bridleways through Domesday-book villages and even older woodlands, past Tennyson's birthplace and Neolithic long barrows down to nature-filled wetlands.

What customers say

This peaceful, relaxing site earns consistent praise for friendly owners & super clean, modern facilities (especially new washrooms). Spacious spots & abundant wildlife are big pluses. Some find older facilities distant, pitches uneven, and dogs occasionally bark. Highly recommended!

Primitive grass tent or trailer tent campsite

Liked The wild meadow field, very peaceful and quiet, calming views, adult only, very clean facilties, local walks.

Disliked We would have benefited from the grass being cut as there were patches of nettles throughout the field where you walk.

Mixer taps would work better as hot water was very hot.

Katrina S.

Primitive grass tent or trailer tent campsite

Liked When I arrived I was immediately warmly greeted by one of the hosts, shown around the site and given a choice of where to park. A beautiful quiet setting with just the sounds of nature and birds and a little pond in the back field to enjoy. Place lives up to its name with the owls at night. Facilities were spotless, the scenery was perfect. I look forward to staying again in the future

Disliked No dislikes.

Karen M.

FHU grass campsite

Liked Lovely spacious pitches. The new toilet and shower block is fabulous! The owners are obviously investing in the site, even adding attractive fencing around the perimeters. We were grateful for the shade from the trees during the heatwave! Would definitely recommend and will be back!

Disliked Would prefer that electricity wasn’t metered, although it wasn’t overly expensive for our stay. Maybe a slightly longer hose on the chemical toilet disposal tap.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you for taking the time to leave such a positive review, we really appreciate it.
The hose on the chemical toilet disposal tap is a standard length set by Anglian Water so I'm afraid this can't be changed.
We are so pleased that you enjoyed your stay and look forward to welcoming you back in the near future.

Tranquil, friendly staff & other campers. Flat pitch, nature haven

Local attractions

The Lincolnshire Wolds National Landscape is big on views and full of bumper opportunities for walking and cycling. Market Rasen, whose weekly markets have been a crowd puller since medieval times, is also a handy point to join bigger bike routes like the Viking Way from Humber Bay to Oakham and the coastal Hull to Harwich path. If you prefer watching others do the running, the racecourse has fixtures all year. For the beach, beetle over to Cleethorpes (40 minutes) for all the sand and candy-floss-fuelled stuff seaside trips are made of. Quieter Mablethorpe is an hour away, with a population of seals in the nearby sanctuary and slides as well as cyclone spinning wheels at the indoor Aquapark. For historic days out, loaf over to Lincoln (half an hour) to see the 11th-century castle, 12th-century cathedral and its town centre of steep winding alleys. The International Bomber Command Centre (40 minutes) records and remembers the part Lincolnshire played in World War II, and at a similar distance, Grimsby Fishing Heritage Centre explains a still-living but much changed local way of life. It’s a fine place for fish and chips too.
