  • Touring pitches at a 12-acre country park on the edge of Spilsby
  • Close to Lincolnshire Wolds walks; 20 minutes' drive to Skegness
  • Five fishing lakes on site, with bait shop and accessible platforms
If you like to have a fishing lake on site when you’re travelling in your tourer, it’s fair to say that you’ll probably be very happy indeed with a stay at Woodlands Fishery, on the edge of the Lincolnshire town of Spilsby. And that’s because this 12-acre country park is home to a peaceful carp and coarse fishery complex that’s got not one, not even two, but a splendid five different lakes for pleasure anglers to choose from. Owners Pam and Keiran always do their utmost to ensure this is a top-notch experience for all guests, keeping the lakes well stocked with carp, perch, bream, tench, rudd and other species. You’ll need to bring a licence along if you’d like to fish, and agree to the catch-and-release policy; tackle and baits are available at the shop, along with snacks and drinks, and there are accessible platforms so everyone can join the fishing fun. Not into fishing? No problem – there are plenty of other ways to fill your time nearby. The site is on the edge of the Lincolnshire Wolds, with lots of lovely footpaths to follow for scenic walks, and there are attractions nearby like the Lincolnshire Aviation Heritage Centre or the National Trust’s Gunby Estate. And as Skegness is a mere 20 minutes’ drive away there’s also scope for a day at the seaside. Closer to home, a 10-minute walk takes you to the town centre for shops, cafés, takeaways and the Monday market. Facilities on site include a launderette, a washing-up area and a toilet block with underfloor heating. Touring pitches all have electric and water supplies plus waste disposal.

What customers say

Highly-rated, well-kept spot with super clean, modern washrooms. Spacious, level, full-service sites face pretty fishing lakes. Owners Pam and Kieron are praised for being friendly and helpful. A short walk to Spilsby's shops and pubs. Great for fishing, but non-anglers love the peace and beauty too. Occasional goose droppings and spotty phone/Wi-Fi are minor.

Liked Everything about this little hide away is lovely. We don't fish. But it was so nice to just walk around the lakes.
Everything was spotlessly clean and nothing was any trouble for the staff.
A very short walk into Spilsby.

Disliked Absolutely nothing.

Liked The Woodlands fishery site was very good really well laid out with good serviced hard standing pitches. Every part of the site is very well kept including around all the lakes. Toilets and showers were very clean and well looked after. The owners live on site and were very helpful with a small shop for basic foodstuffs and any fishing requirements.
An easy 10 minute walk into the village which has pubs cafes and shops with bus stops to all the local area including Lincoln.
Highly recommend this site

Liked Absolutely fantastic site. Pam and Kieron so friendly and professional. Nothing was too much trouble for them. Hosts with the most. Facilities second to none. Toilets/showers always spotlessly clean as was the washing up area. Hubby loved the fishing. The shop stocked so much fishing stuff as well as essentials - tea, milk etc. Pitches large and flat. Walk into Spilsby was 10 minutes - 3 pubs, local shops, takeaways and a Sainsburys. Also buses to Skegness. We had an amazing 6 nights. Would highly recommend Woodlands Fishery.

Local attractions

Drive north for a few minutes and you’ll reach the Lincolnshire Wolds National Landscape, a lovely area for walks among low hills. If you’re more of a stroller than a hiker, maybe you’d prefer a wander around one of the local heritage attractions – with a drive of 10 minutes you can get to either the ruins of 13th-century Bolingbroke Castle (birthplace of Henry IV) or the grander Gunby Estate, Hall and Gardens, with walled gardens, elaborate interiors and a rather nice tea room. For a different kind of history, head to Lincolnshire Aviation Heritage Centre (10 minutes’ drive), which has exhibits about World War II Bomber Command including a Lancaster bomber. Fancy some sea air? It’s a 20-minute drive to Skegness for a walk along the beach, a go on the rides at the amusement park and a visit to Natureland Seal Sanctuary. A little way south of the town, Gibraltar Point (25 minutes’ drive) is a popular location for birdwatchers; you might also spot seals here sometimes.
