  • Family-friendly rural Lincolnshire site in an old church paddock
  • 15 minutes' drive to Horncastle or Louth; half an hour to Skegness
  • Lovely views of the Lincolnshire Wolds; local pub five minutes' drive
Tucked in among peaceful parkland in the spectacular Lincolnshire Wolds, tents-only Oxcombe Campsite is a dog-friendly spot in a natural haven for outdoor-loving families. This quiet rural site is in an old church paddock with views of the historic All Saints Church and traditional farm buildings as well as the green countryside all around. A rural setting this may be, but it’s also a convenient one, close to plenty of attractions and amenities. The market towns of Horncastle and Louth (both within 15 minutes' drive) are close by for antiques shops, local produce and attractive streets to wander along. Closer to home, it’s a couple of miles to Belchford for the local pub, a cosy and traditional place with excellent food as well as good drinks. When you're ready for more activity, you can enjoy scenic walks or bike rides along bridle paths and the Viking Way, or venture to the coastline at Skegness (30 minutes) for seaside fun. For family days out, the area has plenty of options including adventure parks, wildlife centres, and beaches like Moggs Eye and Gibraltar Point. Back at base, all the essentials are in place for a comfortable stay, including proper showers, indoor toilets, a communal washing-up area with fridge access, and a cosy indoor seating area in ‘The Cowshed’, a converted traditional barn. You’re also welcome to pick fresh fruit from the orchard next door – as long as the birds haven't beaten you to it…

What customers say

This peaceful farm campsite in the Lincolnshire Wolds boasts beautiful country views. Guests rave about the spotless facilities, including showers and toilets, and appreciate extras like shared fridge/freezer and a sheltered spot with a kettle and WiFi. Natural beauty, wildlife, and nearby pubs/walks are big draws. While some mentioned occasional facility waits or farm animal noise, most loved it, with many planning to return.

Church Paddock primitive grass tent campsite

Liked We absolutely loved this campsite; beautiful views, great facilities, wonderful setting and friendly owners. The animals, including the dogs, wandering about the area gave the site a wonderful, relaxed atmosphere. The gardens are simply stunning, a wonderful place to mooch around, I desperately wanted to put my gardening gloves on and have a play, they're amazing.
The surrounding area is great too, with plenty of walks and quaint villages to explore. We can't wait to return.

Church Paddock primitive grass tent campsite

Liked Wonderful campsite in the lincolnshire wolds with fab views. Quiet and pretty on a working farm. Loved the little church on the grounds and the animals roaming. Toilets and showers clean and all the extra touches such as microwave, freezer and indoor space was fab .

Disliked Nothing. I loved it.
Some parts of the space were a little inclined but lots of flat spots to choose.

Local attractions

For kids, the first port of call may well be thrill rides at Fantasy Island (45 minutes’ drive). There are plenty of animal encounters to be had too, with lions, tigers and bears at the Lincolnshire Wildlife Park (40 minutes) and Wolds Wildlife Park (10 minutes). For something gentler, head to Northcote Heavy Horse Centre (25 minutes) to meet the Shire horses, or take a stroll along the seashore at Gibraltar Point National Nature Reserve (40 minutes). There are plenty of heritage sites to visit nearby too. Gothic-era Lincoln Cathedral (45 minutes) once held the title of the tallest building in the country, and the walled gardens at 18th-century Gunby Estate, Hall and Gardens (half an hour) are ablaze with wildflowers in spring. If nostalgia is more your style, you might like to browse antiques shops in the historic market towns of Horncastle and Louth (both minutes), or see a film at the Kinema in the Woods (30 minutes), a vintage-style cinema in a former farm building in Woodhall Spa.
