  • 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.

John W.

Fully-serviced hardstanding and grass touring pitch

Liked Very clean well presented modern pitch with water, electric hook up and grey waste drain.
Pitches are wide and flat.
Very welcoming staff and a good bar / cafe although opening hours are short, closed at 5pm.
Lovely walks around area with 2 villages within an easy stroll that have a public house and in Branson a small family run cafe.
Excellent fishing very relaxing location around lakes.
Very enjoyable stay.

Disliked Train noise, the main track is no more than 100yrds from any pitch, ear plugs for a good nights sleep recommended as they run all night
Bar hours would have been better maybe up to 8pm so that an evening meal could have been purchased but not a deal breaker.

Fully-serviced hardstanding and grass touring pitch

Liked The fully serviced pitches and the restaurant and bar. Great walks locally and around the park. Only a ten minute drive to the centre of Lincoln.

Disliked The menu in the evening was the same as the lunch time a different selection would be great.

Ralph C.

Fully-serviced hardstanding and grass touring pitch

Liked Restaurant first class, full service pitches very good, receptionist very helpful, clean and tidy. Ideal for fishermen and loverly outlooks.

Disliked Train noise 24hrs, poor telephone signal, having to pay for WiFi when most quality sites are now free. Was checking it out for a club rally but have decided not to use the site for the above reasons.

Recommend to friends Visit again

It was a superb site. Very clean, loads of dog walking areas.

Disliked Nothing to dislike.

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.
