  • Small, peaceful family-run site 20 minutes' walk from Old Leake
  • 25 minutes' drive from the beach at Skegness
  • Three well-stocked lakes on site for year-round fishing
Fishing folks, feast your eyes on this. Crash in a cosy pod at Lincolnshire’s Lakeview Camping Pods and not only will you get a lovely lake view (you’ll be forgiven for taking that for granted, given the name), you’ll also be mere minutes from casting your rod into the water. Indeed, if you’re so inclined you could spend your whole break by the lakes – there are three of them on site for year-round fishing, stocked with carp (common and mirror), rudd, bream and roach. Not really that into fishing (gasp)? There are plenty of lake views for you too – and easy access to fenland walks, bike rides and birdwatching. You might even consider leaving the place behind in favour of day trips to the beach at Skegness or the markets of Boston, both of which are within a half-hour drive. Should you wish to enhance your rural retreat with a fresh-air cookout, you’ll be chuffed to see that each pod is kitted out with a barbecue stand to perch your disposable on while you sizzle a sausage or few. If you’re more of a country pub type, get walking – your local is about a 10-minute trot away, and there’s more 20 minutes away in the nearest village, Old Leake, where there’s also a small supermarket and a kids’ play area.

1 bedroom camping pod

Liked: Tranquil setting, cleanliness of facilities and fishing. We stayed in a pod overlooking the lake, which offered a great view and ever better fishing! Rachel (Owner) was incredibly nice and attentive. The site is beautiful, quiet and clean. There is an honesty box for kindling and logs for the fire pits provided as well as a bench and bbq area directly outside the pod, so you can cook and enjoy a fire whilst looking over the water. The toilet/shower is clean and only about 20 steps away from the accommodation, which is perfect for little feet! I would highly recommend to anyone looking for a chilled out week…

Disliked: Nothing!

1 bedroom camping pod

Liked: According to my sons the best weekend in their lives! The pod was all we needed for our 3days break- comfy beds and waking up to singing birds. There was everything we needed and sweet surprise from Rachel when we arrived. My 3 fishermen had a blast- plenty of fish to catch and very over the moon. We will definitely be back 😊

Local attractions

It’s not all about the fishing – this is a fine place for folks who fancy a bit of rural rambling or riding. There are plenty of quiet lanes and footpaths around for a bike ride or a walk (excellent news for those bringing a canine pal), and some super nature trails for birdwatchers at the RSPB Freiston Shore reserve, 15 minutes away. Advanced equine handlers may be in the area for dressage lessons or competitions five minutes away at Sheepgate Equestrian; those with less refined skills or who just fancy seeing some of the countryside from horseback can join lessons or hacks from a riding centre 10 minutes away instead. Steer seawards and you’ll hit Skegness in about 15 minutes for beach days and trips to its aquarium, seal sanctuary and go-kart track. Head inland instead to visit the market town of Boston (20 minutes) for boat trips and the bubblecar museum, or take your shopoholic self to the antique centres of Horncastle, half an hour away.
