  • 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.

Camping pod (comfort, no pets, double)

Liked Lovely site. Very scenic view from our pod, which was cosy and well equipped. Great pub. Could hire bikes.

Disliked Toilet/shower locks tricky and needed more airing in them. Beds uncomfortable and only 2 pillows for the double bed.

Fully-serviced concrete and grass caravan site

Liked Lovely site with good walks round the lakes.
Warm welcome on arrival and bar /restaurant seemed busy but we didn't use it.
Lots of wildlife seen (owls, deer, hares, rabbits, geese and woodpeckers) on the well kept meadows behind the site.
Bus to Lincoln or Boston from park gates and good cycling.
Trains were fine - just a quick buzz as they went passed.
Pods, shepherd huts and lodges looked good.

Disliked Toilets whilst well kept by the cleaning team did get very warm. Also if all pods and pitches busy not sure loos / showers would cope.

Fully-serviced concrete and grass caravan site

Liked Lovely site, clean and well maintained. Pitch was a great size with shower blocks/toilets not too far away. On arrival we were made very welcome and the lady in reception had a great sense of humour. Food in the resturant was great, tasty and reasonably priced. The staff were attentive and welcoming. We would definitely recommend especially if you want some peace and quiet. Definitely will be back if we are looking to come back to Lincolnshire.

Disliked Nothing

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.
