  • 70-acre estate including fields and woodlands
  • Six-acre fishing lake on site with rudd, roach and tench
  • Great base for exploring the Lincolnshire countryside
No word of a lie: you might land a whopper of a carp at Oakhill Leisure between Lincoln and Newark-on-Trent. For monsters of up to 35lb have been angled for at the site's six-acre fishing lake, as well as sizeable specimens of rudd, roach and tench. If you're not fishing or if you feel like doing a victory lap after landing a massive carp, plenty is on hand to explore, as Oakhill is on a site made up of the 10-acre campsite, walking and playing fields covering 30 acres, and finally about 20 acres of woodland. Take the 20 to 30-minute circular walk around the lake and through the woodland; it and the site grounds are pretty handsome… The accommodation part of Oakhill is on flat and well-drained grassland, bordered by trees on three sides and a hedge. Toilets, showers and a washroom are in the facilities building and a play area is also on site. But back to the fishing… You'll need a fishing licence (available at the post office) to fish at Oakhill Leisure, as well as your own equipment and bait; a small charge applies to angle on site, and you'll need to call the office in advance to book your peg. Please note that under-16s must be accompanied by an adult and that they aren't allowed to stay around the lake overnight.

Super clean, peaceful site with great facilities and friendly staff. Good for dogs and kids, with a fishing lake. Secure and level pitches. Wi-Fi would be a bonus for some.

Michele F.

Unpowered grass caravan site

Liked Quiet, well maintained site with spotlessly clean, quality facilities.

Enthusiastic welcome provided by helpful Jodie.

Secure site with number plate recognition used to gain access to the pitches.

The individual shower cubicles are wet room in style. Well planned with the shower area separated from the changing area by a full height wall. Many hooks to hang clothes and belongings on.

Good location for visiting Lincoln, (20 minutes drive), or the Newark show ground, (10 minutes drive).

Harriet L.

Rooftop tent unpowered grass site

Liked The welcome was great! Even to the extent of the staff member nipping home to get us a pack of playing cards as we had forgotten ours! The facilities were lovely and clean. Most of all, even though we were on a well maintained and popular campsite, we were able to tuck ourselves into a corner and felt as though we were in the middle of nowhere. Hearing the muntjac barking into the night was great too. Only 25 mins from home, will definitely be back for an easy night away through the winter!

Disliked Nothing to dislike!

Local attractions

Food, glorious food… bring the bike and cycle to the nearby villages of Norton Disney, Bassingham and Auborn for drinks and home-cooked Lincolnshire food in friendly well-run pubs. Evening meals recommended by the team are at the Green Man pub a mile and a half away. Visit nearby Newark for its castle, National Civil War Centre and Newark Museum and central square with a market all day on Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays and Saturdays. Food and drink are recommended here too at Oakhill Leisure's fave coffee shop Strays in Middle Gate. The site is handy for lovely Lincoln, where you can have a look at the castle, the Medieval Bishop's Palace and the grand old cathedral: the views (and the walk to it up Steep Hill) are just a bit fabulous…
