  • Small family-run site among five acres of green Lincs countryside
  • Sutton on Sea and Huttoft beach five minutes' drive
  • Next to a riding centre and 25 minutes' drive from Skegness
Well, now, this is an excellent little place. Small, friendly and family-run, South Farm Caravan Park is a touring site set deep in the Lincolnshire countryside, a five-minute drive from colourful Sutton on Sea, 10 minutes from Mablethorpe and 25 minutes from Skegness. Families, couples and solo travellers are all welcome here, and dogs would likely give the farm an approving woof too: many walks are nearby along the countryside lanes and fields, and the walks – and bike rides – of the Lincolnshire Wolds are very close by. The closest beach, Huttoft or Moggs Eye, has miles of dog-friendly sands for the pooch to let loose. If you think the kids would like to canter, riding lessons and a pony club are at the equestrian centre next door to the farm. Facilities at the farm include clean toilets and showers (these are based away from the pitches and require a walk) and a washing-up area. There's a small tea room (open every day during the school holidays only) and a games room.

What customers say

A welcoming, family-run spot with big, flat spots, handy for the beach. Staff are great, cafe's good, kids love the bouncy castles. Toilets are a bit old and a walk, and showers cost a bit. Good value for a chilled coastal break.

Powered grass site

Liked Lovely little site especially those with younger children.
They keep the inflatables out for them all the time and the play park up near the tent field is very well kept.
The toilets and showers for cleanliness I would rate as fair.

The place is also very pet friendly.

Disliked From where the tents are, it’s quite a long walk down to the toilets and shower block especially when you have kids that decide they’re busting for the loo.
I did notice there was a toilet cabin on the camp field but it wasn’t open whilst we was there.

Liked Ich war nur eine Nacht da, aber es hat mir gut gefallen. Das Personal ist besonders freundlich, der Platz war sauber und gepflegt. Es gab ein Tearoom auf dem Platz, wo man frühstücken und Abendessen konnte. Es gab viele Aktivitäten für Kinder. Familienfreundlich.

Disliked Der Weg zu den sanitären Anlagen war weit.

Liked Really lovely camping site. Staff were so friendly and helpful. Cafe on site is really good and it’s so lovely to see and hear about all they put on for children.

Disliked Didn’t dislike anything. Do think another set of loos and showers near the top would be so good.

Unpowered grass site

Liked My son and myself really enjoyed our 3 night stay here with a non electric tent pitch. The site wardens were extremely friendly and helpful, Pitch was a very good size, facilities were clean, a nice on site cafe with great service and the extra addition of the soft play, bouncy castle area was a huge surprise as it was included in the pitch price! Will definitely be returning again in the future. Thanks For the great stay!

Disliked The only thing I slightly disliked was that we were pitched at the furthest point of the site from the toilet/shower block which was around a 5 min walk away. Which for us was fine for showers but my son is well versed in ‘holding it’ until the last minute which made some interesting moments during the middle of the night.would be amazing to add a small toilet block to the top end of the site if possible

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Hi, thank you for staying with us.

Thank you for the feedback back, we have tried to install a toilet block at the top of the site but unfortunately we can’t get enough water pressure up there for the toilets to be able to flush properly, we have only just managed to get enough pressure up there for the water points for drinking water, any more added to this and we wouldn’t get any pressure up there at all.

Lots more bookings will create some money for us to hopefully improve this issue in the near future so anyone you know wanting a camping trip away please send them our way:)

Lovely site well looked after. Owners…

Local attractions

This is a great spot for family and beach holidays, with both Sutton on Sea and Huttoft beaches close by for colourful beach huts at the first and a peaceful, relaxing vibe at the second. Skegness is an easy drive along the coast, and Mablethorpe and Ingoldmells are also easily accessible to the north and south. Among the many other activities near the farm are the ambles and pedals of the Lincolnshire Wolds or taking day trips to Lincolnshire's small market towns like Alford, where there's also a war museum and a theatre. Bargain hunters should also get along to one of Lincolnshire's many car boot sales, at Ingoldmells, Skegness and Mablethorpe on the coast and inland at Louth, Horncastle, Gainsborough and Hornbeach.
