  • Spacious, no-frills adults-only site on a Lincolnshire working farm
  • Half an hour's drive from Lincoln or Boston; an hour from the coast
  • Views over surrounding fens; dogs and barbecues permitted
Fens, farmland and fruit trees lie in wait at Wellwood Farm, a quiet site with pretty panoramas and open-air times in spades – the flat agricultural landscape around this Lincolnshire working farm makes great terrain for outdoor activities like birdwatching or cycle tours around quiet country lanes… It's a frill-free setup at this peaceful adults-only site – guests have access to a toilet and a mains water supply. Couples and groups looking for a break in green and grassy Lincolnshire are welcome to settle down on these well-maintained and spacious grounds, and well-behaved dogs are also allowed to tag along too. Numbers are always kept fairly low, so there's invariably plenty of space on the large pitching field. There are also games on site, including clock golf, boules and outdoor dominoes. As far as food is concerned, feel free to cook your own over a barbecue (drive 10 minutes to the local farm shop if you're looking to buy some fresh meat and veg). You can also head to nearby villages if you fancy taking a break from prepping meals – this site's owners particularly recommend the pub grub on offer in Billinghay and Digby and the Indian restaurant in nearby North Kyme (all of which, handily, are about a five-minute drive away). Further afield – but not too much further, mind you – are top attractions like historic Lincoln (30 minutes), the wide open spaces of Lincolnshire Wolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (from 35 minutes) and classic seaside towns like Skegness (about an hour).

Liked Our second visit. Lovely and quiet with clean toilet and shower. Paddock is nice and flat and only a couple of other campers, which is ideal if you don't want cramping in. The sunsets are amazing!

Disliked Only thing was the shower was £1 and I don't carry cash. This meant I couldn't go for a run as intended.

From the manager: Thank you for your review. So sorry about the shower. You ought to have come to see us and we could have sorted it out for you, nothing is too much trouble. Thank you again for visiting us.

Lovely quiet basic site. It's next to a local road but there…

Local attractions

There's many a historic spot to be inspected in this part of eastern England, whether that involves hunting out heritage at 15th-century Tattershall Castle (15 minutes' drive), steering your squadron towards Lincolnshire Aviation Heritage Centre (30 minutes) or gallivanting through the Victorian gardens of the Gunby Estate (45 minutes). Get your fix of shops and cobbled city streets in Lincoln (30 minutes), where highlights include the Cathedral Quarter, Usher Gallery and remains of the Roman South Wall. Grownup groups may also appreciate a trip to Boston (30 minutes), where there's impressive architecture to admire like St Botolph’s Church and Maud Foster Mills, a 25-metre-tall windmill where you can still watch fresh flour being ground twice weekly. Looking for your seaside fix? Beat a path to Skegness (an hour) where there's the Natureland Seal Sanctuary to visit and a pier to pootle on. Chapel St Leonards (an hour and 10 minutes) is another seaside spot with a good mix of indoor and alfresco attractions.
