- Countryside site over three acres in the Lincolnshire Wolds
- Under 10 minutes' drive from Alford and 20 from Skegness
- Dog-friendly location; barbecues (raised off the ground) welcome
A Lincolnshire Wolds stay with easy access to Lincolnshire coast hotspots like Skegness and Mablethorpe? Bound along to Deers Leap Camping just outside Alford for a peaceful countryside setting, excellent transport links and easy access from the A16, all in the lush Lincolnshire Wolds National Landscape.
Set over three acres, Deers Leap is just inside the Wolds, under 10 minutes' drive from the old market town of Alford, 15 minutes from the nearest beach and 20 minutes from Skegness. Settle down here after a long day's hiking or seaside rambling, to fire up a barbecue (raised off the ground) and eat out under the stars.
This is a dog-friendly location that's conveniently surrounded by plenty of nice areas for you to take them on their daily dog walks. Amenities on site include a purpose-built log cabin with free hot showers, plus a washing-up area, chemical disposal and a drinking water point, as well as a communal firepit (to be lit in good conditions only, and always manned).
A shop is within a mile for supplies (at the local garage), or you can easily arrange grocery deliveries to the site. Horse-riding activities are also available in the local area.

Local attractions
Keeping holidaymakers of all ilks happily occupied since times of yore, the Lincolnshire seaside capital Skegness is a top pick for a coastal day; there are reasons why one Mr Butlins picked Skeggy as the setting of his first holiday park venture back in the 1930s… Have at least a day here on the sandy beach and the lengthy pier, greeting the honking inhabitants of the Natureland seal sanctuary, and having fish and chips (many times) at your own fave Skegness spot.
Leaving Skegness (boo), Ingoldmells, with its seven-day indoor market and the Fantasy Island amusement park, is also 20 minutes' drive from the site. Mablethorpe, home to a splendid beach and another seal centre in the Mablethorpe Seal Sanctuary and Wildlife Centre, is a couple of minutes further along the coast.
Inland, make for Alford to see its famed five-sailed windmill or the kid-friendly artefacts in the Hackett Barn Museum, to Horncastle (15 minutes) for antique hunting or to Louth for the town markets including the last remaining cattle market in Lincolnshire. Or stride out into the countryside instead: hardened hikers have heaps of options in the picworthy Lincolnshire Wolds.
