  • Quiet adults-only park among Lincolnshire farmland; dogs allowed
  • A 20-minute drive from beaches at Skegness and Mablethorpe
  • Half a mile from the village pub and shop
A warm and friendly welcome awaits at The Nurseries Caravan Park, an adults-only, dog-friendly park in a semi-rural setting in Lincolnshire. Set at the end of a quiet lane and surrounded by farmland, this site is well-placed for relaxing breaks both in the Lincolnshire countryside and by the sea. Coastal trips are particularly easily arranged at Skegness or Mablethorpe, both of which can be reached in about a 20-minute drive. The site is located in the village of Mumby near Alford, and there's a pub and shop about half a mile away on foot or by car (a few last-minute essentials are also available to buy on site). Facilities here include spotless men's and women's toilets and showers, one of which is suitable for people with reduced mobility. There is also a laundry room, a freezer for ice etc., a food preparation area and a separate washing-up sink. Adjacent to the facilities block, there is also a chemical waste disposal point for tourers. Handily, the site has an on-site café for tasty snacks and daily essentials. The Nurseries Caravan Park is very pet-friendly, and there is plenty of safe off-site dog walking to be had in the surrounding area for exploration with your four-legged friend.

FHU cement/asphalt and grass travel trailer campsite

Liked Dave and Tracy were the epitome of what a true warden should be … friendly, helpful, caring and very informative. When we informed them of something not quite right with the pitch , Tracy came across to investigate and because the problem could not be resolved straight away moved us to another pitch without delay.
The breakfasts they served was well presented, freshly cooked and a good variety of choices. The small dining area was well decorated and immaculately clean.
They are a credit to the organisation and the campsite which they manage, The Nurseries, is a credit to them and the organisation .

Disliked The toilet block, which houses beside the male and ladies toilets and showers, also has a laundry area and dishwashing facilities. Whilst kept immaculately clean really does need updating.

Liked The fantastic pitch size, the lovely hosts, incredibly helpful.
Very clean and tidy

Disliked There are only 6 toilets, 3 male and 3 female ones. The problem lies with the fact that 2 of the toilets are in with the showers, so on a busy morning when people are showering there is a real lack of toilets available.

FHU cement/asphalt and grass travel trailer campsite

Liked Tracy & Dave the site wardens are very friendly and lovely people.
Tracy’s breakfast delicious and reasonably priced.
Quiet and peaceful.
Lovely well maintained site.
Gate access and security very good.
All flat pitches that are huge.
Very clean site in a lovely location.

Disliked Perhaps the site needs more showers for male and female and perhaps update or modernise them.
WiFi was poor on pitch 20 and never worked, dropped out all the time so unusable.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you for your review, we are so pleased you enjoyed your stay with us!
We will take your comments on board regarding the toilet / showers.
The reception for the Wi Fi does struggle a little from time to time, this is why we don't charge for it.

Local attractions

The small seaside town of Sutton on Sea (15 minutes' drive) is an excellent place to start exploring the Lincolnshire coast, with its attractive seafront, pretty public gardens and spectacular natural beach. The place feels more like a village than a town and is a world away from the bright lights and buzzing arcades of similarly nearby Skegness and Mablethorpe (both 20 minutes), both of which are also well worth visiting in their own right. For a change of scene, you could continue along the coast to the Seal Sanctuary (20 minutes), where sick and wounded sea creatures are nursed back to full health, or head inland instead to the National Trust property of Gunby Hall (15 minutes), a handsome 1700s country house with Victorian walled gardens. If you're happy to head slightly further afield, you could sample local ales at Batemans Brewery (25 minutes), plan jaunts to traditional market towns like Louth (35 minutes), a famed foodie hotspot, or leave the countryside behind to visit the cathedral city of Lincoln (an hour) and its pretty medieval streets.
