  • Spacious, family-run site in the Lincolnshire countryside
  • A 10-minute drive to Skegness; three miles from the Lincolnshire Wolds
  • Short walk away from a dog-friendly pub; barbecues permitted on site
Let Alan, Jo, their two sons and labrador welcome you into the lovely Lincolnshire countryside… the rural location and the splendid views at The Lazy Buzzards might convince you that you’re tucked firmly away in nature’s big backyard, which is true aside from the fact that the seaside resort of Skegness is only 10 minutes’ drive to the east (that’s a 15-minute pedal for those of you who have brought a pair of wheels along). Families, dogs, couples and any fans of a barbecue will find this family-run site particularly splendid. The nearest dog-friendly pub is only 20 minutes’ walk away and there are many other options for tasty fodder in the pubs and restaurants in the surrounding villages, towns and cities, including Burgh le Marsh (half an hour’s walk), Ingoldmells (10 minutes’ drive), Spilsby (15 minutes), Chapel St Leonards (15 minutes), Alford (20 minutes), Horncastle (25 minutes), Louth (half an hour) and Lincoln (an hour). With the edge of the Lincolnshire Wolds three miles away, pick up the pace with rambles through the valleys, woodlands or chalk pits, and then return to the spacious four-acre site for some thorough relaxation. The views over the Lincolnshire fields make for some spectacular barbecues, that’s for sure. When it’s time to see Skegness and all of its sights, simply join the A158 nearby. Once there, you might have a hard time deciding on between all the indoor and outdoor attractions, which include the Fantasy Island theme park, bowling alleys, a cinema, fairground, crazy golf and a beach. Perhaps pick up some fish and chips or ice cream and take a parade along the seafront and pier or nose around the shops on the high street too?

What customers say

Clean, quiet, family-friendly site with spacious, level pitches. Owners are praised for friendliness. Good value for money, well-located for the coast. Dog area is a plus. Minor notes: no sinks in restrooms, occasional septic smell, field can get boggy.

Daniel H.

Primitive grass tent or trailer tent campsite

Liked Great location, very quiet. The site is basically a single field but it has electric hook ups should you need them, we didnt. 2 lots of toilet and shower facilities. About a mile to walk into Burgh Le Marsh which has a chippy!!

Disliked I am sure that this was just a blip but the toilet block that we used could have been cleaner

Colin P.

Primitive grass tent or trailer tent campsite

Liked Really friendly and helpful welcome on arrival. The site was nicely laid out with lots of room. It's a lovely quiet location but within a quick car journey of the hustle and bustle of the seaside resorts. Toilets and showers were nice and clean, with the showers been lovely and warm as well. Washing up area was also clean and well kept. Really impressed and will definitely be back.

Disliked It's been mentioned before but no sinks for hand washing In toilets. Hand sanitiser is provided though and if no ones in the shower you can use that one.
