  • Simple riverside touring pitches by a mill in Wainfleet All Saints
  • A 10-minute drive from Skegness; 20 minutes from Lincolnshire Wolds
  • Pre-booked discounted brewery tours available
Pitching up where your pints are made – with pubs and brewery tours on hand too? If you’ve raised a glass to that fine idea, make tracks to Batemans Brewery Campsite, in the village of Wainfleet All Saints. There’s much here to appeal to beer fans, of course – you can see how the ales are created in the brewery, then take a five-minute stroll to sample the results in the local pub alongside your dinner. There’s another fine pub five minutes’ drive away in the village of Croft too if you fancy mixing things up a bit, and a small supermarket a few minutes' walk away for picking up any supplies you may need. It’s not all about beer around here though – this is a super spot in a lovely Lincolnshire location, with a river running alongside and an old windmill giving the place a sense of heritage. Days out visiting the likes of Skegness, Gibraltar Point National Nature Reserve, Gunby Hall and the Lincolnshire Wolds are all easy to get to as well (all of the aforementioned are within a 20-minute drive). A toilet and shower block is available next to the site in the parking area. It is locked and only to be used by guests on site; you'll be given a code by the site. Please note that the camping area is car-free; a separate parking area is available a short distance from the pitches. As this is a working brewery, early starts are possible. This site is not staffed.

Powered grass travel trailer campsite

Liked: Lovely little site and would stay again. Clean toilet/shower block. Fairly level and quite firm even after all the rain. Shops, pubs and food local and only 10-15 minute drive to the coast.

Disliked: Could do with a little outdoor lighting so see the lock code on the toilet block.

Liked: Lovely little village 2 pubs co op ,chip shop , Chinese, butchers,10 minutes on train too Skeggness two minute walk from the train station in wainfleet

Disliked: I was on holiday for a week the only time the toilets blocks got clean was on bank holiday Monday these need cleaning every day. I cannot believe they not. It’s a shame because it’s a nice site dog bin, not emptied on my way out with my caravan I van pulled up with compost in and next skip lorry. All the staff just stood around looking nobody helped to sort this matter out they could see we was coming up with our caravan we were stuck and couldn’t move. Staff was very unprofessional just stood looking at us a group of joiner saw standing laughing

From the manager: Hi there, Thank you for your review and comments. Our Housekeeping team clean the Toilet/shower block regularly, however we do ask that Campers leave them as they would wish to find them. I'm sorry to hear that you were stuck, we do have an out of hours contact number if you have any issues. As this was on Bank Holiday Monday, there was only a small amount of staff on site, apologies that you felt this way. We do hope you come and stay with us again!

Powered grass travel trailer campsite

Liked: Beautiful site right next to a Victorian Brewery. A couple of nice pubs and a train station 5 minutes walk away. Brand new shower block

Disliked: Hot water ran out at 11 am one day. The whole site is grass and due to the rain, a few cars got stuck which left the site all churned up. Also be aware that the brewery shop doesn't open Sat/Sun and there are no brewery tours over a BH weekend. Bit silly really as the site was full!

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Hi Kevin, Thank you for your review and comments! We usually run Brewery Tours on Bank holiday weekend, however our Visitors Centre was under refurbishment so unfortunately we had to close. We do hope you visit us again!

Local attractions

While enjoying the present moment is lovely, a little bit of the past can liven up your holiday even more. That certainly rings true at the National Trust’s Gunby Hall and Gardens (15 minutes), where there's a country house of old, or the Bubblecar Museum (35 minutes), where it's possible to join in on ride days in historic microcars. Another way to get around, there’s a horse riding centre (25 minutes) within driving distance of the site too. There are rare-breed horses at the Northcote Heavy Horse Centre (15 minutes) - just call in to meet all the residents. And for more animals, Lincolnshire Wildlife Park (10 minutes) or Gibraltar Point National Nature Reserve (15 minutes) could be another port of call (binoculars are a handy accomplice for this second one). While the Lincolnshire Wolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (20 minutes) delivers when it comes to natural beauty and walks galore, it’s in Skegness (10 minutes) that the beach, aquarium and seal sanctuary take the spotlight. There’s all the activity of the rides at the Fantasy Island theme park (20 minutes) too, a good one for the kids in your group.
