  • Family-run site with several fisheries within a 15-minute drive
  • Epworth five minutesโ€™ drive; Cleethorpes beach 45 minutes
  • Dogs welcome and barbecues allowed; shower and toilet block
For a holiday that might keep a family with a diverse range of interests happy, take a look at Epworth Fields Holiday Park, a five-minute drive from the Lincolnshire town of Epworth. This family-run, back-to-basics site is surrounded by spectacular countryside laced with miles of footpaths. However, its main draw is arguably its proximity to dozens of fisheries, including Lindholme Lakes Country Park, Kathleens Carp Lake and Alderfen (all within 15 minutesโ€™ drive). If angling for carp is not your thing, there is still plenty to commend this site. Fancy a day at the seaside? Cleethorpes beach, on the Lincolnshire coast, can be reached in about 45 minutes. Here you can relax on the sand with an ice cream, or have a go at paddleboarding, kayaking and other watersports. There are also traditional British seaside attractions like donkey rides, arcades and a pier, plus the Cleethorpes Coast Light Railway. Barbecues are allowed on site, and you can purchase provisions in Epworth, where international restaurants and traditional pubs can also be found. In addition to a washing-up area, the site has a toilet block and showers, plus chemical disposal facilities and recycling points. And the cherry on the cake? Epworth Fields has a strict quiet policy, so you can catch up on your sleep without having to worry about loud music being played at odd times.

Mishel I. The reviewer booked through Pitchup.com

Electric grass pitch

Liked: Lovely, clean field. Quiet, beautiful surroundings. I could see that there were more facilities but we were out of the busy season so understood why they were closed (cafe). The kids loved playing in the surrounding bit of woodland.

Disliked: Nothing

Non-electric grass and earth tent or motorhome pitch

Liked: Children's Play Area is great as it's in the middle of the site so you can see them from your pitch. Close to Cleethorpes so you can go to the beach. The town centre is close by and has some lovely little shops. It was quite quiet this bank holiday weekend as by 10pm-11pm it was very quiet. Last year it was too noisy. I would stay here again because it's very cheap and the kids love it. Just a few things need to be improved.

Disliked: Facilities need upgrading. No hot water in the sink so you have to use a kettle which is balanced on a bin (very dangerous). The showers just end up flooding so you end up getting all your clothes/shoes soaked. No consistent hot water coming out of the showers. The male who seems to look after the site is friendly however he has a couple of children who aren't the most friendliest. I constantly witnessed the male shouting at his children and the older child shouting and swearing back along with hitting his dad. This older child was also hitting other children. It really isn't professional to have your children on site if they are going to behave in that manner. The male was also walking round saying "I can't be arโ‚ฌed". Again not professional.

Electric grass pitch

Liked: Big open field with plenty of space for ball games etc. Park right in the middle with tent pitches round the edge so you can safely let the kids go play while still being able to keep an eye on them. Only 5 mins drive to epworth with shops, take aways etc if needed.

Disliked: Toilet and washing facilities were not clean, saw someone hoovering but toilets and floors were dirty. No hot water to wash hands or pots just a kettle provided to boil your own hot water. No fishing pond as advertised on pitchup it is completely drained. Would maybe come back in a few years as I gather they are updating the facilities.

Nicola R. The reviewer booked through Pitchup.com

Electric grass pitch

Liked: We do enjoy our stay here as the park is good for kids and we make a tree swing when we come,

Disliked: No pop up kitchen, no on site shop, toilets were not cleaned enough and the smell was not nice. Weโ€™ve been a fair few times and this time was a maybe do we go again? Didnโ€™t have our confirmed spots to pitch up so had to pitch up elsewhere, wasnโ€™t an issue tho as luckily we found 2 spots (confirmed on booking) so we could be together.. itโ€™s a great place but this time round overall disappointed ๐Ÿ˜•

Local attractions

Staying close to base, dozens of fisheries are easily accessible from the site, such as at nearby Lindholme Lakes, with eight pools for match and pleasure anglers, 450 available pegs and a tackle and bait shop. The historic town of Epworth just over a mile away was the birthplace and childhood home of Methodist Church founder John Wesley, who was brought up in the Old Rectory. Guests can visit the Rectory these days to see how life was lived in the early eighteenth century; a Wesley Trail is also in town. A few excellent theme and family parks are within easy driving distance of Epworth Fields Holiday Park: the theme park, zoo and conservation area of Flamingo Land in North Yorkshire's Kirby Misperton; Sundown Adventureland for the under-tens, based at Retford; the farm animals, indoor play area, horse liveries, tearooms and maize maze of Boston Farm Park, and the 300+ animals of the Yorkshire Wildlife Park at Doncaster.
