What customers say

A chilled vibe with big, flat spots. The fishing lake and pub with live music get shout-outs. Toilets are a bit old-fashioned, but it's peaceful, though near train tracks. Good value, people come back!

Dawn C.

Electric optional hardstanding pitch

Liked It's fairly local to where I live. I wanted to stay local due to it being the 1st time out in my caravan. This place was great. Showers and loos are relatively clean. Folks keeping their dogs under control with only one family lab not on a lead but it didn't come close to mine so no issue. Friendly boozer. Outdoor seating could do with a little uplift but that's all. Lovely spaced pitches. Electric by top up card via the pub.

Disliked Maybe get some rubble in the holes when entering the park. Also the signage not clear as we thought the park was where the sign was and it was next door. Rang the number and she asked me the park name and told me it was next door. It was then we saw the tiny sign on the pub wall.

Susan H.

Electric optional hardstanding pitch

Liked Excellent facilities and a friendly pub. The pitch had its own water tap and electric hook up was easy. Nice to have warm water for washing up pots and showers. Lovely lady who had a thankless task whilst we were camping of keeping the shower area in the ladies clean. Some people not respectful of leave like you would like to find principle.Weather excellent

Disliked The facilities were being used by a large family who didn't respect the quiet after dark code.

Local attractions

The Skipworth Arms is on the edge of the hamlet of Moortown near Nettleton village, which is a mere couple of miles from the A46 for easy access to Lincolnshire’s heritage, countryside, market towns and museums, and close to the Forestry Commission woods of Willingham and Nettleton for leafy strolls. Both Caistor Outdoor Pursuits and the Caistor Equestrian Centre are about two miles away from the pub; for a gentler time, wander the four-mile section of the Viking Way from Nettleton to Caistor. Dump the car at Caistor and take the bus from town to get to several Lincolnshire highlights like the market town of Brigg 10 minutes away, the National Fishing Heritage Centre and Ross Tiger deep-sea trawler at Grimsby, and a day among the seaside, pier and winter gardens at Cleethorpes, both within 15 minutes. Five miles outside Grimsby, the six sails of heritage site Waltham Windmill are surrounded by a golf club which welcomes visitors; more courses are at for Laceby and Market Rasen for those who like to tee off on hols. The market town of Louth, one of the most visited in Lincolnshire as it’s on the edge of the Lincolnshire Wolds, is about 20 minutes away (if you’re wandering the Wolds, take time to steam along them too with a trip on the Lincolnshire Wolds Railway starting from Ludborough). Also by bus, take the 25-minute trip to lovely Lincoln for a day sightseeing around its cathedral, castle and museums. Closer to home and by car, a 10-minute drive will take you to Market Rasen – perhaps for the racecourse? – and to tours around the Three Sisters Vineyard at Claxby. If you’re happy to drive a bit further for a day trip, there's another soaring day out in the Lancaster bomber of Lincolnshire Aviation Heritage Centre 45 minutes away.
