  • Peaceful family-friendly rural site in the Lincolnshire Fens
  • A 15-minute drive from Boston and 40 minutes from Lincoln
  • Top spot for aviation fans: 15 minutes’ drive from RAF Coningsby
Up for peaceful stays full of adventure, exploration and… plane spotting? You’re onto a winner at Bailey Bridge Farm, a family-friendly site 15 minutes’ drive from Boston, Lincolnshire. This is aviation country, 15 minutes from RAF Coningsby and the Battle of Britain Memorial Flight Visitors Centre. Airplane anoraks should pack binoculars and settle in next to Coningsby to watch the jets zoom by, nosedive into the history at the Battle of Britain memorial site, or head to the Lincolnshire Aviation Heritage Centre, 25 minutes away in East Kirkby, for rides in a Lancaster bomber. Prefer to stay close to the ground? This is the Lincolnshire Fens, so it doesn’t get much flatter than this. That makes bike rides (the site is located on National Cycle Route 1 from Hull to Harwich), hikes and countryside rambles a cinch for all ages and fitness levels. There are trails to follow at Jenny’s Wood, less than 15 minutes away, while more ambitious guests can head in to Woodhall Spa, 20 minutes away, to join the long-distant Viking Way. When a (relatively) lazier time is required, stick around on site to take in the countryside views or bask in the peace. Round off your day with fresh-from-the-barbecue eats, then settle in next to the campfire for cosy and quiet evenings browsing the farm's fast fibre broadband.

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked: Location is fab and hosts are welcoming. The main toilet is clean and the portable loo is the nicest I've ever seen! The summer house is really sweet there is a kettle, toaster and microwave avaliable. The site is amazing for wildlife and plane spotting. Close to amenities but far enough away to feel wild.

Disliked: Could benefit from a proper shower but good enough to rough it for a few days

Electric optional grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked: A lovely friendly campsite with a homely feel. The owners, Susan & Mick, really go out of their way to ensure you have an enjoyable stay. The whole place has a relaxed atmosphere and we certainly came away feeling relaxed too.

Disliked: Nothing to dislike but would have liked more hot water for the pop-up shower. Even though the water was a little on the cool side, the shower was powerful. Really good for a pump operated shower. Great addition to the campsite.

Local attractions

Start explores with a jaunt into Boston, a 15-minute drive from base, to gape at the (rumoured) highest non-cathedral church tower in the world at St Botolph’s, wander through the free museum, clamber aboard a boat for a cruise along the river, or catch the Boston Belle for a seal-spotting trip to the Wash National Nature Reserve. For a taste of history, there’s plenty to entice hereabouts: the 15th-century moated Tattershall Castle should get things started about 10 minutes away, and Ayscoughfee Hall Museum and Gardens and the oh-so-pretty Gunby Hall are within 40 minutes. More intriguing options include the Bubblecar Museum (10 minutes) and the spectacularly decorated Kinema in the Woods (20 minutes), believed to be the only UK cinema still using rear projection. Stick to the historical with a trip to Lincoln, 40 minutes from the site, to explore its 11th-century castle, roam its medieval Bishop’s Palace, glide around its cathedral and view one of just four copies of the Magna Carta. (There are plenty of shops, restaurants, bars and theatres to venture into too…) Prefer wildlife to city walls? Make a visit to the Ark Wildlife Park and Rescue Zoo for close encounters with lemurs, meerkats, llamas and lizards, or flap over to RSPB Frampton Marsh for some birdwatching – both are 25 minutes from base.
