Wild Acorns

Friendly, quiet site with roomy grass campervan and caravan pitches
A 10-minute drive from Boston for boat trips to the east coast
Next door to a nine-hole golf course; hot tub bookable on site

Find yourself in a friendly little haven at Wild Acorns, which has generously sized campervan and caravan pitches just outside the Lincolnshire town of Boston (10 minutes’ drive). While this site is on the simpler side of the staycation spectrum, levelling up on luxury while sleeping under the stars is possible here by booking the hot tub for 24 hours. There’s also a woodfired pizza oven for conjuring up cracking meals and a kids’ play area so you can get the tiddlers out of the way while crafting edible extravaganzas. As for activities, the park is next to a nine-hole golf course and there are oodles of trails for cycling, running and walking locally. If you need a bit of insider info on the best places to go, the owners are happy to suggest routes – just grab them at a convenient time and ask to pick their brains. Trails they’re most likely to recommend include the Water Rail Way on the former Boston to Lincoln train line, or maybe a sculpture path inspired by the works of Tennyson. After outdoorsy pursuits, freshen up back on base in the showers at the bathroom block – it’s set inside a repurposed shepherd’s hut – perhaps swinging by Swineshead (10 minutes) on your way home to stock up on supplies at the village store and farm shop. There’s also a hobby shop and a couple of Grade I and II-listed buildings with fascinating stories behind them if you fancy lingering a little longer here.

Local attractions

Nearby Boston (10 minutes’ drive) is a small town with medieval roots and markets that have cropped up regularly for the last 450 years. Get to its heart by visiting St Botolph's Church, known as The Stump and climbing up its 365 steps to the top of the tower for glorious views. Craving the coast? Take the Boston Belle boat out from the quay towards the North Sea; there are also inland cruises up the River Witham, as well as bracing trips out to spot the seal colony just off the River Welland. Back on dry land, check out the cathedral city of Lincoln (50 minutes) or head to historic homes like Belton (40 minutes) and Burghley (an hour), and the castles of Tattershall (25 minutes) and Belvoir (50 minutes). Another local settlement worth a look is Sleaford (25 minutes), home to the war-themed artefacts at the Battle of Britain Memorial Flight Visitor’s Centre and the golf courses and outdoor swimming pool of Woodhall Spa.
