Holme Lea

Gostou: The site is well maintained with lots of ehu points and water points also easy to use Elson point bot could do with a drive over grey waste drain. Nice pub with little shop attached for basics. The pub dose really good food. The site is some way from a town 5/6 miles and a bus service every 2 hours but nice buses on a Sunday

Do gestor: Hi Thank you for your review which is much appreciated. Regarding the grey water, we are happy for campers to empty this around the hedgerows and trees. In dryer times this helps to keep the site lush and green. Regards Louise

Gostou: Very lovely couple, first time staying here and they was very welcoming. They was great with our children and the site was well kept, lovely and quiet. Overall was a great experience an Holme Lea, will definitely be visiting again.

Gostou: Great welcome from the friendly host. Was given the option of where to set up our campervan, which we really appreciated due to enjoying our privacy. Lovely site situated in a beautiful part of Lincolnshire at very affordable and fair price. Once we were setup we felt at home and made to feel that our booking choice was right for us. After a pleasant exchange with the hosts and talking about our possible return, we would be very interested in staying in the new station wagon with its private enclosure and beautiful decor which we was shown around by Steve and Louise. Had an overall great stay on this peaceful and respectful site, we will visit again for sure, if your looking to escape a busy city life as we do then this place ticks all the boxes, we would just like to thank you both again for making our first campervan experience as memorable as it was, see you soon.

Gostou: Brilliant as always. Such a lovely family run campsite who are very helpful. When we arrived it was late at night and lashing it down with rain and the next morning the came and asked us if we needed anything put in the tumble dryer. There is so much room for the kids to play which they really enjoy.

Do gestor: Hi Thank you so much for the lovely review. Our aim is for visitors to have the best camping break they can, complementary reviews make it all worth while. Hope to see you back at some point. Regards Louise

Gostou: Great little campsite, owners are so welcoming. Electric is paid via a meter that you top up which is so much better for us as we don’t tend to use a lot. Grounds are great toilets clean

Gostou: I liked nothing about our stay.

Não gostou: We booked for a VW style campervan and the site was not suitable for our set up, the weather had made the field boggy so we were unable to drive on and off our pitch. We were forced to stay for the first night of our 2 night stay as it was Easter weekend and we had driven 3 hours to get there so could not go elsewhere so short notice. We got stuck in the mud so could not get our van on to our pitch so had no access to the electric we access this through the van. I asked for a refund for the second night which I thought was fair as we would not be staying. I did not ask for the first night to be refunded even though we were not provided what we had booked for. I was met with abruptness and rudeness, no customer service skills whatsoever, I was also met with excuse after excuse. Such as "others have got on" These individuals were towed on and were static setups not vans that were coming and going. We were accused of shouting past 11pm when we were just 2 women campers not part of the large group that were drinking and shouting until midnight which the owners did nothing about even when they were swearing loudly while young children were trying to sleep! The owners also accused us of being "difficult from the start" if this was the case then surely they could have turned us away? Again, they said it was "our choice" we could have left our van on the hard standing. This was not an option as we have a VW style campervan...... The van IS our camping setup AND our transportation unlike the other guests who had static setups who could then leave vehicles on the hardstanding, but the hosts could not seem to grasp this and continued to blame my wife and I for the decisions we had made. We commented on their Facebook page and posted photos of being stuck in the mud after they had advertised "a good time had by all". We were then accused of taking photos of only "the worst parts!" You can clearly see in the images, we took photos of our stuck van and the only access to the site. When we were eventually towed off site (after waiting over an hour for the privilege, Steve told me he should be charging me another £50 to do so. The owners want to earn as much as possible to do as little as possible for their guests. Upon arrival I needed to use the toilet and had to be shown how to flush it, by putting my hand in the system as the flusher was broken, the toilet door lock was broken and the showers were not working. When we commented about the showers not working on the facebook page, we were told "you never asked about a shower!" I should not have to ask about using a shower when the host advertises they are available on site. Other campers were having to go into the owners house shower. If this is an onsite facility, I should be able to shower when I please, not when it is convenient for the owner for me to shower! The hosts kept stated that "we knew what to expect" as it was a grass pitch at the end of March. I have stayed on grass pitches in December! I expect to get wet and muddy but I have never had issues with getting off and on site. I have known owners lay boards, throw down sand or gravel on access pathways so that campers can access pitches. If you know your site can get boggy in wet weather then you should do something about it or open seasonally not blame your guests and then go round to all the other campers to rally their support. Extremely unprofessional behaviour. I am sure there will be a response to this review blaming us again as they seem to have an answer for everything including referring to their 10 out of 10 reviews on pitch up but these are clearly regulars with static set ups who don't mind being towed off and on site.

Do gestor: Camp Owner's Response. These comments are not correct:- Holme Lea had contacted as many imminent customers as we could get hold of, to inform them of the ground conditions, leaving them the choice of whether to cancel or not. The entrance onto the site was fine initially however due to a few sharp showers it did become slippery. We had a mixture of campers on Site including other tents, motor homes, and caravans. Quite a few including ordinary cars were able to drive on and off unaided depending on their vehicle. Those that would struggle were offered to be taken to their pitch to avoid making conditions any worse. Then politely asked if they wouldn't mind leaving their vehicle on the hardstanding, they were happy to do this. These campers refused this! getting stuck on two occasions. They are right in the comment the site was not suitable for their set up. They were provided with what they had booked for. Their behaviour and attitude was poor from the start and in hindsight we should have refused access. They were swearing and shouting at each other when setting up next to families with small children. 1. Owners were on Site constantly through day until dark, and contactable at all times via phone. 2. We do not have any statics on site as alleged. 3. My husband was repairing a toilet handle on their arrival. This is maintenance! 4. Showers are payable separately as detailed on Pitch Up. Key is then provided for use of that room. 5. We are a farm Site and don't have hardstanding or gravel areas. The Site was fine at the beginning of Easter break but due to heavy showers the entrance condition did get muddy. We restricted numbers on site this weekend in case this should happen. If we were greedy we wouldn't have done this. 6. We charge £20 per night for 2 people. We are the opposite of greedy. 7. We were on Site constantly with 4x4 if needed. 8. I made hot cross buns and took them round to campers who were on site at the time. 9. My husband spent some time helping another camper who needed assistance with equipment, which he is happy to do. 10.Both my husband and I are friendly and there to help, however when you are met with bad attitude, rudeness and swearing that can wear thin. Other campers that heard them carrying on commented on their behaviour. 11.We have got good reviews from previous customers who come back due to the good value and our hospitality. 90% this weekend were people that had not visited us before. No Static Set Ups whatsoever as alleged !! Basically these two were miffed because we didn't refund their second night, which we were not obliged to do.

Gostou: Great location, great stay the owners were very accommodating and helpful, they really made us feel welcome by going the extra mile printing bus timetables off and even offering a lift to the pub. One of the friendliest sites we have been on
