Great back to basics site with family activities.

Aug 2026

Liked Stayed here for a night during a bicycle trip - nice flat pitch, plenty of info before the night and lots of activities on site. Very basic toilets which I don't mind and clear rules which I appreciate. Quick bike ride into the village where there's a couple of decent shops, which was a bit of a godsend for me after a long ride.

A very basic, genuine site that feels like camping in the old days.

Aug 2025

Liked I loved the peace and quiet of Ambers Lodge. It's very clear in the listing that this is specifically a quiet site with several rules to make sure this happens. I always look for this in a site, and have lost track of the amount of times a 'peaceful and tranquil' site ends up more like a nightclub at 1am. Thankfully, this site delivered on the promise. The site does have very basic facilities, which won't be everyone's cup of tea and this would be best seen as a 'back to basics' site, almost like a farm site from the old days. i.e basic facilities with a fee to match. Because of this, I would say this is perhaps not the place to come for a first camping trip, or if you're used to camping club type facilities, unless you adjust your expectations dramatically. That said, the facilities that are there are cleaned regularly and I have no doubt that the exceptionally friendly owner and caretaker would try very hard to accommodate any requests. In summary, I loved the old school vibe of the place, and would say that the site and staff are the most genuine and least pretentious I've come across in years. Finally in terms of location, the site is superb. You have a short drive/moderate walk to Sutton on Sea and Mablethorpe, as well as Skegness. I haven't been to this area in around 20 years, and had a day out in Mablethorpe to relive my youth and fell in love with the place all over again. A traditional seaside town that's big enough to have the noise of the arcades etc, with relaxing quiet areas just a short walk away. The beach is award winning, and it's just a positive time overall.

Disliked I didn't dislike anything, except that it's not open longer, as I'd definitely had come back again before the winter.
