  • Family-run site on a 30-acre farm near Horncastle, Lincolnshire
  • Half an hour’s drive to Skegness, and 40 minutes to Gibraltar Point
  • Campfires encouraged: meals provided to heat up
Off to Lincolnshire for some rural rest and relaxation? Get back to nature and the simple life with a stay at welcoming New Farm Holidays, set in 30 acres of peaceful woodland near Horncastle. This is properly remote camping, so why not have a wander around the organic farm? There’s bags of room for kids to run off energy in complete safety, building dens, playing games and splashing around in the lake. Or how about sitting back on clear nights to watch the stars twinkling in the Milky Way? Mains electricity, flushing toilets, a hot shower and dishwashing facilities are all available on site, along with wifi. The car park is 100 yards from the pitches, and a large cart is available for guests to shift their gear onto site. A roaring fire is essential when you’re camping, and at New Farm Holiday, every pitch has a dedicated firepit area so you can curl up in the warmth with a glass of wine or cook up a barbecue. A large bag of logs, kindling and firelighters is available for a small charge, or you’re welcome to bring your own logs – but please don’t gather firewood from the woods.

Camping pod (no pets, private bathroom amenities)

Liked: Beautiful sight, with all the amenities you would need. Very peaceful and relaxing stay, owners are very responsive - lots to do around the area, my kids loved it, spotted a hare in the morning and a few pheasants, near an RAF site so might spot some eurofighters flying by.

Amazing to be able to see so many stars just Make sure you’re prepared for no lighting on site except the toilet/kitchen hut.
Nice picnic table just in the right place to tent.

Electric forest floor tent pitch (woodland)

Liked: We had a brilliant long weekend on one of the woodland pitches. It had such a cosy atmosphere, and the pitches, toilet facilities, and woods were kept and managed beautifully. The campfire, bench, and log box at our pitch were greatly appreciated and the kids loved how dark it got at night and how may star we could see.

Camping pod

Liked: We stayed in a classic camping pod and really enjoyed our stay. We wanted something basic enough to know we was camping but I liked the idea of an actual roof over my head!
The pods are located in a wooded area with enough room between the pods to feel spacious. The toilet and shower room was always clean and well stocked with toilet roll, the sink area had a sponge and wash liquid.
Overall we was happy with our stay and are planning to come back with our kids!

Electric forest floor tent pitch (woodland)

Liked: Just lovely. We camped in the woods and it was everything we hoped for! Our children had a great time exploring the woods (as did our Doxie). It was very quiet as there are only 5 pitches and there is plenty of space between everyone. The kids made friends and played in the middle were we could sit around the fire and watch them. Great washing up and toilet / shower facilities, and to top it the owners were very friendly and welcoming and sent out lots of helpful information leading up to our visit. Will definitely be returning as my 8 year old said it’s the best place he’s ever been camping :)

Electric forest floor tent pitch (woodland)

Liked: Woodland peaceful surroundings. The electric and WiFi were added bonuses as this was the first time I'd talked my wife of 26 years into camping.....she loved it!

Clean toilets, hot shower and large pitch to put the tent up on.

Lovely place.

Disliked: The bumpy road in, drive carefully! Though the owners do warn you, it's definitely not for speeding down.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Over the moon to report that Folly Lane and Hagnaby Lock have been completely resurfaced! To ne honest, I never thought I'd see it. The road is now a thing of beauty! :)

Absolutely awesome place to stay if you after peace and quiet time.…

Camping pod

Liked: Absolutely awesome place to stay if you after peace and quiet time. Clean and comfy pod, clean toilets and overall place looked after really well. Only downside is the road leading to it, but was manageable in lowered vw golf doing 15mph so as long as you take it steady than you too should be fine. Cheap fire wood too

Local attractions

From coast to countryside, activities to attractions, Lincolnshire has masses to offer all comers, what with family jaunts around a dinosaur trail and encounters with rare arctic foxes at ARK Wildlife and Dinosaur Park (five minutes’ drive), and meeting cheeky parrots or feeding tigers at Lincolnshire Wildlife Park (15 minutes). If you’d rather spot some wildlife actually in the wild, Gibraltar Point National Nature Reserve (40 minutes) is the place to be, for rambles across dunes and the chance to spot colonies of common seals. If you like to be beside the seaside, Skegness (half an hour) is a riot of family fun, with amusement arcades, go-karting, mini-golf and fairground rides – and that’s before you hit the sandy beach. If you’d prefer a more sedate trip to the coast, the New Farm team recommend their favourite spot, Chapel Six Marshes (40 minutes). Lincolnshire’s also known for its military connections: the Lincolnshire Aviation Heritage Centre (10 minutes) is home to one of the few Lancaster Bombers still in existence, and there are more vintage World War Two planes on display at the Battle of Britain Memorial Flight Visitors Centre (20 minutes).
