  • Family park 10 minutes' drive from Skegness
  • Kids' club, fishing lakes, golf course and evening entertainment
  • Bar, restaurant, pool, sauna and modern amenities
Wahey, it's Skeggy! If you too are somewhat fond of Lincolnshire's seaside capital Skegness, how sensible would it be to stay within a couple of miles of it – and on a family holiday park with loads to do, thoroughly modern facilities and a club to send the kids off to during the day? Very sensible, that's how much. Pack the kids off to make friends and stay busy with the Starland Krew while you make the most of the facilities for grownups: two fishing lakes, a nine-hole golf course, indoor pool, sauna and spa pool… You might also rather fancy a wander around the acres of landscaped parkland, perhaps hiding with a book until kids' club is over? Southview Leisure Park has lots of entertainment including cabaret, shows and tribute acts in the evening at the Lakeside Showbar; if you're still hankering after a quieter vibe, sail into the Boathouse bar and restaurant for a cocktail or a meal, or pick up a classic seaside dinner at the fish and chip shop.

What customers say

Great family spot with loads to do and eat. Pitch sizes and staff get good marks, plus kids' entertainment. But, cleanliness in loos/showers was a letdown for many – often dirty, old, and low on supplies. Food prices also a bit steep for some.

Liked It was a way from home

Disliked Touring shower block, very dirty smelled of sewage, swimming pool dirty, food from 1 restaurant tasted dry and took over an hour. Very expensive and boring. Not a lot of things to do for older kids (9&13) that they could do without paying. Paid £30 for internet and had none unless in the club house

Local attractions

It's but a 10-minute drive to the sands of Skeggy from Southview Leisure Park for seaside days out on its beach, along its pier and whooping among the rides of Skegness Pleasure Beach. If you're new to dipping a wetsuit-clad toe in the water, have a waterskiiing or kitesurfing lesson at Skegness Water Leisure Park. At Skeggy you'll also find Natureland Seal Sanctuary, and the Gibraltar Point Nature Reserve to the resort's south, one of the best places on the Lincolnshire coast to see gulls, waders and wildfowl. (If it's seals you want to see, go north to the Donna Nook National Nature Reserve between Grainthorpe Haven in the north and Saltfleet.) Four miles from Skegness is Ingoldmells, another Lincolnshire seaside town that's a hit with families, mainly because of its theme park Fantasy Island where record breakers can try Europe’s longest looping rollercoaster and the world’s longest suspended rollercoaster or, more calmly, browse the massive indoor market, open seven days a week. Driving north from Skegness leads to other fun family resorts like Sutton-on-Sea and Mablethorpe, also topping for days out, or go inland for the Lincolnshire Wolds and food/antiques/gift shopping at Lincolnshire's market towns like Alford, Horncastle and Louth.
