  • Peaceful 18-acre rural site five minutes' drive from Haxey
  • Yorkshire Wildlife Park and Scunthorpe within a half-hour drive
  • Dog training sessions on site
Lupine Woods Camping is a peaceful rural site spread over 18 acres of lovely north Lincolnshire countryside about five minutes’ drive from the village of Haxey. The site is tucked away at the end of a two-mile country track and well away from any main roads so it’s a fine spot for those seeking a bit of space and seclusion. It’s right next door to the Haxey Turbary Lincolnshire Wildlife Trust nature reserve, and has its own woodland walk so it’s also a splendid pick for photography and wildlife spotting. If you think all this sounds like the sort of thing your dog might enjoy very much, you’d probably be right – and indeed well-behaved dogs are most welcome here, with an exercise paddock to race about in and lots of excellent walks to take in nearby. On top of that, the site often runs courses in such skills as agility, scent work and obedience – have a chat with the folk here to see what might be running during your stay. Not got a canine chum to bring along? Perhaps you’d like to take the chance to spend some quiet time hanging out around your pitch – each one is pleasingly spacious, with easy ins and outs on flat, well-drained surfaces. There are plenty of water points scattered around the place, and guests have access to showers and toilets close to the pitches.

Liked: Absolutely loved this site. Pitch very nice. The owner was lovely, such a nice man. The site was well kept. There a woodland walk that I would recommend people go to and a beautiful small nature reserve less than 10 mins walk from the site.

Disliked: Only things we didn't like. But they can't be helped. The toilets r a bit small and only 1 shower for the site. But have been told that's because they can't build a bigger one.
The noise from other campers till 2am. But as it was a weekend was expected

From the manager: Thank you, we are so pleased you enjoyed your stay.

Regarding showers, there are 2, one for men and one for ladies, but agree its not a lot at peak times. We are trying to work out how we can offer more without any more building.
We do ask campers to respect others with our 11 pm curfew on noise - most people are great and honor this, enjoying the peace and quiet themselves. However, sometimes people have to be reminded and its difficult for us to police, but feel free to let us know at the time with a quick call if it happens again. We will happily come to ask for quiet. We can't hear it from our house on the lane.

Excellent, gentlemen who came and greeted us, nothing was too much

Liked: We had such a lovely weekend at lupine camp-sight. The gentleman ( I assume the owner) was extremely lovely and attentive, nothing was too much trouble for him, he was always happy to help and was friendly and chatty.

The location was lovely surrounded by field and woodland, it was so quiet and peaceful.

It was a basic camp sight but had all the amenities that you needed and was clean and tidy.

The locals are so lovely as well, we went for a walk and bumped in to so manny locals that we stoped and had a chat with and they was all so lovely and welcoming.

Will deffo recommend and will deffo be going back.

Thank you for making our stay so welcome and lovely.

Disliked: Nothing to dislike.

Liked: The feel of the campsite, very calm and peaceful. Lots of space. Clean toilets and showers.

Disliked: We arrived late (due to flat tire, traffic etc. beyond our control), so I appreciate that it could be frustrating to check someone in at that time, however at check-in we felt very unwelcome and made to feel even worse about our late arrival. The pot wash station was out of service, although this was absolutely fine as we just washed up from a kettle and bowl. The road towards the campsite has lots of deep pot holes so took us a long time to drive along the lane as we were worried about our caravan.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: I do apologise. I think you found me half asleep it being so late we had given you up. Certainly not our usual welcome. Please come again.

A lovely site in such beautiful surroundings, just perfect!!

Michelle W. The reviewer booked through Pitchup.com

Powered grass travel trailer campsite

Liked: Lupine Woods is such a beautiful setting for a peaceful few days away with family and friends. Despite constant rain for days beforehand the ground was still hard, no mud or puddles.
Particularly loved seeing all the dragonflies that were around, a mating pair even landed on my head which was perhaps a step too far but beautiful all the same.
Dan was very helpful, both on the phone after booking and when we arrived. Very pleasant and knowledgeable, and lovely to know he had planted the 11acre wood as a child with his Father.
My husband used the shower and said it was fine and the toilets were adequate. Possibly could do with more of both if lots of people in tents were staying.
It was a really lovely place to spend a couple of nights with friends and will most definitely be back.

Disliked: Although we didn't need to use the washing up facilities we did try one morning as we had lots of greasy pots fromna communal fry up. We found them out of use. There was a note to say use the sinks in the toilets but that wasn't ideal so we did them all together back at the motorhomes. Wasn't a problem for us but could be for others.

Local attractions

A couple of worthwhile attractions are within a 10-minute drive of this park, including the petting zoo and kids’ play area at Shepherds Place Farm. Travel the same distance for Epworth, the birthplace of John and Charles Wesley (10 minutes) too, or make tracks a tad further for transportation-related high jinks at The Trolley Bus Museum (20 minutes). Another ace selection of displays to add to the itinerary are at the aviation-themed Vulcan Experience (20 minutes), an open-air space housing two of the Cold War's most famed aircraft: the Avro Vulcan B2 and the McDonnell Douglas Phantom II. Prefer animals to aircraft? Yomp to Yorkshire Wildlife Park (25 minutes) and Messingham Zoo or meet the rescued creatures at Bransby Horses centre (40 minutes) instead. Top off your trip by traipsing around Brodsworth Hall and Gardens (40 minutes), one of England’s most intact Victorian country homes.
