When we arrived we were greeted by the site warden, who directed us to our pitch and highlighted the location of showers, WC, wash up, bins, etc. Despite it being the first day of the school holidays, the site was quiet.
Our pitch was level and although I'm unsure the amperage of the EHU, it didn't trip once - although the weather was so hot we never had to use our 2kW electric heater.
The shower/WC facilities consist of two bathrooms, each with a mini toilet and double size shower cubicle. They are without doubt the best shower/WC facilities I've seen; hotel standard in my opinion. In addition, there is plenty of hot water and no silly push button. For the number of pitches I would say 2 bathrooms is about right - I never had to queue and when the pub is open you can use the WC in there.
The campsite is enhanced considerably by the pub. It does a number of real ales; the food is excellent and good value for the portion size. There is a fantastic beer garden round back which in July held onto the sun until it set.
I inquired about walking in the area and teh warden came back with 2 leaflets with detailed info on several walks - 2 from the pub itself.
On the final night we paid for a fire pit which was supplied with sufficient wood to last the week. It was lovely to spend our last night outside the tent - drinking, chatting and toasty warm - all in the quiet seclusion of this fantastic campsite.
We will definitely be back and may take one of their glamping pods.
We stayed here as part of a short cycling tour and we hadn't pre-booked. There were one or two other units there, plus the glamps. The landlord wasn't sure how much to charge, as we didn't have a car, so went to ask the warden, who lives in a static caravan at the back of the pub and she said to charge us £12.
We were pleasantly surprised by the facilities, which are in two separate bathrooms at the side of the pub, exclusively for users of the camp site and glamps. The site itself is pleasant with a good covering of grass. The pub is ok, at least as far as beer is concerned, though we didn't eat there so can't comment on the food. We certainly intended to come back if our cycling took us into the Lincolnshire Wolds again.
In July 2015 we had a couple of days free so decided to return, but we noticed that the pub does not open on Mondays, and we were planning to stay Mon/Tue, so we thought we'd better check that the site was open. The website booking facility gives a flat fee of £18, which we thought was a steep increase, but we noticed that they charge £5 for an extra car, so assumed that last year's fees must have been 'minus one car'. When we phoned to enquire, we were passed from one person to the next and were finally told, rather abruptly, that £18 was what they were going to charge. Sadly, I don't think we'll be coming here again.
We had a lovely stay at this site over a weekend, we chose it to try out our 'new' 31 year old recycled caravan. We where greeted at the entrance by the wonderful warden who directed us on to the site and gave us the choice of a number of non electric pitches. The pitches are well mown and level.
The facilities are clean, modern and large, there are 2 showers with sink and toilet, there's even a hairdryer in them which was a bonus for my wifey seeing as we are non lecky. It was busy on the Sunday but we never experienced any queues.
The best facility is the pub, I do like a pub near where we camp and this was a very nice pub that's obviously had a bit of money spent on it this past year, we ate there twice and it was an enjoyable experience.
Another great feature are the fire pits you can hire, just take some extra firelighters and newspaper because the logs are massive and take some lighting, but once lit they last all night, perfect camping.
The site is in a very quiet and small village 6 miles between Louth and Horncastle, all the shops, takeaways, antiques you could wish for and the seaside isn't to far either. There is also a few nice walks from the pub !
All in all this is a great site in a nice place, just 12 pitches and several glamping pods, its perfect for smaller vans an tents and I would recommend it to those who enjoy a smaller site with no playgrounds etc.
We stayed in our motorhome on a wet weekend so thankfully got the only hard standing pitch otherwise we would still be there now! It was not clear that there was only one hardstanding pitch so check you get it if you need it.
The site is part of the pub and it was good to see it busy on a Friday night. The pub grub was nothing too special but reasonably priced and the beer and friendly bar staff made up for it.
Two mini toilets incorporating showers were ok while we were there because there were only 2 tents and 2 caravans. Might be a struggle at busy times though.
Lovely back way to Cadwell Park 5 mins on the moped or 15 mins cycle avoiding the main road and 6 miles to Horncastle for co op Tesco and independent shops and takeaways.
The campsite is tiny but beautifully maintained and in a very peaceful and picturesque location. It is dog-friendly and child friendly.
The toilets are spotlessly clean, the showers powerful, free and there is limitless(very)hot water. There is one washing-up sink with, again, very hot water.
Wonderful area for walking with leaflets describing walks within the area ranging from gentle strolls to longer rambles provided.
The Three Horseshoes is a charming pub with very friendly and helpful staff. Limited, but very well cooked menus and great ales.
The team were all very welcoming. They provided a free freezer pack service for us and when we were in the pub, made us feel very relaxed and part of the village community (being invited to represent the pub in a quiz night at another village).
We cannot recommend this site enough. We will certainly be paying future visits here.
An excellent pub and campsite. Flat neatly mown camping site, clean toilets & showers with plenty of hot water. Good dishwashing facilities with plenty of hot water here too. Very quiet picturesque area in the Lincolnshire wolds.
The pub is great, the beer (Tom Woods) is top class, the food is tasty, fresh and real yummy. The staff are very friendly, helpful and obliging and the locals are great too.
Very impressed with this establishment, it is a real gem. Visit it, enjoy it and respect it. A lovely place, we will be back. Thanks for making our stay so enjoyable.
So we have just arrived back home after a weekends camping at the Three Horseshoes. The site is small but don't be put off, it is set in a very tranquil location that is perfect for a relaxing break. After walking around the surrounding area there are loads of walks available so bring the dog or make sure you have your walking boots. The facilities are perfect for the size of the site and finished to a very high standard. We are looking forward to returning soon and hopefully finding the renovated pub open.
A nice quiet site set in a lovely part of the country.
The site has recently been updated and the toilets/showers have been fitted out to a very high standard for a campsite. One issue though is that if there are two people taking a shower then you'll have to wait for the toilet !
The other facilities are very limited at the moment - just a covered sink for washing dishes.
The site is small but there was plenty of space on the pitch for our large tent - probably best to check first though.
Wi-fi reception was no good in our (furthest) corner of the field but seemed better in other places.
The area is very quiet - which is fine when the weather is good (it wasn't) but means its a bit of a drive to anywhere with indoor stuff for kids.
We went to the banger racing at Skegness - good fun ! Lincoln is also lovely with great cafes, bars and restaurants near the Cathedral. But a word of warning Grimsby - don't do it!
People running the site are very helpful and friendly -I hope they make this site work.
Lastly if you go for a stroll through the field next to the site watch out for the cows - we were lucky escape with our lives !
