Date of Visit: December 2015 Unit:  Touring Caravan
Reviewer: The Waterfallers 2 reviews from this member

 What a fabulous find. Nestled away in beautiful countryside this peaceful gem of a caravan site. Easy but secure access and very well kept grounds and lake. Lovely modern facilities, always clean and oodles of HOT water. Owners very welcoming and helpful. Unfortunately we don't fish but talking to the fishermen on site they were very happy with the lake and peg locations. Nice local pubs in walking distance and shops, restaurants and attractions only a short car ride away. We'll definitely be returning soon and be recommending this site to all our friends. Well done Groobys.

Reviewer: Babetoo 2 reviews from this member

 We found this site on the uk. Campsite excited because we had bought our very first motorhome named babetoo. We arrived in the darkness that is winter just in time (teatime)for our first experience of a lincolnshire hurricaine. Torrential rain, tornado force winds and temperatures to make a polar bear reach for a heater. We haven`t camped before and quite frankly we didn`t have a clue how to set up our motorhome for the first time, what an experience. Overnight winds tried to upturn our motorhome and torrential rain made sure only one of us got a good nights sleep. But when we woke in the morning oh my god what a beautiful setting for us. We were parked facing a lake within 2 yards with swans and ducks and complete tranquility. Enough to take your breath away. Toilet blocks were clean and we were made to feel very welcome. We visited skegness which appeared closed because of the time of year and weather but was beautiful. Windy. Very cold. Fish and chips were rubbish compared to bridlington but welcome in the cold. We cannot fault this site because it was beautifully kept, tranquil and the owners made us feel very welcome and were very helpful the following morning when we were attampting to fill our van with water. Would come to this site again

 We were let down somewhere else, it was getting late and dark so we had a quick search and called Groobys. Luckily for us the owners weren't far away and said we were welcome to stay.

We were warmly welcomed and shown to our pitch, Tracy was very helpful and called the local pub to make sure they were opening and serving food (end of season). The toilets/showers spotless and modern.

The owners were great and we couldn't have asked for more. Would definitely recommend.

Reviewer: Kstapleton 3 reviews from this member

 Fourth time at groobys pit and the 5 star standards are still on show. We had two caravans in our party who all fished and caught plenty all week long. The site and showers are immaculate as usual. Good local pub around the corner and nice dog walks along the nearby river bank. This site has a lovely countryside feel to it yet not far from wainfleet spilsby or Skegness so a big thankyou to neil and tracey for all their hard work (we will be back) 


Date of Visit: August 2015 Unit:  Trailer Tent
Reviewer: Ross5tay 1 review from this member

 Well, what can we say! Brilliant! Absolutely fantastic, out of all the places I've camped, this has been the best experience so far. Tracey and Neil are so nice, you feel so welcome and at home, both so very helpful and will drop whatever they are doing to help. (Thanks Neil for helping me when we had no light)

Great welcome pack with details of walks, pubs, shops, takeaways etc. Was given some free eggs by Tracey, and some tomatoes and a cucumber all home grown.

Some lovely walks and bike rides, nice river and quiet roads.

The site is peaceful, quiet and very tranquil. All pitches over look the lake, very well lit and a very friendly atmosphere. Although I didn't fish, but wish I had, the lake was very nice, well kept, well thought about swims, some hard standing and some grass. Very well stocked and see some lovely fish being caught, and lots of them. We sat round the lake in the evening to watch the sun set. Can't wait to go back.

The toilet block is very well maintained, fresh, clean, warm and cosy. I've stayed in hotels that didn't have toilets and showers as nice as these.

Would recommend to any one and have done so already, will 100% be returning, and definitely fishing next time. The pod looks nice so planning a weekend in that.

Thanks again Tracey and Neil.

There are chickens, ducks and geese free range on site no problem although will try to get to your fishing bait.

Reviewer: ML60BAR 15 reviews from this member

 What a delightful site, with friendly helpful owners. Tracey met us with eggs and a welcome pack and gave us a choice of two pitches. Toilet facilities spotless. Adults only, so plenty of peace and watching wildlife. Good local pub, and quiet roads around excellent for cycling. A gem of a site, good value for money, a very enjoyable couple of days.

Reviewer: The highbury 25 reviews from this member

 This was our first stay. We found it to be a lovely well kept and well managed site. We were met by Tracy who had a lovely warm smile and she gave us a welcome pack with some lovely fresh laid eggs. This site is a credit to Tracy & Neil as everything you need is here. The peace and quite. There is a added bonus they have a barrier for your security so you no that your caravan or motor-home would be safe. The showers and toilets are very very clean. Its a site to keep in mind. You are not far from the coast. Just leaves me to say thank you Tracy & Neil for making our stay a very nice one.

Reviewer: Kstapleton 3 reviews from this member

 Just returned from Groobys Pit and I must say its the most immaculate site we've every been on! Neil & Tracey work tirelessly to keep it so. Nothing is too much trouble for them. The showers and toilets are as new and an kept that way, the fishing is great and close to the pitches so not too far to walk. The site is not far from the coast for a day out. There was an abundance of wildlife to sit and watch and a nice walk to the local pub, The Three Tuns where we had a lovely meal, and we would highly recommend. All in all we had a wonderful week and will definitely go back. A big thanks to Neil & Tracey.

Reviewer: Davedaveydave 9 reviews from this member

 A great site from booking to departure.

On phoning to book I was informed by Tracy I would be called back shortly as she was out and about. Within 30 mins Tracy called to confirm that a pitch was available and that an email would be sent with details to pay the deposit via Paypal.

Once the deposit had been paid another email arrived confirming that payment had been received and detailing the outstanding balance due on arrival.

The site is easy to find and navigate to off the A52 then through Wainfleet.

On arrival we were greeted by Tracy who handed us a welcome pack with codes for the security barrier and amenity block, details of local pubs, walks etc.

We had a choice of pitches, and after choosing we were allowed to site our van whichever way we liked.

There are 2 toilets/showers/sinks for both male and female. Accessed via a keypad they are immaculate and kept spotless.

The site is located of a lane and the pitches are around a fishing lake. The owners chickens are friendly along with the resident ducks and geese they provide added interest. We didn't see the kingfisher or the owl, but that's because we were out so much of the time visiting friends.

There is so much to do in the area, Skegness is only 20mins away by car. We also visited Tattershall Castle, Battle of Britain Memorial Flight centre, Lincolnshire Aviation Museum and Gibraltar Point.

We returned one day to find that Neil (Tracy's husband) had positioned one of their camping pods to protect our awning which was suffering from the strong winds that had blown up. Add to that 2 eggs from the chickens one morning and you have a beautifully kept and maintained site with exemplary owners in a great location.

Would return without hesitation.

Reviewer: Chrisbonham11 1 review from this member

 A lovely peaceful site with a very warm welcome from attentive owners Tracey and Neil. The pitch was very good and the toilet block was immaculate. Tracey and Neil's recommendations of nearby places of interest are spot on. Overall, a very enjoyable weekend, and if we're in that part of the world again, we'll be sure to stay at Grooby's Pit!

Reviewer: Sanwaz 1 review from this member

 A gem of a site. Immaculate toilet block at all times. Lovely owners, Tracey really goes out of her way top make you feel welcome. Freshly laid eggs for brekkie too. We don't fish but was really relaxing with the lake just in front of the van. Quiet and peaceful surroundings. Not far from local pubs, short walk down river bank to the friendly local. Short drive to shops and takeaways, and only about 7 miles to Skegs. All in all a super, small and relaxing site. We will definitely be returning.

Reviewer: Michael Clarke 1 review from this member

 A great site with great owners - what more would anyone want? From the very friendly welcome by Tracey, complete with welcome pack and free eggs for our first breakfast, through to being told not to rush on leaving day, this was a very enjoyable week.

The site is kept in superb condition, the toilet/shower block is always spotlessly clean and no vehicle movement on site between 10pm and 8am makes for peaceful nights.

The lake is ideal for leisure fishing, throughout the week I caught roach, bream and several decent sized carp. I even almost landed a large pike.

All in all I was so impressed with the service and the site I have written this as my first ever review!

Reviewer: Suesteve 1 review from this member

 First visit for a weekend stay. Very well maintained site with good security (entry/exit barrier with keycode). Made very welcome by Tracy and Neil with a Welcome pack containing lots of useful info re pubs, local shops, opening times etc. Beautiful site - lots of wildlife and (at time of stay) - blackberries and a few plums to pick!

Friendly chickens wandering about and we were informed there is a barnowl in the area.

We didn't take our cycles but speaking to our neighbours, understand that there are good, quiet lanes to use to visit neighbouring villages.

Toilet (and showers!) are immaculate and the site is very well run. Thank you Tracy and Neil for a warm welcome and a very pleasant weekend.

Although we don't fish, the lake looks excellent.

 Well another great stay at this wonderful site superbly run by the owners, peace and tranquillity by the bucket full even though the weather tried its best to spoil our stay. The local shops have everything for your needs and The Three Tuns does food now. The showers were very clean and Hot there is even a fridge for those in tents, 16amp electric and no charge for awnings who could ask for more. And for those that like to fish it is also great.
