Why stay here ...

Welcome to our quiet CL on our small sheep and cattle farm next to the river Witham. We very much hope you enjoy your stay with us.

If you visit from August 2014 you will see we have added a summerhouse which contains details of things to do and see locally. It also has maps of the four walks you can enjoy from the CL, all on quiet, picturesque lanes.

Barkston has a petrol station with a well stocked shop and garage and The Stag Inn serves good food. The village is on the A607 with good links to the A1, Lincoln and Sleaford.

Syston Park farm shop is a mile away and has a restaurant and PYO.  

Within two miles is National Trust property Belton House - well worth a visit.  

Belton also boasts two well appointed golf courses.

Grantham is four miles away. Discover where Isaac Newton went to school, where Margaret Thatcher grew up and the country's only living pub sign, The Beehive Inn.

Slightly further afield is Belvoir Castle, Isaac Newton's birthplace Woolsthorpe Manor (National Trust property - see the famous apple tree) and Easton Walled Gardens. Lincoln boasts it's famous Cathedral, Castle and much more. Newark is a fine market town with much history.

Lincolnshire is "Bomber County" and there is much to see, in particular the Battle of Britain Memorial Flight.  

Dogs very welcome, good walks nearby

Little Gem

Mill Farm
Our first time at Mill Farm but will be returning. Lovely flat field with excellent views. Steve, the farmer, very friendly and helpful. Great walks from farm, through fields, woods, over railway and stepping stones over river. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in June 2023 and hope to come back soon.

A lovely, flat grassy field. Great views over the local countryside, with cattle and sheep nearby. Pub and shop in the village a short walk away, and useful information in the summer house giving details of local walks. Easy to locate (just off the Grantham to Lincoln road) with several places of interest near by. I am sure we will visit again.

A lovely quiet and peaceful CL site

Mill Farm
A lovely, quiet farm field with pleasant scenic views. All the pitches have electric hook up and the site is very level. A nice idea is the summer house in the corner of the field which contains maps and brochures for local sites and walks. There is a little supermarket at the BP garage, 10 minutes walk, but be aware it is a little bit pricey but conveniently located. We also visited Syston Park farm shop, in the next village and the pub is in Barkston. The local countryside is brilliant for walks and despite some poor weather we were able to take full advantage of these. Steve Elnor runs a busy farm but is still always on hand if required by the campers. A lovely couple of days break and we will be back in the future.

Good Value

Mill Farm
We have just spent the weekend here,the site is small basic and fairly level.It is close to the A1 and easy to find.A good site for stop over or as we did it was good for walking as there are many walk ways from the site.The owner is friendly and runs the working farm(lots of sheep)There is a pub nearby within walking distance but we didn't go.For £12 a night it is good value!

What a perfect little Gem hidden off the beaten track.

Mill Farm
We have just this year started using CL's. This picturesque site is perfect for short or long stays. A fenced field with views over and past the BellMount that leads to Belton House is wonderful. Great location for walks with your four legged friend, and lots of places to visit nearby. If you intend to visit the Barkston Stag pub make sure you book in advance (When you book the CL) as its very popular and we failed to get seated. If you like to sit back watch the clouds roll by while sheep and cows roam around you're going to like it!
