We have just returned from a most enjoyable 4 day break at this excellent CL site. We understand it is the first year of opening, a very well maintained, adults only, rural site, with a locked gate all times. (given a key for the duration of stay) Electric & Water on hand. Recycling & chemical waste area very clean and well marked.
A warm welcome by the owners on arrival, given a small map of the area alongside local places of interest . The Plough Inn at Hickling is just a short walk away, serves food everyday and a great pint of Bass, they have a large beer garden, dogs made welcome, entertainment some evenings. The walks around this site are well marked and maintained, the Grantham Canal in Hickling Village is 5 mins walk down the road or if you have a bicycle great tow path surface and flat for we oldies . A mixture of wild life on the canal and on the road in Hickling. ( Bag of bread and you are a friend for life) If you like fishing just down the road is the Canal basin at Hickling day tickets available.
Along the drive to the site is a Farm Shop / Nursery. The shop is very well stocked, fresh bread, cakes/ milk/fruit & vegetables/delicatessen plus everyday basic essentials.( Sunday papers available). We came home with plants from the Nursery (very good prices)
We will be visiting this site again and recommending it to all are caravan friends.
