  • Peaceful park five miles from Skegness
  • Next to Burgh le Marsh at the foot of the Lincolnshire Wolds
  • Well-stocked fishing lake on site
It’s not all about the seaside at Lincolnshire’s Skegness… Although the sand there is indeed fine, so also is the peaceful and remote location of Jockhedge Touring Park, on 25 acres of greenery five miles from Skeggy and next to the ancient village of Burgh le Marsh at the foot of the Lincolnshire Wolds. Since Jockhedge opened for its first season in 2014 it has assembled accolades for its spick and span facilities including its modern, bright luxury shower and loo block with underfloor heating, hairdryers, hand dryers, shaver points and separate male and female showers (the staff can open a family bathroom for you if you’re on site with the kids). Pitches are equally well-maintained and come with electric hook-up, water and foul/grey water drainage on each. Supplies and food are well sorted nearby: a café, mini supermarket and petrol station are within five minutes’ walk, and Burgh le Marsh has award-winning restaurant The Windmill, plenty of food pubs and several shops including the highly recommended Holmes butchers. Just outside the village, the farm shop at Lyndhurst Garden Centre sells locally sourced fruit and veg. Jockhedge also has a well-stocked fishing lake, and an impressive looking adventure playground for mini explorers complete with swings, seesaw and a most enticing-looking wooden playhouse: do see if Dad can squeeze in there too.

Fully-serviced hardstanding and grass touring pitch

Liked: Lovely quiet and very well maintained site. The toilet / shower facilities were extremely clean, warm and well maintained. Our arrival was handled in a friendly and welcoming way, and everything was explained to us. We were new to Motor homing - and this was our first trip away - ever - so we were a little nervous - but needn't have been.

Disliked: My only comment is the 5 minutes walk to the village - was for us at least 15 - 20. It took at least 5 minutes to get to the entrance on the road from the pitches. I admit I walk with a stick - but I'm not that slow- so just bear in mind its not quite as close on foot - as it is as the crow flies.

Fully-serviced hardstanding and grass touring pitch

Liked: The location and facilities were great, although the toilet empting area could have been cleaner and some sanatiser should be available !!! Due to the heavy rain fall the ground around the hard standing was very muddy especially by the electric hook up and water point, some sawdust would have been helpful!!

Disliked: Nothing

Liked: Perfect site, not to big around 20 pitches. Spotlessly clean shower and toilet block. Family shower room is superb. Laundry room is an added bonus with an ironing board and iron. Play area for kids. Also in a very nice little village with plenty of shops.

Local attractions

The long sands of Skegness and neighbouring Ingoldmells are both five miles from Jockhedge Touring Park, and both have a lot more to do after soaking up sun on the beach. Soar around Skegness via kitesurfing or waterskiing; lessons and wetsuit hire are available for brave beginners at Skegness Water Leisure Park. Tiddlers can try splashing about under the sprinklers of the Fairy Dell paddling pool by Skegness’s boating lake or toddling around the tots’ area at Captain Kids Adventure World indoors on the Grand Parade, one of several indoor play centres on this part of coast. Also at Skegness, the Natureland Seal Sanctuary and National Parrot Sanctuary are colourful options for rainy days: if the kids want to get their beaks into more exotic feathered things, Squawk on the Wild Side at Burgh le Marsh’s Lyndhurst Garden Centre has regular shows and displays. The Gibraltar Point National Nature Reserve, from the southern end of Skegness along the coastline, is where to see birds in their natural environment along its three-mile stretch to the Wash. For all creatures great and small, Hardys Animal Farm at Ingoldmells can be used to calm down at after the jaw-dropping rides of Fantasy Island, which has the world’s longest suspended rollercoaster as well as Europe’s longest looping rollercoaster. Europe’s biggest indoor market is here too (at Ingoldmells, not the rollercoaster): it’s a fairly sure bet that all ages will find something to bring home among its 220 stalls. If not, go to Alford wallet in hand: the ancient market town has a famed farmers’ market once a week, craft markets twice a week in summer, antique shops and Alford Pottery. A bucketful of seaside and market towns are easy to reach from Skegness, such as the ‘bathing beauties’ (beach huts) of Sutton-on-Sea and Mablethorpe to the north; the capital of the Lincolnshire Wolds Louth, and the antique shops and twelfth century church of Horncastle to the west with countryside cycle path running along to Woodhall Spa. Stop off at Woodhall Spa for an afternoon: pine woods surround this viewsome Edwardian village and include a cottage museum and the Kinema in the Woods, reely impressive as one of the first cinemas in Britain. There are also two golf courses (the one at Woodhall Spa Golf Club has been called the best inland course in the country) and a squadron of aviation sites: the Dambusters flew from here and its officers’ mess is now Woodhall’s Petwood Hotel with Squadron Bar. Finally, take at least a day in Lincoln, an hour’s drive from Burgh le Marsh, for its Da Vinci Code cathedral, the Magna Carta at Lincoln Castle and yet more shopping among its cobbled streets.
