The Limes Campsite is a small, friendly touring and camping site at Great Steeping near Spilsby, sitting where the southern edge of the Lincolnshire Wolds meets the flatter run down to the coast. This is a proper low-key spot: grass pitches for tents, caravans and motorhomes with electric hook-ups, plus a couple of bell tents if you fancy glamping without bringing the kit. Campfires are allowed, which is part of why people book, and the fields stay quiet and dark once the sun goes down. Spilsby and its market town are around 2 miles away, while Skegness, the Gibraltar Point nature reserve and the Lincolnshire coast sit roughly 9 miles east, so you can mix beach days with walks in the Wolds. Bolingbroke Castle and the National Trust's Gunby Estate are both a short drive. Dogs are welcome, though the owners ask that they are small (no bigger than a Labrador or collie) and kept on a lead. It suits couples, families and small groups after countryside, big skies and an easy base for the coast rather than a park stacked with facilities. The Limes is open across the year, and pitches are booked through the campsite's own online booking page.
Yes, campfires are allowed, which is one of the reasons regulars book. The site sits in open countryside at Great Steeping, so evenings are quiet and dark, making it a good place to sit out around the fire after a day on the coast or in the Wolds.
Does The Limes have glamping?
Yes, alongside grass pitches for tents, caravans and motorhomes, the site has bell tents for anyone who wants to glamp without bringing their own gear. They suit couples or families who fancy a night under canvas with a bit more comfort than a standard tent pitch.
Are dogs allowed?
Yes, dogs are welcome, but the owners ask that they are small, no bigger than a Labrador or collie, and kept on a lead around the site. There are plenty of countryside walks from the gate and in the nearby Lincolnshire Wolds for exercising them.
How far is The Limes Campsite from the beach?
The Lincolnshire coast is roughly 9 miles east, with Skegness and the Gibraltar Point nature reserve within easy reach for beach days. Spilsby and its weekly market are about 2 miles away, so you can pick up supplies without a long drive first.
What is there to do nearby?
The campsite sits at the southern tip of the Lincolnshire Wolds, good walking and cycling country. Bolingbroke Castle and the National Trust's Gunby Estate are both a short drive, and the coast at Skegness and Gibraltar Point rounds out days out for a mix of nature and seaside.
Is The Limes open all year and how do I book?
The site operates across the year rather than as a short summer-only campsite. Pitches and the bell tents are reserved through the campsite's own online booking page, where you select your dates and pitch type before confirming and paying for your stay.
