97 Skegness

Park Resort, Skegness.

Whilst not our usual sort of stopover, this is excellent value for money at £5 off season rate. The price includes EHU plus use of pool, sauna etc.

96 Chapel St Leonards

Common Farm, MCC CL.

About 2 miles from Chapel SL, this site has a small shower and toilet as well as elsan and fresh water facilities.

95 Lincoln

Massive car park and sloping field. Only elsan, bins and water facilities. This MCC CL is too far off Lincoln to be walked or cycled but safe and private.
Whisby Aqua and Garden Centre. Shops and fishing lakes

94- Retford

Fairly busy pub, The Birches. Easy walk to Asda, town and canal.
Good value meals in pub but TV reception was poor.

93 Roman Road, Chapel st Leonards

The Shambles, small holding. Just 200 yds from the sea and 'The Terrace' seafront car park. Unfortunately the Council is waging war against motorhomers. The site is VERY basic but quite adequate for a couple of nights.

92 Frieston RSPB

Not easy to get to but, once found a wonder spot for watching birds and soaking in nature.

There was no restrictions we could find and i guess a number of bird watchers sleep overnight to catch the 'early worms'!

91 Caister on Sea Beach CP

Beach CP next to Lifebaot Station.

The good news is this CP is right next to the sea and offers a Public WC and is foc Oct-March. The bad news is they appear to be adding height restrictions barriers,

90 Caister on Sea, Old Hall

Now a Hotel, restaurant and bar this was the site of a popular caravan park until recently.

The foc facilites incl EHU are more than you could ask for. The £5 breakfast excellent value for money. would certainly visit again. They are a MCC safeknights location and a Britstop.

89 Norwich

The Camping and Caravanning Club Site

Not that bad, not that noisy either. Not that far from city centre as well. At the end of the disused railway cycle track into Norwich you join the main stream traffic which is both busy and dangerous.

88 Framington Piggot

The Gull P/H
 
On the main road from Norwich to Lodden.

87 Burgh Apton (our spot)

The Street Farm

Retired farmer and Caravanner allowed us to park up on the back yard. The farm has a large and well stocked fishing lake.

86 Burgh Apton

The George and Dragon

Have marked this down as a possible for the future. As it is on the main road, they may have sufficient custom. Needs a phonecall. The Street leading to Burgh Apton.

85 Spalding

The Bell Inn. A fellow WoMoer adn Landlord. MCC CL.

A quiet spot off the beaten track. They are shortly to open a further area as a CCC CL.

84 Surfleet seas end

On the other side of the busy A15 junction is the raod to Seas End. The Sip Inn down there may allow WoMos but we didnt ask this time. The boats and broads were most attractive.

83 Surfleet near Spalding

Riverside Hotel, car park.
 A very nice spot next to the river. Lively and busy pub, frequented by the locals.
As you can see from the roadside view it is next to a very busy road. It was loud.
