Is that the one in Mablethorpe?

I went there a few years ago and it was very lively with lots of evening entertainment, nice clean but basic resturant and a great whetherspoons type pub. It has lots of play areas for kids including a swimming pool I think(?).

In the area, it depends what you are looking for really, there is traditional British seaside in Skegness (arcades and a really good crazy golf course), there is Butlins in Skeg and Fantasy Island in Inglemells - Both got theme park type rides.

If you are looking for something quieter there is an RSPB(?) nature reserve near to Gibraltar point, a seal sancutry in Skegness and inland there are windmills to visit, the air museum at coningsby, stock car racing, and there is nearly always a big car boot at Louth or Spilsby.

Have a look on HERE for some more ideas.

Last year we went for a couple of days. Nice and clean with the town not too far away to walk to.

Skegness ....sigh. Reminds me of the old days with Mum & Dad. Skegness can get very busy on nice days...just a warning.

Hi
I thought the toilets in the club where awful, loo seats missing and dirty.
But the entertainment was good, Mablethorpe was loved by my young kids, little fairground and donkeys.
The site itself all the caravans are in lines and quiet close together, the beach is a long walk away over sand dunes!

its just down the road from Mablethorpe....

whilst your on the Haven site there is a "beach train" that takes you to and from centre of Mablethorpe saves taking the car and paying car parking :money:
