Wagtail Country Park is situated in the peaceful and tranquil Lincolnshire countryside, with breath taking views and amazing sunsets. There are many local tourist attractions in the area including Belton House and Belvoir Castle which are both within a short drive. Together with the Cathedral City of Lincoln and the historic towns of Grantham and Newark, Wagtail Country Park has something to offer for everyone and is open all year round. This pretty site has achieved a David Bellamy Gold award and there is an abundance of wildlife and local countryside walks; you will see deer, hares, rabbits, owls, woodpecker, kingfisher and many varieties of birds including the Wagtail. The park also has two well stocked fishing lakes with a mixture of rudd, tench, roach, carp barble and more. The site has large hard standing pitches, all 10 metres x 10 metres with 16amp electric hook up and screened with shrubs and borders for added privacy, thus creating a spacious feeling. Two shower blocks, one with wet rooms available. Beauty room on site. Dogs are very welcome and will enjoy local nearby walks in the beautiful countryside, and shorter wildlife walks on site around our circular perimeter. Wi-Fi is free (guests can have multiple devices connected).
