About Porky Wrights

Set on a working small holding, home to rare breed pigs, horses, sheep, chickens and turkeys! Located in rural Lincolnshire, just 20 minutes from Boston and 30 minutes from Skegness, there is plenty to explore in the surrounding area, there is even a pub just a 15 minute stroll away so you can truly unwind and not have to think about cooking! Guests will be staying in the Woodpecker shepherd's hut, the only hut on site. It is adult only and fully self-contained with an ensuite, kitchenette, double bed, TV and the log burner and underfloor heating ensure cosy evenings wrapped under a blanket. The private decking is perfect for relaxing and admiring the countryside views, with plenty of outdoor seating as well as a fire pit to keep you warm. The site has brilliant clear skies that are great for stargazing, it's not uncommon to see a shooting star or even the International Space Station passing over! Dan and the team will be on hand to greet you with parking just next to the hut for ease of unpacking your gear. If you wish, the site can arrange accompanied tours around the smallholding to visit the animals, even the rare Middle White Pig! Animal feeding is not permitted, sorry. The site is a haven from wildlife, aside from the resident animals, expect to see barn owls, woodpeckers, buzzards, jays and an array of other birdlife. You may even catch a glimpse of Muntjac deer as they walk along the hedge line at the back of the hut. The site is also 30 minutes from a RAF base so you may also spot some jets or military aircraft flying over. The shepherd's hut is pet free, sorry. Campfires in the designated fire pit are welcome and the site provides disposable BBQs and utensils for guests to use.

Open all year

A note from the site themselves...

Our family run smallholding is our passion and our oasis, we have worked hard over the last years to get to where we are. But, we still have lots yet to achieve!

We love sharing a part of it with our guests so that they can see the important work we do and the conservation we put into the rare breed Middle White pig.

The wildlife and peace are incredible, we look forward to welcoming you soon! Dan and the team.
